The KASTO UNIBLOC Stacking Cradle system is the ideal solution where fully automated storage systems are not economically feasible. Often, small storage volumes and small to medium turnover numbers only require a transport device where easy access, small footprint and uncomplicated operation are most important. The KASTO UNIBLOC system is suitable for all material lengths from approx. 10' to 80' and is also available for wide materials such as sheet metal or plates.

It only requires an overhead crane with two hoists and therefore handling of this system is extremely simple.

KASTO is the only manufacturer to offer a stacking cradle system that can pick multiple storage locations at the same time. Due to the unique patented design of the gripping device at the transport beam up to 3 storage locations can be picked up and transported simultaneously which results in faster material handling.

Transport beams can be equipped with lifting magnets so after transporting a cradle, single bars or bundles can be picked with the same beam.

The UNIBLOC system is also available as a fully automated version which is especially suited for applications that require shorter picking times with material lengths of more than 50' that cannot be handled with other automatic storage systems.
