On September 8, 2025, our company announced the successful completion of a 40-ton electric flat car for steel coil transfer, custom-developed for a metallurgical enterprise, and its imminent delivery to the customer for production. This transfer equipment, tailor-made for heavy materials like steel coils, leverages customized design and advanced technology to offer a new solution for industrial heavy material handling.

Focusing on industry pain points, custom solutions address transfer challenges.

Steel coil transfer in the metallurgical and heavy industry sectors has long faced numerous challenges: The heavy weight of steel coils (often tens of tons) and their prone-to-rolling shape make traditional forklifts inefficient and pose high safety risks. Furthermore, traditional flat cars, with their compact workshop layouts and fixed tracks, lack flexibility and are difficult to adapt to complex working conditions. This customized 40-ton steel coil transfer flat car was developed precisely to meet the customer's core requirements of "high load capacity, high flexibility, and high safety."

According to the head of lifting technology, the customer's workshop features narrow column spacing and complex aisles, making traditional equipment inefficient. To this end, the R&D team specifically optimized the flatcar's steering system and body structure, enabling it to flexibly maneuver in tight spaces, even enabling "on-the-spot rotations" and "M-shaped travel," completely breaking free from the constraints of fixed rails.

Technology empowers a versatile heavy-duty transporter

This customized flatcar integrates multiple core technologies to comprehensively enhance transport efficiency:

Superior load capacity and safety protection: With a rated load of 40 tons, the high-strength welded steel frame and anti-slip stoppers ensure rock-solid stability during coil transport. Anti-collision magnetic strips and limit switches are installed on the body, automatically stopping when encountering obstacles or people, eliminating safety hazards at the source.

Flexible drive and intelligent control: A low-voltage rail power supply (36V safe voltage) eliminates cable entanglement and ensures electrical safety in the workshop. Equipped with a wireless remote control, workers can precisely control the flatcar's forward, reverse, and steering movements from a distance, achieving efficient, one-touch transport. Modular Design and Easy Maintenance: Core components are modularly integrated, allowing battery replacement and motor maintenance to be completed in under 30 minutes. Daily maintenance only requires battery maintenance, resulting in annual maintenance costs far lower than traditional railcars, reducing costs and increasing efficiency for businesses.

Supporting Industrial Upgrades and Demonstrating the Company's Customization Capabilities
"Previously, using fuel-powered forklifts to transfer steel coils was not only inefficient but also posed pollution and safety risks. This electric flat car is environmentally friendly and allows for fast and stable coil transfer." The client's equipment manager stated that the new flat car is expected to increase the workshop's coil transfer efficiency by over 50% and reduce labor costs by 40%.

As a company specializing in the research and development of electric flat cars and handling equipment, our company has been deeply engaged in the industrial material handling field for many years. From low-voltage electric flat cars to trackless universal flat cars, we have provided customized solutions for a variety of industries, including steel, metallurgy, and automotive manufacturing. The successful delivery of this 40-ton steel coil transfer flat car once again demonstrates our core strength of "matching technology to needs and serving the industry with customization," injecting new momentum into the intelligent and efficient upgrade of industrial heavy material handling.
