In the aerospace industry, precision and protection are non-negotiable—especially when it comes to storing high-value materials like aluminum sheets. These sheets demand careful handling to avoid scratches, corrosion, or warping, which can compromise their performance in critical applications. Herochu, a leader in industrial storage solutions, addresses this need with its PLC-Controlled Automatic Sheet Storage system: a durable, anti-rust roll cantilever rack engineered specifically for aerospace aluminum sheets and heavy-duty industrial use.
Engineered for Aerospace Precision: Core Features
Aerospace aluminum sheets require storage solutions that prioritize organization, safety, and material integrity. Herochu’s roll cantilever rack delivers on all fronts with a design built to tackle the unique challenges of industrial sheet storage.
At its foundation is a reinforced metal frame where laminates are laser-welded to the structure. This precision welding ensures exceptional impact resistance, keeping the rack deformation-free even under long-term heavy loads—critical for supporting thick aluminum sheets that can weigh several tons. Unlike flimsy alternatives, Herochu’s racks maintain structural integrity, preventing sagging or shifting that could damage stored materials.
Chaos in storage areas leads to lost time and material waste, but Herochu’s design eliminates this with a layered, hanging structure that maximizes capacity. The large storage space, combined with intuitive organization, means aerospace teams no longer waste hours searching for specific sheet sizes. Each layer is designed to keep sheets separated, reducing friction and scratches that could ruin expensive aluminum materials.
PLC Control: Automation That Enhances Efficiency
What truly sets Herochu’s system apart is its PLC-controlled automatic operation. Equipped with advanced PLC frequency conversion control, the rack streamlines material handling by automating sheet retrieval and placement. This reduces reliance on manual labor, minimizing the risk of human error and accidental damage to sensitive aerospace materials. Whether integrated with forklifts or other lifting equipment, the automated system ensures precise, smooth movement—critical for maintaining the quality of aluminum sheets used in aircraft manufacturing.
Durability & Anti-Rust Protection for Longevity
Aerospace environments often expose storage equipment to moisture, humidity, and industrial chemicals, making corrosion a constant threat. Herochu combats this with a heavy-duty carbon steel construction paired with robust surface treatments. The racks feature a powder-coated finish and varnished surfaces, creating a barrier against rust and corrosion. This anti-rust protection ensures the rack remains durable even in demanding industrial settings, extending its lifespan and safeguarding the integrity of stored aluminum sheets.
Modular Expansion & Customization for Unique Needs
Every aerospace facility has unique storage requirements, depending on sheet sizes, production volumes, and workspace layouts. Herochu’s roll cantilever racks offer modular expansion and extensive customization options to adapt to these needs. Customers can tailor the rack’s size, drawer count (3-8 layers), and load rating to match their specific materials—whether storing thin aerospace-grade aluminum or thicker industrial sheets.
The YC-B3015 standard model exemplifies this flexibility, with options like external dimensions ranging from 350522802000mm to 650522802500mm. Each layer supports up to 3 tons, with configurations like 5+1 layers to maximize vertical space. For facilities with color-coding protocols, Herochu offers customizable colors, with standard options including orange and grey for high visibility in busy industrial environments.
Specifications That Meet Industrial Demands
Herochu’s commitment to quality is evident in its detailed specifications. The YC-B3015 series boasts a single-layer load capacity of 3 tons, ensuring it handles even the heaviest aerospace sheets. The rack’s top floor height (up to 2250mm) accommodates tall materials, while the width when open (3515mm to 4015mm) provides ample access for forklifts. These dimensions strike a balance between space efficiency and accessibility, making the rack suitable for both large warehouses and compact production floors.
