Frequently Asked Questions
What is a KPT tow cable transfer cart?
It is a rail guided transfer cart powered by a tow cable. It is mainly used for fixed-route heavy material handling in factories, workshops and warehouses.
When should I choose a KPT transfer cart?
KPT is suitable when your transfer route is fixed, the running distance is short or medium, and you want a simple and economical cable-powered solution.
What is the difference between KPT and battery transfer cart?
KPT uses a tow cable for power supply, which is simple and economical. Battery transfer carts are more suitable when cable-free operation is required and charging time is acceptable.
Can the load capacity and platform size be customized?
Yes. We can customize load capacity, platform size, rail gauge, running speed, control method and special tooling according to your project.
What information do you need for quotation?
Please provide load capacity, material size, rail length, rail gauge, running distance, cable length, voltage, working frequency and any special functions needed.
