Systems and Technology
Today’s most efficient warehouses run on integrated technology—from automated storage and retrieval systems to intelligent inventory tracking and digital warehouse control. The Systems & Technology pillar unites everything that drives automation, visibility, and data-backed decision-making.
At Vertical Storage USA, we connect physical storage systems with smart software and controls that help your facility move faster, safer, and more efficiently.
Intralogistics focuses on the internal flow of materials and goods inside your facility—from how items are stored and picked to how they move between zones, workstations, and shipping. When you layer automation onto intralogistics, you get integrated systems of AS/RS, Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs), carousels, conveyors, AMRs, and warehouse software that all work together to move product with less labor and greater precision.
Vertical Storage USA designs intralogistics automation solutions that connect storage equipment, robotics, and software into one coordinated ecosystem. From goods-to-person picking and high-density storage to real-time tracking and analytics, we help turn disconnected warehouse processes into a streamlined, intelligent material flow.
What Is Warehouse Technology?
Warehouse technology refers to the software, automation, robotics, and digital systems that improve how goods move through a facility. Modern “technology-enabled warehouses” use tools like Automated Storage and Retrieval Systems (AS/RS), Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs), carousels, conveyor sortation systems, and warehouse automation software to streamline inventory flow, reduce labor, and increase order accuracy.
At Vertical Storage USA, we design warehouse technology ecosystems that connect smart equipment with platforms like WMS, WES, and WCS—giving operators real-time visibility into inventory, throughput, and machine-to-operator workflows. From automated storage systems to RackBot goods-to-person robotics, our solutions help warehouses operate faster, safer, and with greater precision.

Intralogistics is the term for everything that happens inside your four walls: the way goods are stored, handled, retrieved, and transported between zones. Intralogistics technology and automation bring together AS/RS, VLMs, carousels, AMRs, conveyors, and warehouse software so that every movement—from putaway to picking and shipping—is optimized, tracked, and controlled.
Automatic Distribution and Automation Services
Automatic distribution and automation services bring together the technologies, software, and workflows that automate how goods move through a warehouse—from receiving and putaway to storage, picking, packing, and shipping. Instead of relying on manual labor and disconnected processes, these systems create a coordinated, end-to-end material flow that improves speed, accuracy, and consistency.
At the core of automatic distribution are automation tools like AS/RS systems, Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs), carousels, conveyors, sortation systems, AMRs, and warehouse robotics. These work alongside software platforms such as WMS, WES, and WCS to manage inventory, direct order fulfillment, monitor equipment, and orchestrate warehouse tasks in real time.
Leading Companies in Material Handling System Integration
The material handling integration landscape includes major global automation providers such as Dematic, Daifuku, Honeywell Intelligrated, Swisslog, SSI Schaefer, TGW Logistics, BEUMER Group, and KNAPP—companies widely recognized for large-scale AS/RS deployments, robotics, sortation automation, and enterprise-level warehouse software integration. While these global organizations specialize in high-volume distribution facilities and multi-site automation programs, many U.S. warehouses benefit more from a partner that can deliver automation with greater speed, flexibility, and cost-efficiency. This is where Vertical Storage USA stands out.
As a leading U.S. material handling system integrator, Vertical Storage USA designs unified automation ecosystems that bring together advanced storage technologies—including AS/RS systems, Vertical Lift Modules, and Vertical Carousels and Horizontal Carousels—with robotics such as RackBot goods-to-person automation and integrated material handling equipment like conveyors and sortation technologies. These systems are tied together through powerful warehouse software platforms, including WMS, WES, and WCS solutions that provide real-time visibility, data-driven decision-making, and coordinated operational control.
By unifying automated storage, robotics, software, and conveyor-based movement into a single connected environment, Vertical Storage USA helps warehouses improve storage density, accelerate picking and order fulfillment, reduce labor dependency, and optimize end-to-end distribution workflows. Whether the goal is to expand capacity, streamline intralogistics, automate replenishment, or build a future-ready warehouse, Vertical Storage USA delivers tailored material handling solutions that align with each facility’s space, throughput, and operational objectives.
Why Systems and Technology Matters
Data-driven decisions
Monitor KPIs in real-time to optimize flow and accuracy.
Scalable
Start with a single VLM or Carousel, then expand to full AS/RS Systems
Reduced labor cost
Automated storage and picking systems replace walk-and-pick inefficiencies.
Increased throughput
Integrated Light-Directed Picking and robotics accelerate order fulfillment.
Warehouse Automation Software
Warehouse automation software combines robotics, automated storage systems, conveyors, sensors, and data into a single control layer that directs real-time warehouse activity. This software typically operates through a Warehouse Execution System (WES) or Warehouse Control System (WCS), orchestrating tasks like inventory movement, picking sequences, replenishment, and machine-to-operator workflows.
Automation software bridges your equipment with your data. It connects AS/RS machines, Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs), carousels, and robotics with WMS or ERP platforms—improving visibility, reducing manual touches, and optimizing throughput. At Vertical Storage USA, we design warehouse automation systems that integrate seamlessly with WES, WCS, and inventory software to support faster, safer, and more efficient operations.
Conveyor & Sortation Systems
Conveyor and automated sortation systems use synchronized belts, sensors, barcode scanners, and software-driven diverters to move, track, and route items throughout a warehouse. Each item is identified at an induction point—via barcode, RFID, or vision scanning—and the system’s WMS/WES/WCS determines the correct destination. As items travel through the conveyor network, sortation mechanisms such as sliding-shoe, pop-up wheel, tilt-tray, or cross-belt modules divert them precisely at the right moment.
Vertical Storage USA integrates conveyor and sortation technology with Vertical Lift Modules (VLMs), vertical carousels, horizontal carousels, RackBot goods-to-person robots, and AS/RS systems to create fully automated picking and routing workflows. These conveyor modules support high-volume e-commerce, manufacturing, and distribution environments by reducing manual touches, increasing accuracy, and enabling predictable, high-speed order fulfillment.
Our conveyor sortation systems integrate directly with inventory management software and warehouse control platforms, providing real-time visibility into item movement, bottlenecks, and throughput. Whether you’re scaling outbound shipping lanes or automating internal picking, conveyor sortation ensures products reach the right location at the right time—with minimal labor and maximum efficiency.
