Frequently Asked Questions
A Low Height Heavy Duty Transfer Cart (LHDC) is designed to transport extremely heavy and oversized loads at a minimal loading height, eliminating the need for high lifting operations. With its low-profile chassis, LHDC solutions reduce operational risk, improve load stability, and simplify handling in applications where lifting heavy loads is unsafe, impractical, or restricted. This makes LHDC ideal for heavy industrial environments requiring maximum stability and controlled movement.
FADA LHDC systems can be engineered with load capacities ranging from 100 tons up to 400 tons, depending on project requirements. These carts can reach speeds of up to 20 m/min and are equipped with polyurethane or vulkollan wheels for high load distribution and floor protection. Control options include remote control, semi-automatic, or fully autonomous operation. Power supply configurations can be designed with lithium battery or diesel systems, supported by high-efficiency AC or PMAC motors. Optional safety features such as laser scanners, ultrasonic sensors, and hydraulic lifting modules can be integrated as required.
LHDC solutions are particularly advantageous in industries where heavy components must be transported with minimal lifting height and maximum stability. Typical applications include transformer handling, wind turbine components, shipbuilding sections, nuclear power plant equipment, heavy molds, and steel coils. The low center of gravity significantly improves safety and control, while optional multi-directional movement enables precise positioning even in confined industrial spaces.
