MOBILE ROLL OUT CANTILEVER RACK

Maximize Steel Profile and Pipe Storage with Safety, Space Efficiency, and Ergonomic Access
The Mobile Roll-Out Cantilever Rack is an advanced material storage solution designed to optimize space usage, simplify long material handling, and dramatically improve safety and workflow in industrial environments. Powered by a mobile base system and integrated with roll-out cantilever arms, this rack system eliminates the need for wide aisles and difficult-to-reach storage positions.
Built for storing steel profiles, aluminum extrusions, copper tubes, bars, and other long materials, this rack system is ideal for factories, warehouses, and fabrication shops where overhead cranes are available and floor space is limited.

What Makes It Different?

Unlike traditional fixed cantilever racking, this mobile solution uses powered mobile bases that slide along embedded floor tracks. When material access is required, the selected rack row is rolled out, providing full ergonomic access to every level. There’s no need for forklifts to drive into tight aisles or for workers to climb or reach dangerously.

Paired with telescopic arms, the Mobile Roll-Out Cantilever Rack allows overhead crane operators to load and unload materials directly and efficiently—saving time, improving safety, and increasing density.

Applications

Space Efficiency: Reduces storage space by 50%

Enhanced Work Ergonomics: Quick material state inspection

Automated Loading/Unloading: Shortens material handling time

Operator Safety: Multiple safeguards in place

Configurable Storage: Adjustable shelf spacing

Smart System: Memorizes pallet contents for better organization

Flexible Control: Mechanical or manual system for material planning

Key Features & Advantages

1. Mobile Base System

The foundation of the system is the motorized mobile base that slides laterally on embedded rails.

Zero aisle design: Only one aisle is needed, shared among all racks.

Heavy-duty build: Rectangular steel tubing (up to 300×100×4mm) ensures long-lasting strength.

Tracks with guidance and load distribution: Includes V-groove and flat rails for stability and precision.

Smooth operation: Steel wheels, bearings, and shafts ensure quiet, reliable movement.

2. Powered Movement with Safety Sensors

The movement is powered by electric motors and controlled by distributed or centralized panels

Automatic synchronization between all carriage units.

Entry sensors: Prevent motion if someone enters the aisle.

Safety-first design: Equipped with laser sensors and proximity switches.

Side sensors: Detect obstructions within 100mm during movement.

Limit switches: Provide backup mechanical protection.

Distance sensors: Ensure proper spacing during opening/closing.

3. Roll-Out Cantilever Arms

Unlike fixed cantilever racks, each arm extends outward smoothly for easy access to stored material.

Telescopic design: Makes each level accessible from the side.

Less damage: Materials are not stacked on top of each other, preventing surface scratching or deformation.

Crane-compatible: Perfect for operations using overhead gantry cranes.

4. Ergonomics & Access Efficiency

No need for forklifts to enter narrow aisles or turn in tight spaces.

Optimized for long material retrieval using cranes, reducing handling time by up to 75%.

Reduced manual lifting: Materials are presented directly at a comfortable height.

5. Space Optimization

Save up to 60% of aisle space compared to fixed rack systems.

Expandable design: Add more bays or levels as your inventory grows.

Higher storage density per square meter.

6. Modular & Customizable

Each system is tailored based on your storage needs, facility layout, and material dimensions.

Available in single-sided or double-sided configurations

Custom load capacity up to 3 tons per level

Adjustable height and arm length

Options for manual, semi-automatic, or fully automatic operation

Safety Above All

The Mobile Roll-Out Cantilever Rack places worker safety at the center of its design:

No climbing or deep aisle entry required

Real-time obstruction detection halts system motion to avoid collisions

All operations can be controlled remotely or at the edge of the aisle

Meets or exceeds industry safety standards for moving equipment

Applications

This rack is widely used in:

Metalworking and fabrication facilities

Boost usable storage capacity from 210 tons to over 400 tons

Aluminum profile warehouses

Distribution centers handling long industrial products

 

It’s the ideal solution for operations needing:

High-density long product storage

Minimal aisle space usage

Overhead crane compatibility

Safer and faster access to inventory

Return on Investment

By replacing traditional floor stacking or fixed racks, customers have reported:

50–70% more storage capacity in the same footprint

Labor savings of up to 40% by eliminating unnecessary handling

Reduced product damage and workplace accidents

Payback period often within 12–18 months
