The KPT Series Cable Powered Electric Flat Car is a rail-mounted material transfer vehicle designed for heavy-duty industrial transportation.
Powered by an AC cable supply, it offers stable, continuous power delivery for long operation periods—making it ideal for workshops, assembly lines, warehouses, and manufacturing plants.

This transfer cart is built for transferring molds, steel structures, machinery, and raw materials between different bays or process stations.
Its low-voltage AC drive system ensures smooth, safe, and reliable operation across short or medium-distance routes.

 Working Principle

The KPT cable-powered flat car operates through an electric cable reel or drag chain system:

• The cart receives AC power directly from an external power supply (typically 380V).

• The cable is automatically wound and released during the car’s movement, ensuring continuous power feed.

• The current passes through the control system and motor drive, propelling the cart along the rail path.

This system guarantees stable torque output, high energy efficiency, and minimal downtime, ideal for high-frequency material transfer tasks.

 Key Features
