The 10 Ton Cable Powered Electric Rail Flat Cart is a rail-guided heavy-duty transport vehicle designed for efficient and safe movement of materials, equipment, and components within industrial facilities.
Powered by a 380V AC cable reel or drag chain system, this flat cart offers continuous power supply, stable performance, and low operating costs, making it ideal for workshops, warehouses, assembly lines, and production plants.
With a robust steel structure and customizable platform design, the cart is built to handle heavy loads reliably over long service cycles with minimal maintenance.
Working Principle
The cart is supplied with 380V AC power through a cable reel (for long-distance travel) or drag chain system (for short-distance use).
The cable provides continuous electrical power to the AC drive motors, allowing the cart to move smoothly along the rails.
This power mode eliminates the need for battery charging, ensuring non-stop operation for intensive production schedules.
