SC Australia Sheet Metal Storage System Installation And Operation

SC Australia sheet metal storage system 3015 ordered by our Australian customer last year has been delivered to the factory. The Shenchong technical team has successfully completed the installation and commissioning at the customer’s factory. The 3015 sheet metal storage system is now in use in the Australian workshop.

1. Australia Sheet Metal Storage System 3015

SC 3015 Automatic Sheet Metal Storage System is an intelligent, three-dimensional storage and automated loading/unloading system specifically designed for 3000×1500 mm standard sheet metal. It is widely used in sheet metal production lines such as laser cutting, punching, and bending.

Through a three-dimensional material storage system + automatic lifting and retrieval system + intelligent control system, it achieves high-density storage, rapid retrieval, and unmanned loading/unloading of sheet metal.

2. Warehouse Maintenance and Operation Key Points

Daily Inspection: Check guide rails/conveyor belts, pallet status, barcode reading/writing, and emergency stop button function; ensure racks are free from deformation.
Weekly Inspection: Clean vision/sensors, lubricate moving parts, and verify inventory batches.
Quarterly/Annual Inspection: PLC/servo calibration, electrical cabinet cleaning, software backup and upgrade, and mechanical fastening testing.
Spare Parts: Maintain a stock of gripper rubber, sensors, several pallets, conveyor belt sections, air filters, and PLC modules.
Training: Pre-job training on operation and maintenance.

3. Installation and Commissioning of SC Automated Sheet Metal Warehousing System

Wuxi Shenchong has an experienced technical team. We can provide you with comprehensive installation, commissioning, and after-sales service.

1) Pre-Installation Preparation

- Site Condition Confirmation

This is the most easily overlooked but most crucial step.

Foundation bearing capacity
Space and passageway
Environmental requirements

- Utility Preparation

Power supply
Grounding
Air supply
Network
Lifting

- Technical Document Confirmation

Before installation, the following must be confirmed:

Equipment assembly drawing & foundation drawing
PLC I/O point list
Electrical schematic diagram
Equipment connection protocol
Safety circuit diagram (emergency stop/light curtain)

2) Equipment Installation Process

Step 1: Foundation and Positioning
Step 2: Vertical Warehouse Main Structure Installation
Step 3: Material Handling Device (Robot/Truss)
Step 4: Conveying System Installation
Step 5: Electrical and Control System Installation
Step 6: Safety System Installation
Step 7: Software System Deployment

3) Commissioning Phase

Single Machine Commissioning (Without Material)
Empty Pallet Commissioning
Materialized Commissioning (Critical)
Stability and Pressure Testing

SC automated sheet metal storage systems are used for storing, conveying, and automatically feeding/unloading common steel plates, stainless steel plates, and aluminum plates used by the 3015 cutting machine. Suitable for small to large sheet metal processing workshops looking to increase production capacity, save labor, reduce material waste, and achieve digital management.

Main objectives:

Automate unloading/loading, achieving unmanned or semi-unmanned operation in conjunction with the 3015 cutting machine.
Reduce sheet metal handling damage and mis-materials, improving changeover speed and production line uptime.
Integrate with workshop MES/ERP/CNC systems to record material batches and inventory locations, enabling traceability.
