Swiewel, Rear Axle Steering and Crab, Carousel and Diagonal Maneuver Systems

Battery-powered heavy-duty transfer carts are advanced industrial vehicles designed for safe, precise, and efficient material handling operations within manufacturing facilities and logistics centers. One of their most distinctive features is their superior maneuver capability.

Jib and rear axle steering combined with crab, carousel, and diagonal movement technologies allow these carts to operate smoothly even in narrow and geometrically complex production environments.

Jib – Rear Axle Steering System

The jib and rear axle maneuver system fixes the front wheels while allowing steering through the rear axle.

This mechanism enables tight turning radiuses and provides flexible route management inside restricted production areas.

Crab Maneuver

Crab maneuver allows the transfer cart to move laterally in a parallel sliding motion.

This function is especially valuable for mold handling areas, narrow storage zones, and any operation requiring precise side alignment.

Carousel Maneuver

Carousel maneuver enables the transfer cart to rotate 360 degrees around its own axis without changing its footprint.

This capability accelerates loading and unloading operations by eliminating the need for wide turning areas.

Diagonal Maneuver

Diagonal maneuver allows simultaneous forward and sideways movement at an angle.

It offers maximum directional flexibility in complex factory layouts and obstacle-dense environments.

Advantages of Battery Transfer Carts

• Energy Efficiency: Low consumption with electric drive systems.
• Eco-Friendly: Zero emissions and silent operation.
• Low Maintenance Costs: Long-life motors and battery technology.
• High Positioning Accuracy: Millimetric load placement capability.
• Maximum Safety: Sensor-assisted maneuver and navigation systems.

Flexible and Safe Material Transport

Thanks to jib, crab, carousel and diagonal steering systems, battery-powered transfer carts provide unmatched maneuverability in narrow work environments while ensuring load safety and positioning precision.
