New SWS solid wood storage from Barbaric

 Tuesday, January 31, 2023

Barbaric brings innovation to solid wood handling with their all new SWS solid wood storage system -the optimal system for the storage of glulam and KVH poles. This allows for the storage of solid wood logs in stanchion compartments that can later be fed to cross-cut saws or joinery lines. These plants stand out for their remarkable flexibility. The stanchion compartments can easily be adapted to the desired log widths. In comparison to conventional one-dimensional storage, the system’s performance is greatly improved by the ability to store many logs in one layer each stanchion compartment. Chain conveyors or roller conveyors can be easily integrated into the system.

The suction beam
The suction traverse is designed to assist several bars to be picked up simultaneously. The individual suction circuits are automatically controlled according to the requirements or the dimensions and number of bars. With only one stroke several bars can be transported and thus also a lot of energy is saved. This ignites the system in achieving maximum performance. Cracked bars can also be transported with the specially developed suction cups.

Interlinking with machines & ERP system
Depending on the desired application, a wide variety of machines can be linked. Whether simple cross-cut saws or complex joinery centres – everything is possible. Further handling with finished individual parts is also made feasible. The connection of the machines is realised via modern interfaces. The open interfaces can also be used by ERP systems. All storage and material data are available to other systems.

Simple or multi-level solutions
It can be realised as a floor storage system but also as a two-storey version. Depending on the required performance of the system, one or two manipulators can be used. The next step is a two-level facility. High hall heights are optimally used by adding an intermediate floor to the system and the resulting upper area can also be used for storage. The lower stacking heights even allow storage without stanchions. Plus, this machine is not only a warehouse but also helps the environment with the chosen technology. Each and every function is so designed as to maximise output and be sustainable at the same time.
