Herochu Rolling Hand-Crank Out Sheet Metal Storage Shelving System
Turn 5-Ton Plates into a One-Hand Job, CE & ISO 9001 Certified, From $3 660, Tailor-Made to Your Hallway
Stop dancing forklifts around precarious stacks. The Herochu rolling crank-out rack lets a single operator glide 6 m sheets into the aisle in under fifteen seconds—no motor, no pinch points, no overtime. Built from laser-cut Q355B steel in Shandong, stress-tested to CE, UE and ISO 9001 norms, and priced from $3 660 FOB Qingdao, it is the first storage unit that shrinks your steel footprint while it grows your throughput.
Every frame starts life as an 8 mm one-piece torsion box, welded robotically and then milled flat. Four sealed bearings ride on induction-hardened rails so a fully loaded 5 t drawer demands less torque than a sticky fire door. The chassis sits only 355 mm off the floor—low enough for a pallet truck—yet carries five tons per layer without measurable deflection. A folded crank handle doubles as a positive brake; bump it with a forklift and the drawer stays put.
Choose the size that matches your shear or laser bed. The HC-B3015-63 swallows 3 m × 1.5 m sheets at 3 t per layer and slips into most 3.5 m ceilings. Step up to the HC-B4015-63 and you keep the same footprint while boosting capacity to 5 t for 4 m plates. Need two-metre width? The HC-B4020-65 stores 4 m × 2 m stock at 2.5 m high, perfect for automotive stampings. For ship sections or wind-tower shells the HC-B6020-66 handles 6 m × 2 m panels, still within a 4.5 m² floor patch—ninety percent less space than traditional floor stacking.
Colour, pitch, power—everything is negotiable. Standard finish is traffic-blue powder coat, 80 µm, 800 h salt-spray. Prefer corporate orange or anti-static epoxy for composite clean rooms? Send a Pantone code. The rack ships crank-ready, yet a 24 V servo kit bolts on in forty-five minutes when volumes climb. Layers can be added or deleted in 220 mm increments; load ratings can be pushed to 6 t; drawers can be fitted with PVC rollers for polished stainless or with RFID tags that ping your MES when opened.
Installation rarely takes more than a morning. The heaviest sub-assembly weighs 280 kg—two workers and a pallet jack are enough. Bolt-together sides mean no on-site welding, no hot-work permit, no third-party rigger. Anchor the supplied M16 chemical studs into 150 mm unreinforced concrete, torque to 180 Nm, slide in the drawers and start loading. Most customers move their first ton before lunch.
Safety officers like what they see: mechanical lock-out, edge protection rollers, reversible top pad for off-cuts, and full traceability paperwork linked to a single serial number. When the auditor asks for mill certificates or load-test videos you email one PDF—no frantic folder hunt.
Price transparency is part of the deal. HC-B3015-63 starts at $3 660 FOB Qingdao; the largest HC-B6020-66 lands in Hamburg or Houston around $7 100 including export crate and sea-worthy desiccant. A 40’ HQ takes four of the big units or eight of the compact, keeping freight per rack under $450. Import duty into the EU is zero under HS 7308.90.
The maths on floor space alone pays the note. Leasing industrial real estate in Shanghai runs ¥3 per m² per day; freeing 40 m² saves ¥43 800 a year—more than the entire cost of one rack in eighteen months. Add the labour you no longer pay a forklift driver to shuffle stacks and the payback drops to a single quarter.
We back every frame with a 24-month warranty and a 48-hour spare-parts promise. Bend a crank handle or spit a bearing and we air-freight replacements on our account. If a weld ever cracks, send photos; we’ll ship a new upright before you finish your coffee.
Storing more than five tons of sheet metal without instant access is a silent profit leak. The Herochu rolling hand-crank shelving system gives you back the floor, the crane and the safety record—starting at $3 660 delivered anywhere on the planet.
