Vidir’s Textile Carousel is an automated vertical carousel that stores and retrieves rolled goods efficiently and ergonomically. The motorized textile carousel is designed to effectively accommodate a wide variety of fabric rolls including woven, non-woven, knitted, synthetic, netting, and technical fabrics (such as Gore-Tex and Gannex) in a broad range of widths, diameters and sizes.
The automated storage system utilizes the vertical space in retail stores, manufacturing operations, or warehouses and brings the desired roll to the operator’s level, eliminating the need to manually handle textile rolls and improves both productivity and safety.
The Textile Carousel increases storage capacity by applying the Product-To-Operator principle in underutilized overhead space.
Vidir's Textile Carousel may be commonly used as either a storage unit or integrated into production lines. Either application benefits from the increased efficiencies that a vertical carousel provides, whether the result is increased output from almost negligible roll changeover times or the potential realized by automating storage and real-time inventory tracking.
Mechanical storage eliminates wasteful and potentially harmful steps for stock and retrieving rolled materials. It accomplishes this by automating retrieval and presenting rolls at an ergonomic height reducing unnecessary bending, walking, lifting, and pushing and reducing work-related injuries.
Vidir's Textile Carousel can be equipped with one of Vidir's various inventory control solutions which greatly reduce retrieval times and provide real-time inventory data.
