Automatic loading and unloading for laser cutting machine Automatic Sheet Metal Loading and Unloading Robot

Auto Loading and Unloading System for Fiber Laser Cutting Machines

At the core of Herochu’s innovation is a single gantry compound loading and unloading manipulator (Model HC-A6015) that works seamlessly with your fiber laser cutting machine. The complete system comprises three key components: the laser cutting machine itself, a high-performance composite truss manipulator for automated loading/unloading, and a double-layer electric exchange material car. Controlled by an intuitive PLC system and touch screen interface, these components integrate to form a fully automated sheet metal production unit—eliminating manual intervention and turning disjointed processes into a smooth, continuous workflow.

That’s where the Herochu Auto Loading and Unloading System for Fiber Laser Cutting Machines comes in—a game-changing automated solution designed to streamline your workflow, enhance product quality, and maximize your return on investment.

Certified with CE, UE, and ISO 9001 standards, Herochu’s system is engineered to meet the strictest global quality and safety requirements, giving you peace of mind while optimizing your operations. Whether you run a small workshop or a large-scale manufacturing facility, this system is built to adapt: it can be fully customized according to your workshop layout, space constraints, and production needs, with customized pricing starting from just $8,900.

What Makes the Herochu Auto Loading and Unloading System Unique?

Key Technical Specifications: Built for Reliability and Performance

Herochu’s HC-A6015 manipulator is designed to handle the demands of heavy-duty sheet metal production. Here are the technical details that set it apart:

Payload Capacity: 200 kg (with a maximum load range of 300 kg to 3,000 kg for versatile material handling)

Reach: 2,000 mm, ensuring compatibility with most standard fiber laser cutting machine sizes

Storage Layers: 8–13 floors, enabling centralized three-dimensional storage of raw materials and finished parts

Loading Per Layer: 3t/5t, supporting high-volume production needs

Air Source: 0.6–0.7MPa, ensuring stable and consistent operation

Packaging: Standard export packaging, protecting the system during transit and installation

Every component is manufactured by Herochu’s team of experienced engineers and designers, who adhere to rigorous quality control standards. This commitment to excellence ensures that each system exceeds industry benchmarks, delivering long-lasting performance even in the most demanding production environments.

Automated Functionality: From Storage to Finished Parts, All Hands-Free

The Herochu Auto Loading and Unloading System isn’t just about loading and unloading—it’s a comprehensive solution that covers every step of the material handling process. It can seamlessly execute a range of automated tasks, including:

Centralized three-dimensional storage: Maximize floor space by storing raw materials and finished products vertically, reducing clutter and improving workshop organization.

Automatic discharging: Effortlessly unload raw materials from storage to the material car, eliminating manual lifting and carrying.

Automatic taking: Precisely retrieve workpieces from the material car and position them for laser cutting, ensuring consistent alignment and reducing material waste.

Automatic splitting: Separate cut parts from scrap materials post-cutting, saving time on manual sorting.

Automatic loading/unloading: Move finished parts from the laser cutting machine to storage or the next production stage—all without human input.

This end-to-end automation doesn’t just save time; it also ensures consistent product quality. By replacing manual actions with precise mechanical movements, the system minimizes errors caused by human fatigue or inconsistency. Every cut, load, and unload is executed with the same level of accuracy, resulting in uniform finished products that meet your exact specifications.

Why Choose Herochu Over Manual Operations or Generic Systems?

Compared to traditional manual loading/unloading or even basic automated systems, the Herochu Auto Loading and Unloading System offers four distinct advantages that directly impact your bottom line:

1. Higher Safety, Lower Labor Intensity

Manual material handling for laser cutting machines is physically demanding and risky—workers face the threat of cuts, strains, or accidents from heavy loads. Herochu’s system replaces these manual actions with a high-safety-factor manipulator, reducing the risk of workplace injuries and lowering the physical burden on your team. This not only improves employee satisfaction but also reduces downtime caused by injuries.

2. Greater Efficiency with Dual Mechanical Claws

Unlike single-claw manipulators, Herochu’s system uses two mechanical claws that exchange positions to load and unload workpieces. This design requires fewer degrees of freedom, making the system more reliable, and operates at a faster pace than single-claw alternatives. The result? Shorter production cycles and higher throughput—even during long shifts.

3. Universal Compatibility, Easy Adjustment

One of the biggest challenges in automation is adapting to different machine types or workpiece sizes. Herochu’s system solves this by being freely applicable to different CNC machine tools (including fiber laser cutters). You can adjust the bracket height and mechanical claw expansion to fit various workpiece sizes, eliminating the need for multiple specialized systems. This flexibility makes it a long-term investment that grows with your business.

4. Significant Labor Cost Savings

By automating material handling, the system drastically reduces the need for manual labor. Operators only need to set up the machine’s position, load blanks into the system, and perform simple start/stop actions during operation. This means one person can control multiple machines—cutting your labor costs while maintaining (or even increasing) production volume. For example, a workshop that previously required three workers to handle two laser cutters can now manage four machines with just one operator, doubling output without increasing labor expenses.

Customization: Tailored to Your Workshop

No two workshops are the same—and Herochu understands that. Whether you have limited floor space, unique material sizes, or specific production goals, the Auto Loading and Unloading System can be customized to fit your needs. Our team works closely with you to assess your workshop layout, production volume, and material types, then designs a system that integrates seamlessly with your existing laser cutting machines. From adjusting the number of storage layers to modifying the manipulator’s reach, every detail is tailored to ensure optimal performance in your unique environment. And with customized pricing starting at $8,900, it’s an investment that fits a range of budgets.
