Vertical lift modules give more benefits thanks to the Ergo-Tech bay

Vertical lift modules designed by Ferretto Spa ensures fast and accurate picking. Operators always work in perfect ergonomics, health and safety on trays as deep as 1030 mm.

Looking for a solution that guarantees more flow than an external double bay, but saves floor space and provides a larger surface area for picking operations? Here it is, an exclusive solution by Ferretto Spa. We are talking about the Ergo-Tech bay, one of the six picking bay models available for the Vertimag automatic vertical storage system. As the name suggests, this dual-level system has been designed by the company’s engineering team with the primary goal of ensuring perfect ergonomics in picking operations and greater flexibility for the materials to be stored. In fact, the presence of a second lift inside the structure makes it possible to manage increased flows of a double bay, while maintaining the same overall dimensions of a vertical lift modules with a single or double internal bay. In this way, the Ergo-Tech bay allows operators to work always at the same height with real advantages in terms of speed, efficiency, safety and storage capacity.

Improved picking from higher and deeper trays

The constant height of the work surface allows the operator to work comfortably and precisely on deeper trays – even up to one meter – than with other models. The operator – guided by the various accessories available, such as the laser pointer or the alphanumeric LED bar – can quickly and easily pick up the entire surface of the tray, which is thus fully utilized in its depth. Owing to its flexibility, Vertimag can manage small and medium-sized items in any shape and weight, thus meeting the logistics needs of companies in the most different industrial sectors.

Faster operations thanks to the special lifting system

With the Ergo-Tech bay, the products are automatically delivered at a single height from the ground, through an internal lifting device. While the operator picks on ‘tray 1’, the system prepares ‘tray 2’ below the one in which work is being done. Once the picking and placing operations have been completed, the tray on which the operator has worked is withdrawn and the device lifts the next one to the same level. Picking thus becomes faster, ensuring increased flow than an internal double bay.

An advantage that becomes even more significant in warehouses with several bays. In fact, the presence of Ergo-Tech frees up a lift and makes it available on another bay: at the same time, a second operator can thus work in full autonomy on another floor, without waiting or wasting time.

Ergo-Tech improves health and safety at work

As mentioned, ergonomics is one of the main advantages of the Ergo-Tech bay, in fact operators work at an optimal height, in full compliance with operational and safety rules. In fact, no special lifting or bending movements are needed when it comes to picking and handling the material. This increases productivity and, thanks also to the presence of vertical security barriers and an automatic shutter, ensures the best working conditions for the personnel.

Using Ergo-Tech therefore also improves the health and safety of operators.

Why Ergo-Tech

Fast operations, space optimization, safety for goods and operators. Thanks to its features, the Ergo-Tech bay enhances the advantages that the Vertimag automatic vertical  storage system offers companies in all industry sectors through more precise, faster and more efficient picking. Choosing Ergo-Tech means being able to ensure the flows of a double bay while at the same time guaranteeing flexibility in material handling and a smaller footprint. These added values make it the ideal solution, in particular in case of massive picking, intensive handling and products in different shapes, sizes and weights.

Choosing Ergo-Tech means in fact being able to count on:

  • higher flow rates compared to a double bay
  • greater flexibility in material handling
  • a saving in floor space
  • comfortable picking on trays as deep as 1030 mm
  • health and safety thanks to perfect ergonomics.
