Heavy Duty Cantilever Racking System

Herochu Heavy Duty Cantilever Racking System: Unparalleled Storage for Bulky and Lengthy Materials

In the landscape of industrial storage, the challenge of managing lengthy, bulky, or irregularly shaped goods consistently presents a significant operational hurdle. Standard pallet racking falls short, creating inefficiencies, consuming valuable floor space, and introducing safety risks during loading and retrieval. The Herochu Heavy Duty Cantilever Racking System has been meticulously engineered to surmount these challenges, establishing a new benchmark for efficiency, strength, and adaptable storage. This system transcends conventional shelving; it is a sophisticated material handling solution that integrates seamlessly with your workflow to maximize warehouse cube utilization and streamline inventory management.

The cornerstone of this system’s revolutionary design is its roll-out cantilever arm mechanism. Each arm is deployed through a precision-engineered gear system where a hand crank turns a spindle, smoothly rolling the loaded arm in and out of the storage bay. The movement is both controlled and limited by the arm’s depth, ensuring operational safety and consistency. The spindle shaft to crank rotation ratio is precisely set at 2.36:1, a calculated engineering choice that optimizes mechanical advantage. While an initial crank force of approximately 15 kg may be required to overcome inertia under a full 5,000 kg load, the effort diminishes significantly thereafter, allowing for remarkably smooth and manageable operation by a single individual. This ergonomic design eliminates the physical strain associated with manual material handling and reduces the reliance on complex machinery for simple access.

Superior Structural Integrity and Customizable Configuration

Herochu’s commitment to durability is evident in every component of this Heavy Duty Cantilever Racking System. The construction utilizes a special rotary and rigid design, with all moving parts supported by high-grade ball bearings to ensure longevity and fluid motion even under extreme loads. The entire assembly, comprising base structures, longitudinal binders, and control masts, is fabricated as completely welded and assembled units. This methodology guarantees exceptional structural integrity and simplifies the on-site installation process. The cross-toothed driveshaft features a non-slip surface, providing a secure grip and ensuring controlled rotary and roll-off movements, which is critical for maintaining load stability and operator safety.

Understanding that storage needs are never one-size-fits-all, the Herochu system is inherently customizable. A single rack unit consists of a minimum of two base structures, but multiple structures can be implemented at customer-specified spacings to accommodate a diverse range of goods, from light plastic tubes and wooden boards to heavy steel pipes and structural profiles. The system’s design facilitates the storage of goods on very high shelves, which can be safely accessed with platform ladders or lifts. Furthermore, the management of residual lengths is simplified; they can be organized using supporting pallets, or the shelf arm spacing can be adjusted to suit specific requirements, virtually eliminating material waste and disorganization.

Operational Advantages That Transform Warehouse Efficiency

The implementation of a Herochu Heavy Duty Cantilever Racking System delivers a compelling return on investment through a multitude of operational benefits. It generates substantial space gain by allowing storage to be conducted directly with an overhead hall crane. This eliminates the need for wider aisles typically required for forklift trucks or stacking cranes, reclaiming valuable square footage for productive use. The system excels in handling excess lengths, capable of storing lengthy goods measuring 12 meters and beyond with ease and security.

Safety is profoundly enhanced as the entire roll-out rack can be accessed freely. There is no dangerous “pushing in” or “pulling out” of heavy shelves from the side, a common cause of workplace incidents. This free access, combined with the system’s stability, creates a safer working environment. The time-saving aspect is equally significant. By eliminating the need for restacking and enabling direct loading and unloading of transport vehicles using the hall crane, workflow bottlenecks are dramatically reduced. The rack can be accessed quickly at any time, and its easy handling often means operations can be managed by a single person, optimizing labor allocation.

Standard Specifications and Versatile Accessories

The system is available in several robust standard configurations to suit various needs:

• Model HC-G6053D: 6m length, 3t load per layer, 4+1 layers (Bilateral assistance), 6435x3340x1750mm overall dimensions.

• Model HC-G9055S: 9m length, 5t load per layer, 4+1 layers (Unilateral assistance), 9435x3340x1550mm overall dimensions.

• Model HC-G9055D: 9m length, 5t load per layer, 4+1 layers (Bilateral assistance), 9435x3340x1750mm overall dimensions.

• Model HC-G12055D: 12m length, 5t load per layer, 4+1 layers (Bilateral assistance), 12435x3340x1750mm overall dimensions.

Note: Critical parameters including load-bearing capacity, overall length, number of layers, and individual layer height can all be customized. The system can be configured for manual operation or upgraded to electrically driven roll-out shelves for further automation.

To enhance functionality, a suite of accessories is available. For organizing leftover pieces, trays and boxes can be integrated. Compartment dividers are offered in two variants: pluggable Ø16 mm stakes with individual hole spacing for flexible organization, or infinitely adjustable square tube 30 mm stakes. Both are galvanized for durability and can be variably adapted to specific storage requirements, ensuring sensible organization of different long materials and lengths. The standard finish is a structure blue (RAL 5012) with red roll-out arms (RAL 2002), but custom paint coats in any RAL colour are available upon request.

Manufactured under the stringent protocols of CE, EU, and ISO 9001 certifications, the Herochu Heavy Duty Cantilever Racking System guarantees a level of quality, safety, and reliability that is recognized internationally. It is the definitive choice for industries seeking to optimize their storage of lengthy goods. Customizable solutions begin at $2,998.
