Long Material Storage Rack

Herochu Cassette Drawer Rack: The Definitive Long Material Storage Solution for the Modern Workshop

For industrial operations where space is a premium and organizational efficiency is paramount, the storage of long, cumbersome materials presents a persistent challenge. Traditional shelving and racking systems often lead to disarray, damaged goods, and significant time loss as personnel navigate cluttered aisles and manually restack items. The Herochu Cassette Drawer Rack has been engineered from the ground up to eliminate these inefficiencies, representing a fundamental shift in how lengthy goods are stored, accessed, and managed. This is not merely a storage unit; it is a integrated workflow optimization system designed to enhance productivity, safety, and spatial economics in your facility.

Reimagining Accessibility and Spatial Dynamics

At the core of the Herochu Cassette Drawer Rack is a revolutionary design philosophy that prioritizes three-sided access without sacrificing floor space. Unlike conventional racks that require wide aisles for forklift operation, our system features individual cassettes that can be pulled out 100% to the front. This is facilitated by a robust swivel attachment, which, when deployed, provides full-frontal access for crane loading and unloading. Once the operation is complete, the attachment folds neatly away, immediately clearing the aisle and restoring a compact footprint. This unique capability allows the rack to be positioned directly against a wall, transforming previously unusable perimeter space into high-density storage.

Furthermore, the design incorporates practical access from the narrow face sides. To facilitate the smooth removal of steel bars, tubes, or profiles from this angle, a supplied roll-off roller can be effortlessly inserted into the rack’s open construction. This tri-directional access model—front and both face sides—ensures that no material is ever trapped or requires risky maneuvering to retrieve, fundamentally eliminating the need for restacking and the associated labor costs and potential for product damage.

Uncompromising Engineering and Structural Integrity

Herochu storage solutions are built to endure the demands of a rigorous industrial environment. The Cassette Drawer Rack is constructed as a very stable, torsion-resistant steel framework. The support frame is bolted for superior strength and on-site adjustability, while the cassettes themselves are welded for maximum durability and load-bearing capacity. Each cassette is mounted on ball-bearing guides, ensuring smooth, effortless extension and retraction even under full load, which can reach up to 2,000 kg per shelf for materials as long as 6,000 mm.

Our commitment to quality and international safety standards is unequivocal. Every Herochu Cassette Drawer Rack is CE certified, complies with relevant EU directives, and is manufactured under the stringent ISO 9001 Quality Management System. This certification guarantees a consistent, reliable, and safe product, giving you the confidence that your investment is protected.

Customization: A System Tailored to Your Exact Requirements

We understand that no two workshops are identical. Consequently, the Herochu Cassette Drawer Rack is offered as a highly customizable platform. While we provide robust standard models, we specialize in engineering solutions that fit your unique spatial and operational constraints.

Standard Specifications Overview:

• 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 such as load-bearing capacity, overall length, number of layers, and individual layer height can all be customized to your precise needs. The system can be configured for manual operation or integrated with electric assistance to further streamline material handling.

Operational Advantages and Practical Benefits

The implementation of a Herochu Cassette Drawer Rack system delivers immediate and tangible returns:

• Maximized Storage Density: Achieve significantly higher storage capacity within the same floor area compared to traditional pallet racking for long goods.

• Ideal for Offcuts: Clearly arrange and easily access remnants and offcuts of varying lengths, reducing waste and promoting material reuse.

• Enhanced Safety: Organized storage reduces clutter, minimizes handling, and lowers the risk of workplace accidents.

• Clear Inventory Management: A well-ordered system allows for rapid visual stock-taking and improved inventory control.

Comprehensive Accessories and Custom Finishing

To further enhance functionality, a range of accessories is available, including attachable shelf dividers for internal organization, roof levels for added storage or protection, and the option for bilateral extension. Aesthetically, the standard finish features a blue frame (RAL 5012) with red cassettes (RAL 2002). However, we offer custom paint coats in any RAL colour upon request, allowing for colour-coding or corporate branding.
