Factory transfer vehicle
Factory transfer vehicle
A transfer truck is a vehicle used to transport any material within a factory.
The transfer car can be used in places that cannot be reached by overhead cranes, which is necessary because the transfer car can move freely on the ground or on the track.
They can also work in place of cranes, which are limited by their capacity and are often busy due to their low numbers in manufacturing plants.

This type of material handling equipment is common in all the largest industries because it limits costs by:
Reduce material handling time
Allows for more efficient and precise production
Such trolleys are also increasingly used for safety reasons: they are the safest way to carry heavy loads because they travel on the ground and have a large number of optional safety features.
Transfer model
Transfer vehicles are generally divided into two types:
– Non-steerable transporter
– Steerable transfer cart
Non-steerable trolleys run on rails and have the advantage of lower rolling friction (steel-to-steel). Therefore, they can move very heavy loads with very little power. They can be powered by batteries, the grid, diesel engines or pneumatics.
The steerable trolley has normal wheels and can be driven freely in and out of the factory without any restrictions. This makes steerable haulers the best solution for factories that need flexibility now and in the future. They can be powered by batteries or diesel engines.
