STOPA Sheet Metal Storage:
Modern sheet metal storage means much more than just stacking and moving sheet metal.
Modern sheet metal processing is unthinkable without a flexible form of sheet metal storage, especially without continuous feeding and emptying of the production machines as they operate. When viewed as a whole, the largest potentials for improving productivity lie not with the processing machines themselves, but automated sheet metal storage. Today's production lines contain expensive processing machines that often make round the clock operation necessary to be economically viable. As sheet metal storage systems and their guaranteed continuous flow of materials continue to gain importance, the storage system itself becomes more and more a form of logistics center.

STOPA Sheet Metal Storage – Your Advantages:
Sheet metal storage racks from STOPA distinguish themselves through their modular construction, high turnover rates at payloads up to 5t all on a minimum of ground area and customised levels of automation. The automated sheet metal storage systems STOPA TOWER Flex, STOPA COMPACT and STOPA UNIVERSAL are of course available with both a stock management system as well as an interface to established ERP Systems.
STOPA Storage Systems – Automated Sheet Metal Storage is wide open
STOPA sheet metal storage systems are conceived and designed for automated operation and integration with all established processing machines. Lower manpower requirements through fully automated handling and storage in the sheet metal racks, avoidance of expensive warehousing through maximum use of available space per sheet metal rack, the highest materials availabilities due to storage in close proximity to production lines and central stock management – all of these features separate STOPA sheet metal storage solutions from conventional sheet metal storage.
Beside our sheet metal storage systems, our product portfolio also offers automated storage solutions with a wide variety of features for long bar goods.
