Fully Automatic Smart Industrial Long Material Warehouse

Storing long materials shouldn’t mean sacrificing speed, safety, or space. Yet most factories still rely on sprawling ground stacks or static racks that demand forklifts, multiple workers, and hours of searching. Herochu’s Fully Automatic Smart Industrial Long Material Warehouse dismantles these inefficiencies with a vertically integrated, sensor-driven platform built for the digital factory era.

Developed by Hengzhu Machinery—a leader in industrial automation—the system merges mechanical robustness with intelligent logistics. Its core is a modular vertical tower available in 8–13 layers, each engineered to hold 3T or 5T of material ranging from 6015mm to 6025mm in length. Unlike horizontal cantilever racks that consume aisle after aisle, this unit rises upward, freeing floor space for production cells, assembly lines, or expansion.

What truly sets it apart is end-to-end automation. Using chain-driven linear rails, the retrieval mechanism moves with industrial-grade reliability at speeds up to 12 meters per minute during inbound/outbound cycles. A Siemens-based PLC control system orchestrates every action—from barcode scanning at intake to precise positioning at retrieval—with sub-millimeter accuracy. The result? A 3x improvement in operational throughput and near-zero misplacement rates.

The user interface is equally advanced. A 15-inch capacitive touchscreen offers intuitive workflows: select material ID, choose mode (manual/semi/full auto), and monitor real-time status. Maintenance alerts, usage logs, and energy consumption metrics are all accessible on-screen, enabling predictive servicing before failures occur.

Safety is embedded, not added. Emergency brakes engage instantly if vibration exceeds thresholds. Load cells verify weight before lifting. And the entire structure—fabricated from high-yield steel and finished with anti-corrosion coating—meets CE and ISO 9001 standards for global deployment.

Customization is seamless. Need taller layers for oversized I-beams? Done. Require integration with your SAP or Oracle WMS? Achievable. Even the profile support arms can be swapped—flat for sheets, contoured for pipes—without halting operations.

Priced from $35,999, this isn’t a cost—it’s a force multiplier. For metal service centers, shipyards, or renewable energy component manufacturers managing high-volume, long-item inventories, Herochu delivers a future-proof warehouse that thinks, moves, and scales with you.
