Sheet metal automatic storage unit

In the competitive landscape of modern metal fabrication and manufacturing, efficient material handling isn’t a luxury – it’s the cornerstone of profitability. Disorganized sheet metal storage consumes valuable floor space, slows production, risks material damage, and creates safety hazards. Herochu delivers a transformative solution: the Sheet Metal Automatic Storage Unit. This intelligent, CE, UKCA & ISO 9001 Certified system revolutionizes how workshops store and access steel, aluminum, plates, and tools, starting at an incredibly accessible customized price of just $2,399.

Beyond Basic Shelving: Intelligent Automation for Organized Efficiency

Forget static racks and manual searching. The Herochu Automatic Storage Unit represents a leap forward in optimized vertical and floor space utilization. It’s not just storage; it’s an integrated system designed to dramatically improve work efficiency and create a consistently safe work environment by automating the retrieval and storage process for sheet metal and flat products.

Core Technology: Precision Engineered Automation

Herochu integrates robust engineering with smart control for seamless operation:

1. Automated Roll-Out Drawers: The heart of the system. Each drawer features:

   • 100% Full Extension: Provides complete, unobstructed access to the entire stored sheet.

   • Secure Locking: Individual Lock-In, Lock-Out mechanisms for each drawer ensure absolute safety during operation, preventing accidental movement.

   • Heavy-Duty Capacity: Engineered for maximum loads of 3T or 5T per drawer, handling even the heaviest plates.

2. Advanced Motion System:

   • Smooth Movement: Combines Linear Guide Rails for precision alignment and stability with Chain Drive Transmission for powerful, reliable motion.

   • Optimized Speeds: Vertical lifting speed of 9m/min and Inlet/Outlet speed of 12m/min ensure swift material handling without compromise to safety or precision.

3. Intelligent Control Interface: Simple, user-friendly controls allow operators to select the desired drawer or material location effortlessly.

4. Versatile Plate Support: Optional plate support systems (rollers, skids, adjustable pads) cater to different sheet sizes, thicknesses, and materials, preventing scratches or warping.

Transformative Features for Your Workshop:

• Maximize Vertical Space: Significantly increase storage density, freeing up crucial floor space for production machinery or workflow.

• Intelligent Inventory Management: Organize steel inventory efficiently by size, type, material, thickness, or project – instantly accessible via the control system.

• Enhanced Safety: Eliminates the risks of manual sheet handling (drops, pinching, cuts). Locking drawers ensure stability during operation. Creates a demonstrably safer workplace.

• Reduce Material Damage: Gentle, automated handling and secure storage minimize scratches, dents, and edge damage during storage and retrieval.

• One-Person Operation: A single operator can easily manage retrieval and storage using the unit’s controls, often assisted by overhead lifters, vacuum systems, magnets, or hoists for final placement.

• Boost Productivity: Slash time spent searching for sheets and manually handling heavy plates. Retrieve the exact sheet needed in seconds.

• Seamless Integration: Designed to complement laser cutting machines, shears, press brakes, and other production machinery, ensuring a smooth material flow.

Robust Specifications & Customization: Tailored to Your Needs

Herochu understands that every workshop is unique. Our Automatic Storage Units are fundamentally customizable according to your customer workshop:

• Unit Dimensions (WxL): Common sizes include 3015/4015/4020/6015/6020/6025mm (Width x Length in mm), or fully bespoke dimensions.

• Number of Floors (Drawers): Fully Customizable to match your ceiling height and storage volume requirements.

• Load per Layer: 3T or 5T standard options, higher capacities possible.

• Number of Storage Units: Customizable – deploy a single unit or integrate multiple units for large-scale storage.

• Plate Support System: Optional selection based on your specific material types and handling preferences.

• Integration: Designed for easy integration with existing overhead cranes or material handling equipment.

The Herochu Advantage: Tangible Benefits for Your Bottom Line

Investing in a Herochu Sheet Metal Automatic Storage Unit delivers immediate and long-term returns:
