Product Overview
Rail/Track Transfer Carts(Trolleys) are fixed-track transport vehicles used for short-distance movement of heavy goods, equipment, steel structures, molds, coils, and industrial materials. They are commonly used in factories, warehouses, mines, metallurgy plants, casting workshops, vehicle manufacturing, building materials plants, and other material handling sites.
These rail transfer carts run on fixed tracks and can be customized according to load capacity, table size, track gauge, running distance, power supply method, working frequency, and site environment. According to the power supply method, this product series includes KPX battery-powered rail transfer cart, KPC busbar-powered rail transfer cart, KPD low-voltage rail powered transfer cart, KPJ cable drum powered rail transfer cart, and KPT cable chain powered rail transfer cart.
Rail/Track Transfer Carts(Trolleys) with 5 Power Supply Options
KPX Battery-Powered Rail Transfer Cart uses batteries installed inside the cart to supply power to the DC traction motor through the electrical control system. It can start, stop, move forward, reverse, and adjust speed smoothly. This type is suitable when the running distance should not be limited by cables or external power carriers.
KPC Busbar-Powered Rail Transfer Cart uses a sliding contact line power supply method. It can be used frequently and is suitable for long-distance transportation, ultra-low platform railcars, cross-workshop ferry transfer, and high-temperature working environments where continuous operation is required.
KPD Low-Voltage Rail Powered Transfer Cart uses a transformer to reduce the power supply to a safe low voltage and introduces power through the tracks. It can be used on S-shaped tracks and curved tracks, and is suitable for heavy-load and high-frequency transfer applications where full automation can be configured.
KPJ Cable Drum Powered Rail Transfer Cart receives power through a cable and cable reel device. The cable is wound and unwound during cart movement, making it suitable for heavy-load and high-frequency transfer occasions. It can be used for harsh environments, high-temperature environments, and special working conditions after confirmation.
KPT Cable Chain Powered Rail Transfer Cart introduces power through a cable chain arrangement and is commonly used for short-distance cross-bay transfer in workshops. It is suitable for simple structure, low-cost, high-frequency, and low overall height transfer applications where the cable can be protected by a drag chain.
For selection, please confirm load capacity, table size, track gauge, running distance, power supply method, operating mode, working environment, transported material, automation requirement, and whether remote control, obstacle avoidance, limit switch, hydraulic lifting, or PLC control is required. For related equipment, you can also view Gantry Cranes, Overhead Cranes, and Electric Hoists.
