Automatic sheet metal warehouse: automation that simplifies, performance that grows

What is an automatic sheet metal warehouse

An automatic sheet metal magazine is a vertical drawer storage system that stores sheet metal bundles and makes them available to the cutting machine upon CNC request. Combined with a loading and unloading system, it automatically feeds the laser and moves the finished piece away, eliminating forklifts, waiting and manual material handling.

Basically, the automatic warehouse is what turns a laser machine into a continuous production line: the material enters, is cut and is unloaded in a single stream, without an operator having to be present at each package change.

Your challenges: where production hours are lost

Every day, companies must produce more, with fewer resources and in less time. In sheet metalworking, however, much of the machine time is lost outside of cutting:

  • Downtime between pieces, while the operator loads the next package
  • Manual handling with overhead crane or forklift, slow and with risks for the material and for those who perform it
  • Machine stopped on open shifts: at night and on weekends the plant does not produce
  • Messy sheet metal storage, with occupied workshop surface and difficult-to-trace material
  • Inability to manage mixed batches without continuous set-up changes

The Warcom solution: integrated automation, custom-designed

Our automation systems are created to eliminate obstacles and make the production process continuous, efficient and competitive.
Warcom offers customized integrated automation solutions on the customer’s system. Automatic loading and unloading systems integrate with cutting machines to ensure continuous workflow, reduce manual handling and increase overall workshop efficiency.
What does it mean, concretely:
  • Total control over the process — internally developed design, construction and software
  • Tailor-made solutions — the configuration follows your layout, not the other way around
  • Perfect integration — loading, cutting and unloading managed as a single flow by the CNC
  • Direct assistance — a dedicated technician and spare parts from whoever built the machine

WMTL — Warcom Modular Tower Loader

The modular automatic warehouse, indicated for the management of production characterized by mixed batches and variable thicknesses: it allows the movement of sheet metal with thicknesses up to 25 mm. The modular structure allows the storage capacity to be sized on the actual volume of material and expanded over time.

WFL — Warcom Front Loader

Automatic front loading system, the most compact solution in the range: it feeds the cutting machine from the front, without vertical magazine. Indicated where the height space is limited or where the volume of stored sheet metal is contained.

WLL — Warcom Lateral Loader

Automatic side loading system: feeds the machine from the side, freeing the front of the system for the operator and for maintenance. Typical solution of lines inserted in departments with already defined layout.

WSTL — Warcom Single Tower Loader

Single tower automatic vertical warehouse combined with loading and unloading system. It is the entry configuration to automated storage: a tower of drawers that continuously feeds the laser and makes unattended production possible.

WDTL — Warcom Double Tower Loader

Automatic double tower vertical warehouse: doubles storage capacity and allows you to keep multiple types of material in line at the same time. The choice for those working on heterogeneous orders or aiming for production continuity on uncovered shifts.
