The future of metal fabrication belongs to those who embrace robust, intelligent, and fully automatic material handling. Introducing the New Robust Industrial Swing Arm Feeder from Herochu—an industrial-grade, servo-driven handling system engineered for relentless performance in high-demand metalworking facilities.
Capable of managing sheet weights from 300kg to 1000kg, this system redefines what’s possible in automated loading and unloading. It’s not just strong—it’s smart, safe, and built to last.
Engineered for Industrial Endurance
Constructed with reinforced steel frames and industrial-grade bearings, the Herochu swing arm feeder withstands continuous 24/7 operation in harsh environments—dust, vibration, temperature fluctuations, and all. Unlike lighter-duty alternatives that degrade over time, this manipulator maintains consistent accuracy and torque even after thousands of cycles.
The servo motor drive system ensures energy-efficient operation with minimal heat generation, reducing maintenance intervals and extending service life. All moving parts are sealed against contaminants, and critical joints feature self-lubricating bushings for worry-free performance.
Fully Automatic Operation = Maximum Uptime
Once programmed, the system operates without human intervention. Operators simply place raw stacks on the input station, and the manipulator takes over:
- Detects sheet presence via sensors
- Activates vacuum grippers
- Lifts and swings the sheet into position
- Precisely aligns it with the machine bed
- Releases and returns for the next cycle
This end-to-end automation eliminates waiting time, misalignment errors, and physical strain—boosting machine utilization rates by up to 35%.
Intelligent Load Management
Advanced load-sensing algorithms adjust arm dynamics in real time. If a sheet is heavier than expected (e.g., due to moisture or stacking variation), the system compensates by modulating speed and torque—preventing overload or drop incidents.
Vacuum integrity is continuously monitored. Any loss triggers an immediate pause and alert, ensuring zero risk of dropped materials.
Space Optimization Without Sacrifice
Despite its power, the system occupies minimal floor space thanks to its vertical swing motion and compact base. It can be installed adjacent to machines without obstructing operator access or material flow paths. For facilities with tight layouts, optional wall-mounted or ceiling-suspended versions are available.
Proven in Diverse Metalworking Scenarios
- Laser Cutting Shops: Reduces idle time between cuts by auto-feeding next sheets.
- Press Brake Cells: Enables lights-out bending of large panels overnight.
- Shearing Lines: Handles bundles safely, eliminating manual lifting injuries.
- Batch Production: Switches between job types via pre-saved programs.
Factory Direct Pricing & Global Availability
As a direct manufacturer, Herochu eliminates middlemen markups. The system starts at $ 19,300, with volume discounts and financing options available. Units ship worldwide with full technical documentation and multilingual support.
In an era where productivity, safety, and uptime dictate competitiveness, the New Robust Industrial Swing Arm Feeder stands as a cornerstone of modern metal fabrication. It’s not just equipment—it’s your new production partner.
