Rail Transfer Cart

Rail Transfer Cart is a transportation vehicle that is used to transfer heavy materials on a fixed track inside a factory, mainly to solve the problem of moving materials across workshops or areas and assembly lines inside a factory, also known as electric rail transfer cart, rail flat cart, rail transfer trolley, rail material handling cart. The rail transfer car needs to run on a fixed track, which can be straight, curved or S-shaped.Rail Transfer Cart has a maximum handling capacity of 500 tons. Compared to trackless transfer carts, rail transfer carts are cheaper and more cost effective.

Types of Rail Transfer Carts

Rail Transfer Cart is a rail-type transport vehicle, need to lay the track on the ground, the track is generally I-beam surface contact rail; secondly, it is an electrically driven vehicle, in the motor and reducer drive automatic operation, according to the different ways of power supply rail transfer car, can be divided into battery-powered rail transfer car, cable reel-powered rail transfer cart, slip wire powered rail transfer car, rail transfer cart powered by cable reel, rail transfer car powered by slip wire, dragging cable powered rail transfer car, rail transfer cart powered by low voltage. According to the different handling environment needs, you can choose the applicable power supply method of the rail transfer cart.

• Battery Powered Rail Transfer Cart: the cart uses an industrial special lead-acid battery, which can be cyclically charged, environmentally friendly and durable, and can be adjusted to any speed within the set speed; there is no cable line, there is no restriction on the running distance and running route, it can go straight + arc route, and there are no special requirements for the track; the battery capacity can be increased according to the work intensity requirements to extend the working time; it can be used both indoors and outdoors, and it is also suitable for high temperature (-30℃-70℃), flammable and explosive and other special industrial and mining occasions.

• Cable Reel Powered Rail Transfer Cart: AC 380V electricity provides power to the motor on the transfer cart, and the motor drags the transfer cart to run. The cable reel powered rail transit car is simple to operate, easy to maintain, has high safety and mobility flexibility, high frequency, low noise, the rail electric flat car is not high requirements for the track, if you need to run Longer distance can be achieved by installing a cable reel, and there is no upper limit of load capacity.

• Slip Wire Powered Rail Transfer Cart The safety slip wire slider is driven by the movement of the transit cart to supply power to the transit cart, which requires the opening of a trench on the side of the track and the installation of a safety slip wire in the trench, which is laid on a single surface and fixed to the ground with a hinge. When the electric rail transit car is in operation, the cover is lifted by the trench flap device installed on the transit car, and the flap device contains the cable connected to the safety slip wire collector. The electric flat car is automatically put back to the ground after the cover is passed to ensure the ground is level. Slip wire-powered rail transit car is not limited by the running distance. Suitable for harsh environments and high temperature environments and other occasions, work with high frequency, high safety factor, rate controllability, is a common means of transportation when we carry out cargo handling.

• Cable Towing Line Powered Rail Transfer Cart : one end of the cable is connected to the ground power supply, through the cable sheave, traction wire rope into the control box, and then provide power to the motor on the transfer car, to drag the transfer car operation. But the running distance can not be too long, generally can not exceed 100m, the distance is too long easy to wind the cable. Dragging cable line powered rail transit car on the track laying requirements are not high, can also be installed hydraulic lifting system, side flip, lifting table rolling devices, suitable for harsh, high temperature, explosion-proof environment in long-distance transport.

Low-voltage Rail Powered Transfer Cart : The normal voltage is reduced to 36V safety voltage and then connected to the rail to supply the rail transfer car motor through the rail. The safety performance is higher; no other power supply line connection, so it does not hinder cross transport, and can operate 24 hours a day. However, compared with other rail transit car its cost is higher, the track construction requirements are strict, must ensure that the track insulation, and poor rainproof water is not suitable for use in the open air places, it is recommended that the new plant construction when the track is put into laying.

Advantages of Rail Transfer Cars

• High Handling Capability: Rail Transfer Cart is perfect for transporting large, heavy, and delicate objects in industrial.
• Easy to Operate: Rail Transfer Carts can be controlled automatically or by handle control or remote control, no need for professional staff, easy to learn to operate.
• More Safety: Rail transfer car is handled on a customized fixed track route, which does not affect operations outside the handling area, making it safer and more convenient.
• Rail Carts with High Stability：Rigid tracks installed on the ground and the smooth running of the trolley itself make the handling of the trolley more stable than other handling methods.
• Transfer Rail Carts for Indoor or Outdoor：Rail Transfer Cart can be operated both indoors and outdoors according to the handling requirements, and the handling environment is not restricted.
• Automation is Stronger: the fixed route of the rail transfer vehicle prompts the handling vehicle to complete the scheduled handling tasks independently without special human supervision and control.
• Carts are Perfect for Narrow Spaces：Rail transfer cars only in the ground fixed track operation, do not need other space outside the track and aerial devices and pendants, narrow space can be completed handling tasks.
• Independent and Complementary: Rail Transfer Trolleys possible to attach other devices and functions to the transfer truck platform to undertake handling work alone, or to combine with other handling machinery such as cranes and forklifts for more efficient use.

Core Components of Rail Transfer Cart

• Reducer:Hard tooth surface reducer for flat car, High transmiss ion eff iciency,smooth operation.
• Motor:The motor could work at low speed, with smooth start，large dr iving torque. The motor is powered by low voltage, whichis long service life and small size.
• Cart Structure:We adopt the box beam type structure of the transfer cart. After anneal ing treatment, the cart frame if not easy out shape and with good-looking appearance.
• Wheels:Wheels are special wheel for crane and material is ZG55，overall quenching， the wheel tread and inside flange hardness is HB320 -380，the depth is 20 mm. The rotations is flexible after wheels are assembled. Have advantages of high strength, wear resistance, long service life.
• Electrical Cabinet:Electrical cabinet is equipped with the power switch, and the complete set of electr ical equipment has power distr ibution protection, short circuit protection, over current protection, loss of pressure protection, zero protection, emergency power protection.

Safety Devices for Rail Transfer Cars

• Stopping Device: can effectively protect the personal safety of staff in the transport area.
• Ultimate Limit Device: it can effectively prevent the end of the rail transit car from deviating from the track.
• Sound and Light Alarm Device: it can remind the personnel of the transport site to pay attention to safety.
• Anti-collision Buffer Device:The anti-collision buffer device helps buffering in case of emergency, effectively avoiding damage to the body of the transfer car.
