Overview

Designed for high-mix, high-volume metal fabrication, the PMW Multi-Array Material Library Series is PENTA LASER’s advanced automated storage and retrieval system, tightly integrated with laser cutting lines. It combines compact footprint, multi-layer dense storage, intelligent WMS/WCS control, and one-click material switching, enabling fully automated, unmanned material feeding, storage, and management. As the core “material brain” of smart workshops, PMW drastically boosts space utilization, cuts labor cost, and streamlines production flow.

What Is PMW Multi-Array Material Library?

PMW is a highly integrated, multi-column, multi-level material library built for laser processing workshops. It connects seamlessly with PENTA LASER fiber laser cutters (e.g., BOLT VII series) and automatic load/unload stations, forming a closed-loop automation cell.

Core positioning:

• Multi-array dense storage

• Intelligent material scheduling

• Fast model changeover

• 24/7 unmanned operation

Core Advantages

1. Space-Saving Multi-Array Design

• Vertical space utilization:3–10 layers, 2–6 columns, storing 30–150 pallets.

• Small footprint:Fits standard 3000×1500/4000×2000 pallets; saves 50%+ floor space vs. manual stacking.

• Modular expansion:Add columns/layers on-site without disrupting production.

2. Intelligent WMS/WCS Control

• PENTA LASER’s proprietary WMS (Warehouse Management System) + WCS (Warehouse Control System).

• Real-time inventory tracking, automatic material matching, order-based intelligent scheduling.

• Seamless integration with ERP/MES; supports one-click production launch and full data traceability.

3. Fast & Precise Material Handling

• High-speed stacker crane:80–120 m/min travel, ±0.1 mm positioning accuracy.

• Dual-station exchange:Simultaneous retrieval/storage; material changeover in 5–15 minutes.

• Adaptive gripping:Handles 0.6–25 mm mild steel, stainless steel, aluminum, and alloys.

4. Unmanned & Cost-Effective Operation

• 1-person monitoring for the entire library; reduces labor dependence by 70–90%.

• 24-hour continuous operation; eliminates waiting time between jobs.

• 12–24 month ROI; lower operational cost than traditional manual warehouses.

Technical Highlights

• Max load per pallet:1.5–3 tons

• Standard pallet size: 3000×1500 mm / 4000×2000 mm

• Storage layers:3–10 (customizable)

• Control system:PENTA LASER Smart Manager + WMS/WCS

• Safety:Full enclosure, laser radiation protection, emergency stop & interlock.

Application Scenarios

• Sheet metal fabrication:Multi-material, multi-thickness small-batch production.

• Heavy machinery:High-volume, repeated part cutting.

• Automotive:Precision body & component cutting with rapid material change.

• Energy & new energy:Thick plate and high-strength material processing.

• General manufacturing: Hardware, cabinets, and structural parts.
