What is a Transfer Cart


What is a Transfer Cart?

A transfer cart is a safe, ergonomic, and cost-effective material handling vehicle used to transport heavy loads. It is commonly used for the transfer of coils, turbines, transformers, molds, sheet metals, large cast parts, and various machine components. Transfer carts, which can work simultaneously with cranes and move around the field, do not require a complex or permanent setup. These features increase operational efficiency in factories and production facilities.

Transfer carts are designed and manufactured by Fada Engineering to meet various needs. They can be integrated with overhead cranes or used to transport materials from one point to another. Our transfer carts are widely used for coil and sheet transportation, mold handling, concrete block and part transfer, tanker and wagon transportation. Additionally, they provide solutions for transporting wind turbines and blades, transformers, and ship parts.

How to Choose the Right Transfer Cart for Your Business

Selecting the right electric transfer cart depends on factors such as load capacity, working environment, table size, material type, and specific requirements. Depending on different working conditions, you may opt for highly maneuverable or rail-based carts. The design features and power source of the transfer cart can also influence your decision.

Which transfer cart model should you choose? Depending on different operating conditions, you can select from various types of electric transfer carts, such as high-maneuverability carts, low-maneuverability carts, or rail-based transfer carts.

What is Nominal Load? Since electric transfer carts with different load capacities have varying characteristics, their designs, operating speeds, maneuverability, and costs differ as well.

What Should the Table Size Be? The table size can be customized according to the client's requirements.

What Kind of Material Will Be Handled? Will the transportation be done in special environments such as high temperature or high pressure?

What is the Power Source? Battery/Diesel/Electric

Do You Have Special Requirements? For example, an electric transfer cart can be equipped with an LCD screen to display load data, or the cart can have a lifting platform.

To determine the most suitable transfer cart, consider the questions above and contact Fada Engineering. Our engineers are always ready to assist you in finding the best solution for your needs.
