KASTOsort lift
Greater efficiency between material handling and storage
In many companies, automation often ends precisely where material is transferred to storage. Pallets have to be transported, moved or stored manually – a process that costs time, ties up personnel and creates additional sources of error.
With KASTOsort lift, this step is fully integrated. The vertical lift takes care of automated loading of pallet storage systems, seamlessly connecting material handling with the storage system.
The result: a continuous material flow without media discontinuities. Workpieces are transferred directly from the process into storage – efficiently, safely and without additional relocation.
At the same time, the vertical design enables optimum use of the available space. This saves valuable floor space and significantly increases storage capacity.

For which applications and industries is KASTOsort lift suitable?
KASTOsort lift is suitable for all applications in which materials need to be automatically transferred from the machining process into a pallet storage system. Especially in combination with sawing and sorting processes, a major advantage is created when storage takes place without additional manual steps.
Typical areas of application include automated material flows with a connected storage system, where pallets have to be provided and stored efficiently. The lift ensures a reliable connection between machining, handling and storage.
The solution is used, among other areas, in mechanical and plant engineering, in the steel and metal trade and in metalworking. In these industries, companies particularly benefit from the combination of automation, space savings and stable processes.
