Modula Inc<\/a>., a leading manufacturer of automated storage and retrieval solutions, announces the official launch of Modula Flexibox, its latest innovation in automated storage and retrieval systems. Unveiled at ProMat 2025 (March 17-20) in Chicago, IL, Flexibox is now available to businesses looking to potentially enhance order fulfillment operations with high-speed picking and scalable automation. Designed for retail, e-commerce, automotive, and distribution industries, Flexibox enables companies to streamline warehouse operations with no disruption to existing workflows.<\/p>\nHow Flexibox Works<\/p>\n
Built on Vertical Lift Module (VLM) technology, Flexibox is designed for maximum efficiency, featuring a central elevator with a telescopic fork capable of retrieving up to nine bins simultaneously. Integrated with advanced WMS software, Flexibox groups multiple order references within a single tray, minimizing operator wait times and accelerating order fulfillment.<\/p>\n
When an order is received, Flexibox analyzes all order lines and retrieves the required bins using its central elevator. These bins are placed on a service tray that is delivered directly to the picking bay, allowing operators to complete multiple order lines in a single cycle. While one tray is being processed, the system simultaneously prepares the next one, ensuring an uninterrupted workflow and maintaining a high-speed picking rate.<\/p>\n
Flexibox offers flexibility with internal and external bay configurations, available in single or dual delivery levels to suit various operational needs. The internal bay optimizes floor space, making it ideal for compact environments, while the external bay maximizes picking speed. A single delivery level ensures ergonomic picking at an optimal height, while the dual delivery level\u00a0aims to enhance efficiency for high-demand workflows.<\/p>\n
With Smart Preparation, Flexibox automates order processing during idle periods by pre-arranging trays in advance. Controlled by WMS, the system prepares “ready-to-pick” trays based on incoming orders, reducing waiting times and streamlining workflows. Additionally, Flexibox maximizes vertical storage, reaching heights of up to 65 feet, accommodating hundreds of bins while freeing up valuable floor space.<\/p>\n
What Sets Flexibox Apart<\/p>\n
Flexibox has been designed with the aim to meet the growing demand for faster, more efficient order fulfillment while keeping automation accessible to businesses of all sizes.<\/p>\n
“Flexibox represents a major step forward in high-speed order fulfillment,” said David Lind, Sales Director of Modula Inc. “Designed to adapt to the ever-changing needs of modern warehouses, it allows businesses to automate efficiently, scale flexibly, and increase picking throughput without major infrastructure changes.”<\/p>\n
Some of its key potential benefits include:<\/p>\n
High-Speed Picking\u00a0\u2013 Handles up to 180 bins per hour, aiming to increase throughput and reducing order processing times.Scalable & Flexible\u00a0\u2013 Flexibox allows companies to automate at own pace, without requiring major facility modifications.Optimized Space Utilization\u00a0\u2013\u00a0Compact footprint with vertical storage capabilities, maximizing warehouse efficiency.Ergonomic & User-Friendly\u00a0\u2013 Designed for improved operator experience, aiming for ease of use and reducing strain during picking operations.Seamless Integration\u00a0\u2013 Fully compatible with Modula WMS and other warehouse automation systems, including conveyors, AMRs, and AGVs.<\/p>\n
