The management of sheet metal remnants—those leftover pieces from cutting, stamping, or shaping operations—is a critical yet often overlooked aspect of workshop efficiency. When stored improperly, these remnants can create clutter, pose safety hazards, and become difficult to access, leading to material waste and increased costs. The Sheet Metal Remnant Rack is a vertical storage system meticulously designed to tackle these challenges, offering a compact, safe, and highly efficient solution for organizing and accessing residual sheet metal.
Engineered for vertical storage within 1 ton per single layer and multiple layers, this rack is available in standard models such as the HC-V2010-15, HC-V2513-15, and HC-V3015-15, catering to common plate sizes. Each model features 15 layers with partitions adjustable to 50mm heights, allowing for tailored storage of remnants of varying thicknesses. The external dimensions, like 2700x2455x1200mm for the HC-V2010-15, ensure a small footprint, making the system ideal for space-constrained areas. The drawers utilize a pull-out movement method, extending fully beyond the rack to provide complete access to all contents.
This full-extension design revolutionizes remnant handling. It enables direct access to any sheet without disturbing others, supported by a browsing function that allows users to view and select sheets from within the stack. Each drawer is fitted with non-skid strips, which keep sheets firmly in place during movement, preventing slippage and damage. This attention to detail ensures that remnants—whether steel, aluminum, or other metals—remain in pristine condition, ready for reuse.
The system dramatically improves operational efficiency. By providing a clear overview of all stored remnants, it eliminates the time wasted in searching for specific pieces. Often, only one person is needed to operate the rack, reducing labor requirements and associated costs. The compact storage method allows the rack to be positioned near machining centers, facilitating quick retrieval and minimizing production delays. Furthermore, by unifying remnants into a clean, tidy vertical arrangement, the rack enhances workshop safety, reducing tripping hazards and promoting an organized work environment. Customizable to meet diverse industry needs, this vertical storage system is not just a storage solution but a strategic tool for boosting productivity, conserving materials, and maintaining a safe, efficient workspace. Its design emphasizes immediate availability, ease of handling, and cost savings, making it an essential addition to any facility dealing with sheet metal remnants.
