Transfer cars are floor-mounted, rail-guided transport cars. They are used for the independent pick-up and delivery of loading units between fixed transfer points. This allows different internal areas to be efficiently and automatically connected with each other. Depending on the mode of operation, the transfer cars can be subdivided into transverse and longitudinal transfer cars; they also perform sorting and distribution functions. Rail-guided crossing and passing options allow the use of additional transfer cars to cover higher workloads. Further Information.
