The Vaux Freight
Movement SystemTM
This first-of-its-kind freight movement system consists of the Vaux MP™, MP Coupler and Vaux OS. The Vaux MP and MP Coupler enable freight handling operators to load and unload full trailers rapidly, and they connect seamlessly into warehouse operations through the Vaux OS. Gain full visibility into warehouse operations for better decision making.
Vaux MP
This highly customizable mobile freight platform fits inside a trailer and is pulled out and placed safely on the dock in one swift movement. They come in multiple sizes.
MP Coupler
Enables standard material handling equipment to move the MP. With a flexible turn radius, move the MP to the best location in the warehouse for unloading.
Vaux OS
The Vaux OS integrates easily with existing warehouse management systems (WMS) through APIs, giving you real-time visibility and creating efficiencies that are game-changing for warehouse operations.
Designed to improve productivity and throughput
Vaux freight movement technology creates efficiencies and orchestrates seamless warehouse operations to optimize intralogistics processes. It’s a difference-maker for companies faced with rising costs, disrupted supply chains, and the need to operate more sustainably.
Vaux makes it easier to do business
The opportunities for speed, efficiency, safety, visibility, control and sustainability improvements are significant.
Increase Throughput
Vaux offers real-time visibility into freight moves and warehouse operations, enabling better decision-making and empowering more efficient management of intralogistics operations.
Reduce Damage
Loose and palletized freight can be staged on the MP, loaded directly onto the trailer, pulled off, and put away with minimal touches. Less freight touches mean fewer opportunities for damage.
Safer Environment
Unload the entire contents of a trailer in just one swift movement, without the repetitive movement of forklifts in and out of trailers.
A more sustainable supply chain
Build efficiencies that address your important sustainability goals. With the Vaux MP, you can load and unload trailers in just minutes. That means drivers aren’t left idling, docks don’t get congested and freight keeps moving. MPs come equipped with a configurable racking system that enables trailers to be fully loaded in the most optimal way, cutting down on empty miles and partially full shipments while simultaneously reducing GHG emissions. When it’s time for equipment rebalancing, they can be broken down and stacked multiple times into a single trailer, reducing the number of trucks on the road. Plus, the visibility Vaux OS offers makes an impact — giving insights into freight movement in warehouses to help ensure efficient equipment utilization and minimize empty blade time and fuel consumption.
