The era of passive warehouse infrastructure is ending. Today’s logistics leaders demand active, responsive storage systems that integrate digital intelligence with mechanical reliability. Leading this transformation is the Smart Control Electric Telescopic Cantilever Racking—a cutting-edge solution that redefines how long materials are stored, accessed, and managed.
Developed by Herochu, this system merges heavy-duty steel construction with IoT-enabled controls to create a storage environment that’s not only strong but also smart. At its core is a six-level cantilever framework, each arm capable of supporting approximately 700 kg, with structural reinforcements allowing peak loads of 8 tons per layer. But what truly distinguishes it is the electric telescoping mechanism, controlled via intuitive interfaces.
Operators can extend or retract any arm individually using a wall-mounted panel, handheld remote, or even a smartphone app. The motion is smooth, silent, and precisely calibrated—ideal for environments where noise reduction matters (e.g., shared industrial parks or night-shift operations). A built-in load sensor prevents activation if weight exceeds safe thresholds, while soft-stop technology avoids jarring impacts.
This “on-demand” extension model unlocks unprecedented space efficiency. When idle, all arms retract fully, shrinking the rack’s depth to under 1 meter. This allows racks to be placed back-to-back with minimal clearance, achieving storage densities 200–300% higher than fixed-arm systems. In facilities where every square foot costs hundreds per month, this capability delivers immediate ROI.
The rack’s frame uses Q235 carbon steel with 4mm column thickness, ensuring decades of service life. Arms are 2.5 meters long and feature adjustable pitch and height, accommodating everything from narrow electrical conduits to wide structural beams. The powder-coated finish resists UV, moisture, and abrasion—making it suitable for both indoor and covered outdoor use.
But the “smart” aspect goes beyond motion control. Optional modules enable:
- Real-time load monitoring per level
- Usage analytics (e.g., most-accessed SKUs)
- Predictive maintenance alerts
- Integration with ERP/WMS platforms
For example, a steel distributor can program the system to highlight arms containing low-stock items, prompting automatic reorder triggers. Or a maintenance team can receive notifications when a motor shows signs of wear—before failure occurs.
Safety is embedded at every level. Pin-lock mechanisms secure arms in extended positions, while rubberized end caps prevent pipe damage and slippage. The base includes oversized footplates with anchor points for seismic zones.
Commonly deployed in:
- Pipe yards
- Prefab construction hubs
- Utility maintenance depots
- Military logistics bases
…this system reduces manual handling injuries by up to 65%, according to internal client data. One operator can manage an entire bay that previously required two or three workers.
Certified to CE and ISO 9001 standards, the Smart Control Electric Telescopic Cantilever Racking arrives with full documentation, 3D assembly guides, and remote diagnostics support. Custom lengths, colors, and voltage options (110V/220V/380V) ensure global compatibility.
In conclusion, this isn’t just racking—it’s a digital-physical hybrid infrastructure that anticipates needs, conserves space, and elevates productivity. For warehouses ready to embrace Industry 4.0, it’s the definitive choice.
