The Hänel Rotomat® principle

‘Vertical carousel technology’ – simply brilliant

The principle is simple.
The applications are brilliant!

The days when walls were lined with filing cabinets and when archives gathered dust in the cellar are over. The legwork and ladder climbing involved in searching for files are a thing of the past – they cost too much time and money! The compact design of the Rotomat® allows up to 60% more storage capacity to be accommodated on minimal floor space by making use of the available room height.
The operating principle
The Hänel Rotomat® creates an enormous amount of storage space on a small footprint. It works on the Ferris wheel principle, i. e. the archives come to the operator, not the operator to the archives.
The structural design
Self-supporting steel plate casing, comparable to the cellular structure used in the aircraft industry. Lockable, smooth-action sliding doors. Environmentally friendly powder coating, as well as impact-resistant and shock-proof stove enamel finishes. There are five attractive colors to choose from. Customized finishes are possible.
The drive system
400-V three-phase motors (other voltages and Hertz values, as well as AC connection are possible). Pole-switching three-phase motors are used as standard, enabling gentle but powerful acceleration and braking even under different load conditions.
The intelligent Hänel control systems
Powerful microprocessor control units offer the possibility of hooking up to computers and other peripheral devices, giving you an optimal overview at all times.
Hänel service worldwide
Hänel operates internationally and has branches and distributors on all continents. It is supported by an extensive service network under centralized control.
The safety
Hänel ensures maximum safety by
using patented safety threshold
switches and light-barrier curtains
compliant with DIN EN 15095.
