How will Lauyans & Company's SPSS automated vertical storage system improve your operations? There are many tangible benefits that will impact your bottom line when you implement automated vertical storage.

MAXIMIZED CUBIC INVENTORY SPACE
Going vertical with an automated storage system saves a tremendous amount of floor space. The design of the SPSS automated vertical storage system allows product to be stored more densely than conventional shelving allows. Plus, traditional shelving systems require large amounts of space, both for placement and access. Since the SPSS automated vertical storage system extends up, where space is typically unused, it maximizes storage efficiency.

DRAMTICALLY REDUCED LABOR COST
There's no doubt – time saved is money saved. In environments with traditional shelving, employees spend approximately 65% of their time retrieving product, walking aisles, scanning shelves, climbing ladders and scaling mezzanines. Automated vertical storage systems bring product to employees rather than requiring them to travel to it. The optional VSM control software partnered with the SPSS automated vertical storage system improves efficiency by allowing multiple machines to perform round-robin picking and replenishing operations. This approach also allows for the batching of multiple orders at once. The reduction of the manpower required for the management of inventory allows labor resources to be applied more efficiently.

ENHANCED PRODUCTIVITY
The SPSS automated vertical storage system improves productivity as a point of use storage solution. By storing product where it is used, operations are kept stream-lined and moving at peak efficiency. The SPSS gives you the flexibility to store parts where they are needed, rather than a remote area where there is room to accommodate large storage shelving units.

REDUCTION OF INJURIES
The SPSS automated vertical storage system is an ergonomically beneficial solution, because parts are accessed readily, and without the need for manual labor. The weight and bulk of part movement is managed mechanically so workers are not at risk for back problems or other weight bearing injuries.

IMPROVED ORDER ACCURACY
An automated storage system improves order fulfillment accuracy. Parts are pulled by the system, limiting the number of parts from which to select. The optional VSM control software provides part verification and a visual display of parts in the storage tray, reducing the chance of incorrect picks. All of these SPSS benefits lead to improved accuracy and better customer service.

REDUCTION OF INVENTORY SHRINKAGE
Inventory shrinkage problems cut directly into profits, and can be caused by a number of factors. The SPSS automated vertical storage system addresses these issues by improving security and limiting access to inventory. The optional VSM control software also reduces inventory loss by improving picking accuracy.

OPTIMIZED STORAGE EFFICIENCY
The SPSS automated vertical storage system, when combined with the optional VSM control software, has the ability to find the best location for storing parts, to optimize storage efficiency within the system. Traditional shelving storage systems require on-going labor to maintain organization.

ENCLOSED INVENTORY STAYS CLEANER
Parts and products are not the only things collected on traditional shelving units. Dust and debris also accumulate, compromising quality and in many cases, part performance. The enclosed environment of the SPSS automated vertical storage approach protects stored materials from contamination, keeping inventory clean and up to quality standards.

VSM SOFTWARE PROVIDES GREATER EFFICIENCY
The SPSS automated vertical storage system when combined with the optional VSM control software provides even greater efficiency with multiple machine operation, batching, reduced inventory management costs, and improved picking accuracy.
