Herochu changes that with the Tubes Automatic Storage Unit, a compact, high-density vertical system that automates the entire lifecycle of tube handling.Supporting 6015–6025mm lengths and 3T–5T per layer, the unit stacks tubes vertically in a footprint 30% smaller than traditional racks. Its 10-layer standard configuration (expandable to 13) uses 330mm interlayer spacing, ideal for round, square, or rectangular tubing. Optional polymer-lined arms prevent galvanic corrosion and surface marring.

Tubular goods dominate industries from HVAC to bicycle manufacturing—but their storage remains stubbornly analog. Herochu changes that with the Tubes Automatic Storage Unit, a compact, high-density vertical system that automates the entire lifecycle of tube handling.

Supporting 6015–6025mm lengths and 3T–5T per layer, the unit stacks tubes vertically in a footprint 30% smaller than traditional racks. Its 10-layer standard configuration (expandable to 13) uses 330mm interlayer spacing, ideal for round, square, or rectangular tubing. Optional polymer-lined arms prevent galvanic corrosion and surface marring.

The automation suite—powered by Siemens S7 PLC and a 15-inch touchscreen—enables one-touch retrieval. Scan a barcode, and the system lifts the correct layer, extends the carrier, and presents the tube at waist height. In full-auto mode, it interfaces with cutting saws to pull materials just-in-time, reducing WIP inventory by up to 40%.

Performance specs impress: 9 m/min vertical speed, 12 m/min horizontal speed, and ±2mm accuracy. Chain drive ensures longevity; linear guides guarantee smoothness. All movements are logged for traceability and maintenance forecasting.

Certified to CE, UE, and ISO 9001, and starting at $35,999, it’s the smart choice for any facility tired of tangled tube piles and forklift near-misses.
