Workspace Sheet Storage Solution & Systems
The rack ships as one fixed base deck plus nine independent drawers, each rated at 1 000 kg and sized from 1 500 mm × 3 000 mm up to 2 000 mm × 6 000 mm. A 45 mm pitch means drawer height can be reset with four bolts if tomorrow’s mix includes thick wear plate or pre-painted HVAC blanks. Every drawer rides on sealed steel rollers with eccentric axles that compensate for wear; even after 40 000 cycles the pull force stays below 35 N, so a single technician can slide 800 kg of copper without strain. Side guides stop lateral drift to ±1 mm, protecting suction-cup alignment when the crane operator hits “raise.”

Herochu Workspace Sheet Storage Solution & Systems – Turn 40 m² of Floor into 10 Tons of Instant Access, Starting at $2,280
Walk into any high-throughput laser shop at 07:00 and the story is the same: pallets of 1 mm, 2 mm, 8 mm and 20 mm crowd the gangway, the foreman is hunting for the remnant that “was here yesterday,” and the crane is tied up shuffling packages while the bed sits idle. Herochu’s Workspace Sheet Storage Solution ends that daily ritual. Built in Jinan’s 8 000 m² CE- and ISO 9001-certified plant, the ten-tier horizontal rack lets one operator locate, retrieve and load the correct sheet in under 60 seconds—without a forklift truck and without touching the edges that you later paint, bend or weld.
Ten Layers, Zero Confusion

Crane-to-Laser Workflow, No Double Handling
Extend drawer 7, lower the vacuum beam, engage the cups, lift and retract. The sheet clears the remaining stock by 80 mm, travels directly to the shuttle table and registers against the squaring arm while the drawer closes automatically under spring assist. Average retrieval-to-cut time recorded at three Midwest fabricators: 52 seconds. Compare that to the 7–9 minutes typically lost locating, band-saw strapping and vacuum-lifting from floor bundles. In a 300-shift year that difference buys an extra 1 800 beam-on hours from a 4 kW laser—enough capacity to pay for the rack before the next tax return is filed.

Categorised Storage, Visual Inventory
Colour-coded end caps and optional barcode pockets let you dedicate tier 1 to 1 mm mild steel, tier 2 to 2 mm, tier 3 to brushed 304, tier 4 to aluminium “no PVC,” and so on. Cycle counts become a walk-by exercise; ERP systems sync in real time when the crane operator scans the pull. One Ohio job shop reduced physical inventory time from three labour days to four hours and discovered a hidden 17 t of 5 mm plate that had been written off as “floor loss.”

Floor Space That Earns Its Rent
A standard ten-tier block 6 m long × 1.55 m deep stores 60 t of mixed gauges in 9.3 m²—an eight-fold density gain over traditional A-frames. Because every sheet is front-facing, no 1.5 m service aisle is required behind the rack, freeing an extra 30 % of workshop length for value-adding machines. If you relocate, the bolt-together frame knocks down into a single export crate; re-assembly at the new site takes two men and one torque wrench, no welded footings or chemical anchors required.

Built for the Real World, Not the Brochure
Steel is Q355B grade, laser-cut, then robot-welded in 1.2 mm CO² for full penetration. Uprights are 160 mm × 80 mm × 6 mm box; drawer chassis uses 8 mm side plates and 30 mm induction-hardened shafts. After shot-blasting to Sa 2.5, components soak in zinc-rich epoxy and receive a 60 µm topcoat of RAL 5015 polyurethane resistant to coolant, brake cleaner and UV fade. Optional stainless cladding is available for food-grade or coastal plants. The whole assembly carries a 5-year structural warranty and is covered by €2 million product liability underwritten through London market insurers.

Safety Credentials That Satisfy Any Auditor
Drawer travel is limited by positive mechanical stops—no reliance on operator restraint. Each tier is fitted with a spring-loaded detent that prevents accidental roll-out during crane pick, yet releases instantly when pulled. End frames include replaceable polymer buffers to absorb crane swing impact and protect painted edges. Clearance below the lowest drawer is 350 mm, allowing pallet truck passage without creating a trip ledge. Units meet EU EN 1993-1-1 steel design code, carry TÜV issued CE conformity and are supplied with full static calculations signed off by a chartered engineer—documentation that speeds permit approval in Germany, the Nordics and the UAE.

From Small Job Shop to Tier-One Automotive
Starting price of USD 2 280 delivers a 2 m × 1.5 m, two-tier module—ideal for a single-shift plasma table cutting 500 parts a week. From there the system scales linearly: bolt on extra bays, swap 1 t rollers for 2 t forgings, add motorised drawers or integrate with an AGV superstructure. Herochu has supplied 40 m long banks feeding 20 kW fibre lasers, and 3 m countertop units beside 1 kW desktop cutters. The same extruded rail profile accepts RFID antennas, LED strip lighting or dust-extraction hoods, so the rack evolves with automation upgrades instead of becoming tomorrow’s scrap iron.
