Engineering Excellence: The Core of the Herochu System

Certified to CE, UE, and ISO 9001 standards, every Herochu Metal Sheet Rack is built to the highest international benchmarks of quality, safety, and performance. This commitment to excellence ensures a reliable and durable solution for your most demanding storage applications.

Unmatched Customization for a Perfect Fit:
Understanding that no two facilities are identical, the Herochu system is fully customized according to customer workshop specifications. This bespoke approach ensures maximum space utilization and seamless integration with your existing material handling equipment.

• Load Capacity (Single Layer): Customizable from 1 to 10 tons to match the specific weight of your sheet metals.

• Storage Sheet Size: Accommodates large formats, customizable from 6 to 12 meters.

• Number of Layers: A standard 5+1 layer configuration that is fully customizable to your vertical space and volume needs.

• Height & Dimensions: With an adjustable height of up to 5 meters and a length of arm ranging from 550mm to 800mm, the system is engineered for stability and ease of access.

• Color: A customizable finish allows the unit to blend with your workshop’s aesthetic and safety color-coding systems.

100% Direct Accessibility: The Roll-Out Drawer Advantage

The defining feature of the Herochu compact metal sheet storage system is its revolutionary drawer-based design. Unlike traditional static shelving or stacking methods, this system features 100% roll-out drawers that transform how you interact with your inventory.

• Secure and Compact Storage: Your metal sheets are stored vertically in a highly secure, space-saving configuration, drastically reducing the warehouse footprint compared to horizontal storage.

• Instant, Direct Access: Every single sheet metal is directly accessible. There is no need to move top sheets to access bottom ones, eliminating handling damage and saving invaluable time. This makes it the perfect storage for all sheet metal products, including sensitive materials like galvanized sheets that require careful handling to prevent scratching and coating damage.

• Solid and Protected Cassettes: Each drawer acts as a incredibly solid cassette. These are not merely shelves; they are reinforced, protective compartments that secure and protect the metal sheets during transport, whether being moved across the workshop or across the facility.

Seamless Integration with Material Handling Equipment

This rack system is specifically designed for combination with a forklift, creating a dynamic and mobile storage solution.

• Forklift Operation: The cassettes are being taken out by a forklift operator. This design integrates seamlessly with standard warehouse workflows, requiring no specialized training beyond basic forklift operation.

• Crane Compatibility: The transport of an individual metal sheet from the withdrawn cassette can be effortlessly handled by crane or jib cranes, providing flexibility in how materials are fed into production lines like laser cutters or press brakes.

• Dramatically Reduced Labor: This integrated process means that only 1 person is needed for handling. A single forklift operator can retrieve, transport, and position a entire cassette of sheets for processing, slashing labor costs and minimizing the risk of injuries associated with manual sheet handling.

Technical Specifications & Applications

• Material: Constructed from high-tensile Steel for unmatched durability and longevity.

• Structure: Drawer-based design for maximum accessibility and protection.

• Type: Multi-Level Racking system for high-density vertical storage.
