Transfer Cart
The transfer cart moves crate stacks, pallets and pallet stacks sideways between conveyor lines. The rail-guided cart is positioned accurately by a gear motor controlled with an absolute encoder, and an integrated roller conveyor moves the load on and off the cart.
It is available as 1-place and 3-place models and as a version for 660 l bins. The construction is stainless steel.

A transfer cart between conveyor lines
When a line has several parallel conveyors, buffer lanes or storage positions, the transfer cart links them without a forklift. The cart receives a stack or pallet from one conveyor, travels along its rails to the right lane and feeds the load onto the next conveyor.
In delivered systems the transfer cart has, for example, taken roll containers from a buffer position to the unloading station, moved full crate stacks from stack buffer conveyors to robot palletizing, and served as a belt-driven cart in a bin store.
How the transfer cart works
The cart runs on rails with a toothed belt drive. A gear motor controlled by an absolute encoder positions the cart accurately and repeatably at each lane, and the integrated roller conveyor moves the load on and off the cart.
Electric drive and PLC-compatible control allow automatic operation as part of the wider logistics chain. The hygienic stainless steel construction is easy to clean and maintain in food and packaging plants.

Frequently asked questions
What can the transfer cart carry?
Crate stacks, pallets and pallet stacks, and with the bin version, 660 l bins.
Does the transfer cart run automatically?
Yes. Electric drive and PLC-compatible control let it run automatically as part of the line, together with the conveyors it serves.
How accurate is the positioning?
Positioning uses a gear motor controlled by an absolute encoder, so the movement is accurate and repeatable.
