High-Density Automated Storage in a Small Footprint
Modula SLIM is a compact vertical lift module that delivers the same advanced automated storage technology as the Modula Lift—optimized for facilities with limited floor space or height constraints. Designed for speed, accuracy, and flexibility, Modula SLIM allows businesses to store more inventory, recover valuable floor space, and improve picking productivity without expanding their facility.
Ideal for manufacturing, MRO, electronics, medical, retail, and emerging technology environments, Modula SLIM combines high-density vertical storage, goods-to-person automation, and real-time inventory control in a narrow footprint.
Modula SLIM uses the same proven vertical storage technology found in larger Modula Lift systems but in a significantly smaller footprint. This makes it the ideal solution for tight spaces, mezzanines, production areas, and existing facilities where traditional storage systems are inefficient or impractical.
The system is capable of storing a wide variety of materials, including:
- Containers, boxes, bins, cartons, and cases
- Small parts and spare parts
- Coils, bottles, and loose materials
- High-value or controlled inventory
With a minimum depth of 66 inches and a minimum height of just over 7 feet, Modula SLIM provides maximum storage density while preserving valuable floor space.
Quick To Install And Easy To Use
The Modula SLIM is partially pre-assembled which means it's easy to ship and quick to install. This VLM can be set up and ready for operation within 48 hours. The intuitive touchscreen interface and simple controls are at the correct ergonomic levels and easy for any operator to use.

How Modula SLIM Works
Modula SLIM is an automated vertical lift module that stores inventory on trays arranged vertically inside an enclosed steel structure. When an item is requested, an internal extractor retrieves the correct tray and delivers it to an ergonomic picking bay.
The system is powered by Modula WMS software, which manages inventory locations, access permissions, and picking workflows in real time. Operators interact with the system through an intuitive touchscreen interface that guides them step by step, reducing errors and training time.
Modula SLIM can also integrate directly with your ERP or warehouse management system for seamless inventory synchronization.
What Can It Do For You?
Recover valuable floor space while optimizing storage density. Materials are accessible to all operators quickly and ergonomically which reduces pick and travel times. Manage inventory stored in Modula SLIM in real-time and easily integrate with your company's ERP system. Maintain control of inventory and restocking requirements while controlling who has access to the inventory. Reduce errors through the thorough and guided process within the interactive interface.
