This spring, Mouser finished installation of 120 vertical lift modules (VLMs), claimed to be the largest VLM installation in the world.

VLMs are basically huge vertical filing cabinets, complete with shelves and an automated extractor to bring components to an employee’s workstation. In addition to boosting efficiency and floor space, it can cut down an employee’s walking time by 45% or more.

Besides the huge VLM installation, Mouser’s distribution facility features several Ultipack and I-Pack machines, an automated system for sealing and labeling shipments that can process up to 14 orders per minute, as well as an OPEX Perfect Pick system for consolidation, and an AutoStore system.
