Three Types of Rail Transfer Carts for Sale
When using a rail transfer cart, a track needs to be laid on the ground, and the track is generally I-shaped. Depending on the power source, our on rail transfer cart can be battery powered, cable drum powered or low voltage rail powered. These three types have their own unique advantages.
- AQ-KPJ cable drum powered transfer cart is to use AC 380V cable and relys on the the winding device on the transfer cart to wind and unwind the cable to realize power supply. The winding device is placed under the rail transfer trolley. Compared with the AQ-KPX series, it is not limited by the use time, and compared with the AQ-KPD series, this electric transfer cart has less requirements for track laying.
- AQ-KPX battery powered electric flat cart has greater safety performance, mobility and flexibility than AQ-KPJ and AQ-KPD series. In addition, the running distance is not limited, and there is no insulation requirement for the track, so the construction is convenient and the cost is low.
- AQ-KPD low voltage rail powered transfer cart is a 36V single-phase or three-phase low-voltage rail powered electric flat cart, powered by rail sliding contact line. Because no cables are needed, the transfer cart does not hinder the cross transportation, and it is easy to realize remote control and automation, which is very convenient for the transportation arrangement in the factory area. However, the track construction requirements are relatively high, and the track insulation must be ensured.
- In addition, you can equip your rail trolley transfer cart with various options and accessories to work perfectly toward your goals: hydraulic lifting system for simple transportation; flat deck, V-deck, tilting or custom shaped deck to suit your load transporting requirements; fixed pendant control or remote control; controlled direction of motion or mounted on turntable; two carts can be connected to each other for heavier loads, higher efficiency or longer goods; warning horns; marker lights; collision avoidance system, etc.
