Vidir Solutions, a leading North American manufacturer of automated storage and retrieval systems, highlights the Tire Carousel, a motorized vertical carousel engineered to maximize storage capacity, improve workplace safety, and streamline tire handling for automotive, warehousing, and retail environments. Purpose-built for high-density tire storage and retrieval, the Tire Carousel makes full use of overhead space to save up to 80 percent of floor space while securely storing as many as 352 tires on a single standard unit.

The Tire Carousel is designed to deliver every tire directly to the operator at a comfortable, ergonomic working height. This reduces the risk of injuries caused by bending, lifting, and pulling from unsafe positions, while also ensuring faster and easier retrieval of inventory. Its compact footprint of only 60 square feet makes it an ideal solution for facilities with limited storage space, transforming previously underutilized vertical space into efficient storage capacity.

Built with versatility in mind, the Tire Carousel accommodates tire sizes up to 44 inches in standard models and is capable of storing both tires with rims and those without. Each unit features carriers made of three pipes in a triangular configuration that cradle the tires securely in place. A limiter bar provides both support and a clear guide for determining which tire sizes will fit within the carousel. To improve organization further, each carrier comes standard with two tire dividers, which can be used to separate tire types and ensure quick identification. The system supports loads of up to 2,000 pounds per carrier, with a maximum total load capacity of 18,000 pounds, and is designed to operate reliably even in high-demand applications. With a retrieval speed of 21 feet per minute, the carousel provides rapid access to inventory while maintaining smooth and consistent operation.

The Tire Carousel is also engineered for workplace safety and security. Standard push-button controls simplify operation, while security can be enhanced through an integrated keypad and optional security gates to limit access to authorized personnel. In addition, the system is available in multiple RAL colors and can be customized to fit unique facility specifications, including a range of width, height, and depth options. By tailoring each unit to the specific needs of the application, organizations can ensure maximum efficiency and seamless integration into existing workflows.

Engineered for continuous use in demanding automotive dealerships, tire shops, distribution centers, and retail environments, the Tire Carousel provides a reliable, space-saving solution that reclaims floor space, safeguards employees, and improves operational efficiency.
