Frequently asked questions
Transfer Cars are used for moving heavy loads like slabs, billets, and coils across shop floors. They ensure safe and efficient material transport inside plants.
Yes, transfer cars are built for capacities ranging from a few tons to over 300 tons. Their robust structure and heavy-duty wheels ensure smooth load handling.
Both options are available. Rail-mounted cars are ideal for fixed routes, while battery-operated free-moving cars provide flexibility across shop floors.
Transfer cars reduce reliance on overhead cranes for internal movement. This ensures faster material flow and improved workflow efficiency.
