August 19, 2002—Both vertical and horizontal delivery speeds of Remstar’s Shuttle Vertical Lift Module (VLM) tray are fully discrete and variable to protect sensitive inventory. The delivery speed of a tray can be changed from 10% to 100% of its maximum speed. Each tray can be individually set for a different delivery speed, allowing highly sensitive and durable products to be stored in the same VLM.
For extremely sensitive items, the steel trays can be set as low as 10% of the maximum tray delivery speed. Remstar claims that a full glass of water on a tray can be stored and delivered at 10% maximum speed without spilling a drop.
The Shuttle VLM is an enclosed system of vertically arranged trays, extraction platform, and computerized controls for automated retrieval of stored materials and promised floor space savings up to 75%. The Shuttle VLM accommodates material of varying widths and heights while providing maximum storage flexibility. It can store up to 2,000 lbs. per tray with a total maximum payload of 88,000 lbs. The operator can be presented with parts and inventory at maximum speeds, increasing operator productivity. For more information visit Remstar or call 800/639-5805.
