Big news from inside the Jarvis Canada warehouse! We’ve added a new team member — and while it doesn’t drink coffee or take lunch breaks, it might just be the hardest worker in the building. Meet the SSI Schäfer LogiMat Vertical Lift Module (VLM) — our new automated storage system that’s transforming how we handle inventory, streamline operations, and make the most of our space.
It’s tall, it’s smart, and it’s fast. Think of it as a futuristic elevator that always knows exactly where every single part lives. And we’re pretty excited about what it means for our team — and for you.
Meet the LogiMat — The Elevator That Never Sleeps
So, what exactly is a LogiMat? Imagine a giant vending machine that delivers tools, parts, or equipment right to you at the push of a button. No ladders. No hunting down bins. No wasted steps.
The LogiMat is a vertical lift module, which means it stores items in trays stacked all the way up to the ceiling. When we need something, the machine’s internal elevator zooms up, grabs the tray, and brings it straight down to an operator at an ergonomic workstation.
The result? We can now store up to 90% more inventory in the same footprint as traditional shelving. It’s like turning one room into ten!
Why We Installed It — and Why We’re So Excited
At Jarvis Canada, we’re always looking for ways to be more efficient and innovative — not just for ourselves, but for our customers too.
Our new LogiMat VLM system gives us better inventory control, faster access to parts, and a huge boost in storage capacity. We can now hold more products than ever before, which means fewer backorders, faster deliveries, and more satisfied customers.
No more warehouse hide-and-seek. Every item knows exactly where it lives. The system even tracks inventory automatically, so we always know what’s in stock and where it’s located.
And here’s a fun perk: even though we’re storing more, we’ve freed up floor space. More room to move, more room to grow, and maybe even more room for coffee breaks!
Cool Features You’ll Want to Geek Out About
Now, let’s talk about the fun stuff — because this machine is loaded with features that would make any tech lover grin.
Smart Elevator Brain: The LogiMat automatically finds the right tray and brings it to the operator in seconds.
Height Optimization Magic: It measures every tray and adjusts their placement in real time, packing everything together like a perfect game of Tetris.
Laser-Guided Picking: Built-in laser pointers highlight the exact part to pick. It’s like a sci-fi movie, but with bolts and bearings instead of aliens.
Ergonomic Design: Everything is delivered at waist height — no more bending, reaching, or climbing.
Heavy Lifting Power: Each tray can hold up to 700 kilograms! Yet, the system runs quietly and smoothly all day long.
It’s strong, smart, and surprisingly elegant.
How It’s Changing Our Day-to-Day
For our warehouse team, the LogiMat has been a total game-changer. The days of endless walking, searching, and ladder climbing are gone.
Now, when someone needs a part, the LogiMat simply brings it to them. No wasted steps, no guesswork, and no delays. It’s efficient, fast, and — honestly — kind of fun to watch in action.
The system also keeps things accurate. With digital controls and guided picking lights, errors have dropped dramatically. Plus, the time saved means our staff can focus more on serving customers and preparing orders — not searching shelves.
Why It Matters for You
You might be wondering — how does all this cool tech help you?
Here’s how:
Faster Order Turnaround: We can pick and ship orders more quickly.
Better Stock Control: We know what’s available in real time — no more surprises.
More Inventory Variety: With more storage space, we can keep a wider range of products on hand.
That means you get your equipment faster, with fewer delays, and with the same reliability you’ve come to expect from Jarvis Canada.
Looking Ahead — This Is Just the Beginning
Installing the LogiMat VLM is a big leap forward for us — but it’s only one step in our ongoing journey toward smarter, more efficient operations.
From our production lines to our warehouse systems, Jarvis Canada is always looking for ways to innovate and improve. The LogiMat is proof of that commitment.
We’re lifting our game — literally and figuratively — to make sure our customers continue to get the very best in equipment, service, and reliability.
So, next time you get an order from Jarvis Canada, know that somewhere behind the scenes, a high-tech tower just raced up, grabbed your part, and sent it on its way… all before the coffee finished brewing!
