Sheet Metal Racking System That Works as Hard as Your Team

A great racking system shouldn’t just hold material—it should accelerate your workflow. That’s the philosophy behind Herochu’s Sheet Metal Racking System: a heavy-duty, drawer-based solution that turns passive storage into active production support.

Designed for shops running CNC lasers, plasma tables, turret punches, or shear lines, this system places the right sheet in the right place at the right time—without forklifts, without delays, and without safety compromises.

How It Integrates Into Your Production Flow

Imagine this: your laser finishes cutting a batch of 10-gauge mild steel. Instead of waiting for a forklift to bring the next blank, your operator walks two steps to a Herochu drawer rack, pulls open the labeled drawer for “12ft x 5ft, 10ga,” and loads the machine in under a minute. No radio calls. No traffic jams in the aisle. No waiting.

This seamless integration is possible because:

• Drawers extend 100%, exposing the entire sheet face
• Units stand only 7 ft tall, fitting under most mezzanines or crane rails
• Overhead crane loading means no floor obstructions
• Clear labeling zones allow visual management (5S-ready)

Technical Strength You Can Trust

Built from Q235 steel with full-penetration welding, these racks don’t flex, wobble, or degrade over time. Key specs:

• Load capacity: 2T to 6T per layer (customizable)
• Plate compatibility: 2m to 6m in length, up to 2m wide
• Layer count: Typically 5+1 or 6 full drawers
• Ground clearance: 355 mm for easy access
• Top height: ~2200 mm for safe operation

Models like HB-B6015-63 (6m x 1.5m, 6T) are engineered for long, heavy plates used in shipbuilding or structural fabrication, while HC-B2513-62 suits smaller architectural or HVAC shops.

Beyond Storage—A Safety Upgrade

Manual handling of sheet metal causes thousands of workplace injuries annually—back strains, cuts from sharp edges, dropped loads. By enabling mechanical retrieval (via crane, lifter, or even two-person team with handles), Herochu racks drastically reduce these risks. The enclosed drawer design also prevents sheets from sliding out unexpectedly.

Plus, with everything off the floor, emergency egress paths stay clear—a major plus for OSHA or ISO 45001 compliance.

Global Quality, Local Support

Manufactured in China but deployed worldwide—from Mexico to Germany—our systems meet CE and ISO 9001 standards. We provide installation guidance, technical drawings, and remote support. On-site commissioning is available for complex setups.

When you invest in a Herochu sheet metal racking system, you’re not buying metal—you’re buying time, safety, and space.
