Stock systems for storing long materials

Introduction

Stock systems for storing long materialsVoortman is the only machine manufacturer in the market that offers stock systems in combination with automatic loading cranes to load our plate and angle systems. For a well organised and tidy workshop Voortman offers a few material storage solutions. However the main reason for having these systems in the program is that when connected with other machines the complete system can work unmanned for 24 hours per day.

Advantages

Advantages of the stock systems. Click on the advantages to read more.

Stock control

Besides accommodating the material the stock system uses VACAM software to keep track of the processed material, with regular feedback to the work preparation department when the safety stock level is reached. The stock management system can be connected to numerous ERP-systems.

Customized solutions

Due to its modular design the system can be customized to the workshop dimensions and desired capacity of the end user.

If there are height limitations in the workshop the complete system can be extended under floor level.

The material bins in the stock system can accommodate different types of material. The grouping of the material inside the bin can be adapted to customer demand at any time.

Un-manned operation

An automatic production process can be realised by integrating the stock system with an (un)loading crane. The crane is loading the material from the stock system to the processing system. Even rest lengths are controlled and stored for later use. Waste material will be discharged automatically.

The crane is also used for loading the bins with new stock, for this a loading dock is available, that does not disturb the normal daily production.

On the outfeed side the finished products are controlled with a discharge and sorting system. In this way all products, short and long, are proper stored for the following step in your production sequence.

Software

The software program “VACAM-Machine Edition” is installed on the control system. The control system can be integrated in the company’s network, so DSTV- and DSTV+-data can be directly downloaded, from system files within the company database, to the system.

 
Options

The V3000 can be provided with several options. At the moment there are no options available for the V3100 stock system.

Outfeed station with trolley

Outfeed station with trolleyFor loading and unloading of material bins the stock system can be fitted with outfeed stations at the front and/or back of the base frame. The traverse outfeed stations can be combined with an automatic loading crane.

Product sorting system

Outfeed station with trolleyThe loading crane is suitable for the automatic loading of the infeed cross transports e.g. a punching and shearing system with flat steel. The loading crane is provided with several electrically operated switchable magnets.

Traverse outfeed stations

Additional outfeed station at the back of the base frameFor loading and unloading of material bins the stock system can be fitted with outfeed stations at the front and/or back of the base frame. The traverse outfeed stations can be combined with an automatic loading crane.
