Low-Voltage Rail Transfer Cart: A Reliable Choice for Industrial Heavy-Duty Goods
Do you struggle with moving heavy loads efficiently in your facility? The low-voltage rail transfer cart is a game-changer for short-distance industrial transport—easy to operate, safety-focused, and engineered to handle extreme heavy-duty demands.
A low-voltage rail transfer cart is an electric, rail-mounted transport vehicle powered by a factory’s electrical system. It’s purpose-built for moving heavy goods (from steel coils to industrial machinery) between workshops, warehouses, or production stations. Unlike forklifts or manual transport, it offers stable, low-maintenance, and scalable solutions for repetitive heavy-load movement.
Core Advantages of Low-Voltage Rail Transfer Carts
Safe and Secure: Operates on a safe voltage, eliminating electric shock risks for workers. No external wires or cables are required, thus avoiding tripping hazards or equipment damage.
Strong Heavy-Duty Capacity: Load capacity ranges from several tons to hundreds of tons (product parameters can be customized), easily handling large/heavy industrial goods such as steel coils, machinery, and molds.
Convenient and Efficient: Runs smoothly on rails, equipped with remote or wired control systems for simple operation. Can be integrated with factory automation systems to achieve unmanned operations.
Suitable for Various Factory Scenarios: Applicable to manufacturing plants, metallurgical facilities, automobile factories, and other industrial sites. Supports operation on straight, curved, or S-shaped rails to adapt to different track layouts.
Working Principle
Convert the factory’s 380V power supply to 36V safe low voltage via a transformer.
Transmit the low-voltage power to the cart’s dedicated rails.
The transfer cart draws power from the rails to drive the motor.
Control the cart’s start, stop, and speed adjustment via a remote control or wired handle.

FAQ
1. What industries can use low-voltage rail transfer carts?
They are widely applicable inmanufacturing, metallurgy, automotive, shipbuilding, chemical, and warehousing industries—any sector with heavy-load short-distance transport needs. For example, a steel mill uses them to move 100-ton steel coils between rolling mills, and an auto plant relies on them to transport car bodies between assembly stations.
2. How safe is the low-voltage design?
The carts operate at36V low voltage(converted from the factory’s 380V power), eliminating electric shock risks for workers. There are no external cables, so tripping hazards are avoided. A chemical plant reported zero electrical safety incidents in 5 years of using these carts.
3. Can the load capacity be customized?
Absolutely. Load capacity ranges from5 tons to 500 tons—we’ll tailor it to your exact needs. For instance, a heavy machinery manufacturer needed a 300-ton cart to move large equipment, and we delivered a fully customized solution.
4. What types of rails do they support?
They work onstraight, curved, and S-shaped railsto adapt to your facility’s layout. A beverage factory with a curved production line saw a 40% reduction in transport time after installing curved rails for the carts.
5. How is the cart controlled?
You can choose betweenwireless remote control (up to 100m range) or a wired handle. Both allow for easy start/stop and speed adjustment. Many clients opt for remote control to let operators manage transport from a safe distance, reducing manual labor by 60%.
7. Can they integrate with factory automation systems?
Yes. They can connect to your existing automation setup forunmanned operations. An electronics factory integrated them with their production line, achieving 24/7 material transport without human intervention, boosting efficiency by 50%.
