Aluminum Sheet Storage Rack: Heavy-Duty Roll-Out Shelving Units

Herochu Aluminum Sheet Storage Rack: Heavy-Duty Roll-Out Shelving Units – Your Workshop’s Efficiency Solution

The Problem: Why Your Current Sheet Storage System is Costing You Money

For many fabrication shops and manufacturing plants, sheet metal is a high-value asset. Yet, it’s often stored in the least valuable way—stacked in precarious piles on the floor. This common method isn’t just messy; it’s an “efficiency black hole” that actively drains your profits.

The Hidden Costs of “Stacking Chaos”

• Wasted Time: Every time you need a specific sheet from the bottom of the pile, you engage in a costly, dangerous process of “digging”. This delays production, idles your machines, and reduces overall output.
• Material Damage: Scratches, dents, and bends accumulate with every move. For high-value materials like aluminum, this damage translates into lost profit and unnecessary scrap.
• Safety Risks: Maneuvering heavy, awkward sheets with cranes or forklifts in a cluttered space is a recipe for accidents. Worker injuries, property damage, and compliance fines are the hidden costs of a “cheap” storage system.
• Wasted Floor Space: Horizontal stacking consumes valuable real estate. That space could be used for new production lines, assembly areas, or streamlined workflow.

The Solution: Herochu’s Heavy-Duty Roll-Out Shelving Units

It’s time to stop treating your valuable inventory like a liability and give it the sturdy, organized “home” it deserves. Herochu’s aluminum sheet storage racks are designed to eliminate bottlenecks, maximize space, and improve safety—all while delivering a measurable return on investment (ROI).

Key Features That Make Herochu Racks Stand Out

1. Heavy-Duty Construction: Built with high-strength structural steel, these racks are engineered to withstand up to 6 tons per drawer (HC-B6020-66 model). They’re CE, UE, and ISO 9001 certified for reliability.
2. Customizable Design: Whether you need 3m x 1.5m (HC-B3015-63) or 6m x 2m (HC-B6020-66), Herochu’s racks can be tailored to your workshop. Adjust the number of layers, load capacity, and drawer movement method (hand-pull, hand-crank, or forklift-style).
3. Space-Saving Vertical Storage: Store sheets vertically to reclaim up to 80% of your floor space. No more “stacking chaos”—every sheet has a dedicated home.
4. Easy Material Retrieval: With 100% selectivity, you can instantly access any sheet without digging. This keeps your machines running without delays.
5. Safety-First Operation: Standardized, one-person procedures reduce injury risks. The hand-crank model (HC-B4020-65) allows a single operator to safely roll out a 5,000 lb drawer with minimal effort.

Real-World ROI: A Success Story from Midwest Fabrication

Mr. Johnson, owner of Midwest Fabrication, faced a familiar problem: his two laser cutters were constantly starved for material, his floor was a chaotic mess of stacked sheets, and a recent near-miss safety incident was the last straw.

• Before Herochu Racks:
  • Wasted 2+ hours/day per machine “digging” for steel.
  • Lost production due to material delays.
  • Safety risks from handling heavy sheets manually.
• After Herochu Racks:
  • Reclaimed 70%+ of floor space.
  • Retrieval time reduced to <5 minutes.
  • 15% increase in monthly output.
  • Safer work environment with fewer near-misses.

“Our shop was a disaster,” Johnson said. “Now, one operator can pull the exact sheet we need and have it on the laser bed in under five minutes. Our machine uptime has surged, and we’ve seen a 15% increase in monthly output. Most importantly, my team is safer, and our shop is finally under control.”

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)

1. Can the rack dimensions and load capacity be customized?

Yes. Herochu’s systems are fully customizable. The height, width, drawer dimensions, number of levels, and load capacity can all be engineered to match your specific sheet sizes, weight requirements, and facility space.

2. What is the typical load capacity per drawer?

• Standard models: 1.5 tons (HC-B3015-63) to 6 tons (HC-B6020-66) per drawer.
• Custom options: Available for heavier loads (e.g., 8+ tons).

3. We have sheets weighing 5,000 lbs. Is that too heavy for one person?

Not at all. This is the perfect application for the hand-crank model. A simple, gear-driven crank handle allows a single operator to safely roll out a 5,000 lb (or heavier) drawer without any physical strain or risk.

4. How many layers can one rack have?

• Determined by ceiling height and lifting equipment (overhead crane or forklift).
• Standard models: 5+1 layers (HC-B3015-63).
• Custom options: Up to 20 layers for maximizing vertical space.

5. What equipment do I need to operate these racks?

• Hand-pull & hand-crank racks: Designed for overhead cranes, jib cranes, or gantry cranes (using sheet lifters or vacuum lifters).
• Forklift-style racks: Designed to be operated directly by a forklift.

Why Choose Herochu?

• Source Factory Advantage: We’re the manufacturer, not a middleman. This means competitive pricing (starting at $4,399) and no hidden markups.
• Quality Assurance: CE, UE, and ISO 9001 certified for reliability and durability.
• Expert Support: We solve all kinds of storage difficulties, from space constraints to workflow inefficiencies.
• Future-Proof Design: Modular (using a “main rack” + “sub-rack” system) allows you to start small and scale up as your business grows.
