Modula MX - Lift
The Modula Lift system is based on the concept of vertical storage, which makes it possible to save up to 90% of floor space compared to traditional methods. The installation can reach a height of 21 meters, and its total load capacity is up to 90,000 kg. Inside the system, pallets are moved by means of an automatic lift and delivered to the picking window (station), which significantly simplifies access to goods.
- Space saving: Freeing up to 90% of occupied warehouse floor space by using the full available height of the room.
- Increased productivity: Retrieval speed can reach 120 pallets per hour (depending on the configuration).
- Safety and ergonomics: The operator works in safe and ergonomic conditions, as confirmed by TÜV certification.
- Accuracy and control: Integration with Modula WMS software makes it possible to fully control inventory, track the movement of goods, and integrate with the company's ERP systems.
- Configuration flexibility: Various types of picking stations are available (internal, external, single or double). The double-delivery system allows the operator to handle one pallet while the next one is already being prepared by the lift.
- Protection of goods: Materials are stored in a clean and protected environment, reducing the risk of damage or theft.
- Energy efficiency: Minimal energy consumption during operation.
What can be stored:
- Spare parts and tools (drills, mechanical tools).
- Small parts, fasteners, and fittings.
- Finished products and semi-finished products.
- Pharmaceuticals, cosmetics, and consumables.
- Electronics, coils, and electrical components.
- Bottled liquids, labels, boxes, and much more.
- Industry: Automotive, metallurgy, mechanical engineering, aerospace industry.
- Medicine: Chemical, pharmaceutical, and biomedical industries.
- Retail: Supermarkets, logistics centers, packaging, and distribution of consumer goods.
- Specialized sectors: Defense industry, energy, furniture, ceramics, and jewelry production.
The system is also ideally suited for integration with other technologies, such as anthropomorphic robots, conveyors, and Put-To-Light systems, creating fully automated work cycles.

Modula is a visionary company, with the digitalization of processes as one of its core strengths. Over the years, it has opted for 100% Modula production according to a robust strategy of automation of production lines and insourcing of manufacturing and process know-how. This has made the company stronger in terms of product quality, market competitiveness, and process knowledge.
Modula has chosen to focus on the vertical production of a single type of product and has always dedicated significant resources to research and development. Consequently, it has developed a wide range of models and configurations at its warehouses. Foresight in investment has resulted in the dedication of over €150 million to state-of-the-art production facilities in Italy, the United States, and China.
Production Process
Everything happens automatically. Starting with the cutting of panels directly from rolls of sheet steel, production moves swiftly through to finished components. The flow of single parts, kits, or batches depends on specific orders. Production is managed just-in-time and monitored step-by-step by the proprietary MPS (Modula Production System) software.
This software manages requirements linked to sales orders and provides full control over the progress of each order via an integrated barcode reader system. MPS communicates with MRP and ERP systems for the automatic scheduling of work requests. This interconnection via robots and software allows for reduced costs, increased productivity, and real-time control.
