Case Study: 5-Ton Battery-Powered Rail Transfer Cart for a Painting Line in Xi’an

About the Customer

The customer is a Xi’an-based R&D and manufacturing company producing distribution switchgear, instruments, electrical equipment and intelligent power transmission & control gear. Most of their products are large steel enclosures and structural weldments, and surface coating is a critical final process — which means heavy, long workpieces have to be moved repeatedly inside the coating plant.

To improve material handling efficiency and protect freshly painted surfaces, the customer needed a cleaner and more reliable transportation solution. A battery-powered rail transfer cart offered a practical option for moving heavy workpieces along fixed routes without combustion exhaust or trailing power cables.

How the customer originally transported materials and where the problems occurred

  1. The paint surface is prone to contamination.

  2. The labor cost couldn’t be reduced.

  3. The forklift couldn’t “perform” well in the painting workshop.

  4. The original power supply plan was not suitable.

 The requirements list we received

At the technical exchange meeting, the customer clearly listed the requirements:

– Rated load: 5t;

– Dimensions: Length 4200mm × Width 1500mm × Height 750mm

– Battery power supply: No sliding contact lines or cable reels are accepted;

– Wireless remote control operation: Workers can control from a safe position without having to walk along the vehicle;

– Travel along the fixed track according to the preset path, with high positioning accuracy: The workpiece can be successfully aligned once when entering or exiting the spraying room and drying kiln;

– Fully electric drive, without exhaust gas or open flames.

Based on these requirements, a battery-powered rail transfer cart was selected to support the customer’s fixed-route material handling operations.

 Solution:BXC Series Battery-powered Track Flatcar

We provided a customized BXC battery-powered rail transfer cart designed for the customer’s 5-ton load capacity and workshop layout.

For this typical working condition in the painting workshop, we have selected the BXC type battery-powered track flatcar, and the main configuration is as follows:
