Herochu Cantilever Racking System: Engineered for Efficient Long-Goods Storage

For warehouses, manufacturing plants, and industrial facilities grappling with the challenge of storing lengthy, bulky items—from steel pipes and wooden boards to plastic tubes and metal profiles—the Herochu Cantilever Racking System redefines efficiency. Built to eliminate the frustrations of traditional storage (narrow aisles, cumbersome restacking, wasted space), this system combines robust engineering with flexible customization, ensuring it adapts to your workshop’s unique needs. Certified to meet global quality standards (CE, EU, ISO 9001) and starting at just $2,998, it’s a cost-effective investment that streamlines operations, enhances safety, and maximizes usable space.

Standard Models: Built for Heavy-Duty Versatility

Herochu offers four pre-engineered cantilever racking models, each designed to handle varying load capacities and profile lengths—from 6 meters to 12 meters. All models feature a 4+1 layer configuration (4 primary storage layers plus 1 auxiliary layer) to boost storage density, with options for unilateral or bilateral assistance to match your workflow. Below is a detailed breakdown of core specifications:

Note: No two workshops are the same—and neither should your storage. Herochu’s Cantilever Racking System is fully customizable: choose between manual or electric operation, adjust load-bearing capacity to fit heavier or lighter goods, modify profile length limits (even for items over 12 meters), and tailor layer counts or heights to match your space. Our team works with you to refine every detail.

How It Works: Intuitive Operation for Single-Person Efficiency

The Herochu Cantilever Racking System is designed for simplicity, even when handling full loads. At the core of its operation is a user-friendly crank-and-spindle mechanism: turning the crank rotates the spindle, rolling out each cantilever arm smoothly along the rack. The movement is controlled by the depth of the shelf arm, preventing overextension and ensuring safety. With a spindle-to-crank rotation ratio of 2.36:1, the system balances power and ease—even under a full 5,000 kg load, only an initial 15 kg of force is needed to start the arm rolling; after that, minimal effort keeps it moving.

Each rack unit is built from at least two base structures, longitudinal binders, and a control mast for each side—creating a stable framework that resists torsion and shifting. For longer or irregularly sized goods, additional base structures can be added at customer-specified intervals, ensuring even weight distribution. Storing items on high shelves is simplified with platform ladders or lifts, while residual lengths (offcuts or shorter pieces) can be stacked on supporting pallets or organized by adjusting shelf arm spacing—no wasted space, no disorganized piles.

Durable Design: Built to Withstand Industrial Wear

Herochu prioritizes longevity in every component of the Cantilever Racking System. The structure features a special rotary and rigid construction, with all moving parts supported by ball bearings to reduce friction and extend lifespan. Standard units come as fully welded, pre-assembled structures (two control masts and two rack structures in the base design), eliminating on-site assembly headaches and ensuring consistent quality.

A key design feature is the cross-toothed driveshaft, which has a non-slip surface for reliable grip—critical for maintaining controlled rotary and roll-off movements of the cantilever arms, even when fully loaded. The standard color scheme (blue structure, RAL 5012; red roll-out arms, RAL 2002) enhances visibility in busy warehouses, reducing the risk of accidents. For facilities with specific branding or safety requirements, custom paint coats in all RAL colors are available—just reach out to our team to discuss your needs.

Unmatched Advantages: Solving Your Storage Pain Points

What sets the Herochu Cantilever Racking System apart is its ability to address the most common industrial storage challenges:

• Space Gain: Load goods directly with a hall crane—no wide aisles for forklifts or stacking cranes required. This cuts down on wasted floor space, letting you store more in the same square footage.
• Handles Extra-Long Goods: Unlike traditional racks limited to short profiles, this system accommodates lengthy items up to 120 meters or more—ideal for large-scale manufacturing or construction projects.
• Enhanced Safety: The entire rack is freely accessible for loading/unloading, with no need to “push in” or “pull out” shelves. This reduces the risk of material damage or employee injury from awkward lifting.
• Time-Saving: Skip restacking entirely—use the hall crane to load the rack or unload directly onto transport vehicles, cutting down on downtime.
• Easy Handling: Most operations can be managed by a single person, reducing labor needs and simplifying workflow.

For added functionality, Herochu offers a range of accessories to tailor the system further:

• Trays and boxes for organizing leftover pieces, preventing loss of small offcuts.
• Electrically driven roll-out shelves for high-volume operations or teams seeking to reduce manual effort.
• Compartment dividers (pluggable, galvanized, infinitely adjustable) that adapt to different material lengths. These dividers use either Ø16 mm stakes or 30 mm square tubes, with custom hole spacing available to match your inventory.
