SIDEROS METAL SHEETS LOADING & UNLOADING SYSTEM LoadMaster
SIDEROS METAL SHEETS LOADING & UNLOADING SYSTEM LoadMaster
LoadMaster loads and unloads sheet metal to and from the cutting machine automatically. No crane, no slings, no two people manhandling a plate onto a bed.
The case in heavy and armour plate fabrication
Armour and high-strength plate is heavy, stiff and unforgiving. Every manual or crane-assisted load is a manual handling event, a rigging operation, a scratched surface and a stopped machine. Multiply that by every sheet in a programme and the loading operation — not the cutting — becomes the constraint on the cell.
Automatic loading turns the cutting machine from a machine that waits into a machine that runs. It also removes a whole class of manual handling injuries and crane-related near-misses from your safety record.
Traceability
Where plate must be tracked by heat number through a defence supply chain, controlled automated loading is what makes that record credible — you know which plate went onto which bed, when.
Features
- Automatic loading and unloading of sheet to cutting machines
- Eliminates crane and manual handling from the load cycle
- Reduces machine idle time between sheets
- Protects plate surface finish during handling

Sideros Engineering
Roussakis Supplies is the official partner of Sideros Engineering in Greece. Sideros Engineering designs and manufactures welding automation, industrial fume and dust extraction, and sheet metal handling systems at its facility in Italy. The range is built for heavy fabrication — the kind of work where the weldment is too large to move by hand, the plate is too heavy to lift safely, and the fume and dust generated are a documented occupational and explosion risk.Why Sideros for defence and naval fabrication
Defence and naval manufacturing in Greece is moving fast — armoured vehicle programmes, naval newbuilding and refit, and lightweight aluminium structures. All three create the same three problems on the shop floor: awkward weldments, hazardous atmospheres, and welding procedures that must be qualified, repeatable and documented.Sideros equipment addresses each one directly:
Positioners bring the weld to the welder. Welding downhand instead of overhead or vertical means fewer welding positions, which means fewer qualified WPS, fewer WPQR, and faster qualification of a new programme. ATEX-rated extraction makes aluminium fabrication legally workable.Grinding and cutting aluminium produces a combustible dust with a hydrogen risk in wet collectors. This is not a comfort issue — it is ATEX 2014/34/EU and EN 60079 territory. Fume extraction is a compliance requirement, not an option.** Welding fume has been classified as a Group 1 human carcinogen since 2017. Extraction at source, per EN ISO 21904, is now the expected standard in any audited facility.Local engineering, not just supply
Sideros equipment is supplied through Roussakis Supplies with in-house capability behind it. We integrate positioners with EWM welding sources and the EWM XNET Welding 4.0 platform, giving weld-by-weld traceability, paperless WPS/WPQR management and real-time deviation detection — the documentation trail a defence or classification audit expects. We hold over 30,000 product codes with major brand access and ex-stock availability, in-house know-how for large turnkey welding and positioner projects, and local support for any project based in Greece.
