Metal storage

Posted on Friday 1 January 2010

KASTO will use IMHX to showcase its extensive range of automated 3D warehousing solutions and manually controlled storage systems designed to lower cost per pick when accessing long stock and sheet material.

The installations can be used purely for housing and picking material for delivery to customers. Alternatively, they may be interlinked with machine tools, including KASTO’s own range of saws, as well as a customer’s MRP / ERP system to boost productivity through more efficient delivery of material to the machines, leading to faster processing of orders.

The product portfolio starts with small tower storage systems, type KASTOunitower, the stacking cradle KASTOunibloc and then, depending on demand, in-line storage systems such as KASTOuniline or honeycomb storage systems KASTOunigrip and KASTOunicompact. All these automated storage systems are modular in design and based on standardised components.

KASTOunitower single or double sided systems are designed for lower volume storage. They have a small footprint for a high capacity, with tower heights up to 25 metres.

KASTOunibloc systems are intended for manual or automatic handling of stacking cradles, several at the same time, up to 5 metres high. They are designed for material lengths from 6 to 24 metres and for maximum loads of 6 or 9 tonnes per cradle. 20 picks per hour are possible.

KASTOuniline is designed for single-deep, flexible, longitudinal storage of cassettes or pallets of sheet material, from small to extra-large. Suited for narrow buildings, the modular block design starts at 200 storage locations and system heights can reach 25 metres.

KASTOunigrip and KASTOunicompact storage systems are designed as two adjacent storage blocks in honeycomb design with an operating gantry crane moving between them Stand 10H37
