Mini Load ASRS
Mini Load ASRS (Automated Storage and Retrieval System) is a type of goods-to-person system that revolutionizes warehouse operations. This system uses automated robots or cranes to retrieve and transport individual items or small load units from storage to the picking station, eliminating manual picking and reducing errors while increasing productivity.
Mini Load ASRS stands out for its efficiency and versatility. Unlike traditional person-to-goods picking, this system delivers items directly to the operator, saving time and reducing physical strain, thus minimizing injury risks. It is applicable in various industries, including e-commerce, retail, pharmaceuticals, and automotive, handling a wide range of products from small items to larger load units. Integration with warehouse management software enhances inventory control and order fulfillment efficiency.
Implementing Mini Load ASRS can lead to improved order accuracy, faster order processing, and increased warehouse space utilization. By automating storage and retrieval, businesses can optimize operations, reduce labor costs, and enhance customer satisfaction.

Vertical Lift Module
A Vertical Lift Module (VLM) is an automated storage and retrieval system designed to maximize space utilization and improve order-picking efficiency. Ideal for warehouses and distribution centers with high inventory volumes, VLMs consist of two parallel columns of trays or shelves accessed by an automated lift that moves up and down to retrieve or store items. Controlled by a computerized system, VLMs optimize storage space and keep track of inventory.
VLMs utilize vertical space, allowing more items to be stored in a smaller footprint. Items are brought directly to the operator, eliminating manual searching and walking through aisles, speeding up order picking.
Designed with safety features like light curtains and emergency stop buttons, VLMs protect operators and inventory from accidents. Integrated computerized systems provide real-time inventory tracking, ensuring accurate stock levels and reducing stockouts or overstocking risks.
VLMs have diverse applications, benefiting e-commerce fulfillment centers, manufacturing facilities, healthcare facilities, and retail distribution centers by enhancing storage efficiency, order-picking speed, and inventory control.

A Robotic Goods-To-Person Solution
AMRs & AGVs
Autonomous Mobile Robots (AMRs) and Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) are innovative solutions that significantly enhance the efficiency of goods-to-person picking in storage facilities. AMRs navigate autonomously using advanced sensors and algorithms, transporting goods directly to pickers and reducing travel time. AGVs, guided by predefined routes, transport goods from storage to picking stations and are equipped with sensors for safe operation.
Both AMRs and AGVs offer numerous benefits for goods-to-person picking, including continuous operation without breaks, handling heavy loads, reducing worker injury risks, and optimizing picking processes through real-time data adjustments. At Storage Solutions, we offer a range of AMRs and AGVs designed to enhance goods-to-person picking processes. Our solutions are built with the latest technology and customizable to meet your warehouse’s unique needs.

Goods-To-Person At Full Efficiency
Micro-Fulfillment Facilities
Micro-fulfillment is a modern warehousing and order fulfillment strategy leveraging automation to optimize picking and packing processes. It uses compact, high-density storage systems and automated robots or conveyors to bring items to workers, significantly reducing picking time and increasing productivity.
Micro-fulfillment is ideal for e-commerce businesses and retailers with high order volumes needing quick and accurate fulfillment. With the rise of online shopping, customers expect fast and reliable delivery, and micro-fulfillment enables businesses to meet these demands, fulfilling orders faster than traditional manual methods.
Goods-to-person solutions are essential for micro-fulfillment, enabling efficient and accurate order fulfillment. Items stored in compact systems are retrieved by robots or conveyors and delivered to workers at their stations, eliminating long-distance traversal and reducing errors, thus increasing productivity.
At Storage Solutions, our design team can guide you toward fully efficient micro-fulfillment systems designed to streamline your operations and meet the demands of high-volume order fulfillment.
