KASTO offers the solution to efficient storage and retrieval of sheet metal

摘要

Sheet-metal machining facilities and distributors are investing more and more in automated storage and retrieval to streamline stock control and material flow in a round-the-clock, seven-days-a-week operation. At the same time, a company is able to store a larger amount of stock in a given footprint, saving valuable floor space compared with conventional racking. Aimed at this market is Kasto's new UNILINE single- or double-sided system with 200 to 800 storage locations for single-deep storage of sheet. Smaller and larger sheet metal storage systems are available from the company's UNTTOWER and UNICOMPACT ranges respectively, the latter configurable with thousands of locations. Standard UNILINE pallets have a usable load of three tonnes, although five tonnes or more is possible on request. All systems can accommodate small, medium and large (3 m by 1.5 m) format sheet; even extra-large and special sizes can be specified. Additionally, material can be stored on EURO pallets.
