Advanced AIT Library Family

There are a variety of AIT based libraries available - from the compact CLS series which fits into a small 2U-high package, to the RLS series of rackmount libraries, all the way to the TLS series which scales from 12 to 600-slots. Each series answers different needs and provides AIT tape automation for backup, archive, HSM and storage management applications.

These libraries are supported by all major software suppliers, as well, the units can be set to emulate other tape libraries to ensure compatibility with existing applications and environments.

Belts and pulleys have been eliminated within the mechanisms and have been replaced with brushless DC motors and a closed-loop motion control system to ensure the ultimate in library reliability.
