Abstract: A logistics tower includes a vertical storage cell column, a vertical retrieval system and a horizontal shuttle system. The vertical storage cell column includes an elevator shaft extending therethrough and a plurality of storage modules arranged around the elevator shaft. The vertical retrieval system includes a winch and a robotic bin handier. The robotic bin handler is moveably by the winch within the elevator shaft of the vertical storage cell column. The robotic bin handler includes a carnage assembly that extends inwardly and outwardly therefrom to access and retrieve storage bins from the storage modules arranged around the elevator shaft. The carriage assembly includes a gripping assembly that selectively couples and decouples the storage bin to the carriage of the robotic bin handler. The vertical retrieval system lowers the storage bin coupled to the carriage assembly to a. robotic shuttle situated on the horizontal shuttle system.
