Description

KPL Series Ladle Transfer Cart‌ is a specialized electric rail vehicle designed for safely transporting molten steel ladles in extreme high-temperature environments (up to 1000℃). As a critical logistics asset in steelmaking, continuous casting, and refining processes, it ensures seamless material flow with robust safety and customization features.

Depending on your actual use, there are different transfer carts for customers to choose from. We have an experienced team of crane engineers. We design the right cart system for you, and provide a full range of after-sales services to enable your crane to operate quickly, stably and reliably.

Advantages

The ‌Electric Ladle Transfer Cart‌ is a purpose-built rail vehicle optimized for safe and efficient molten steel logistics in steelmaking workshops. Its key benefits include:

‌1. Extreme Heat Resistance & Structural Integrity

  • High-Temperature Protection‌: Reinforced steel frame with ceramic fiber insulation shields critical components (motors, electronics) from thermal radiation above 1000°C.
  • Anti-Deformation Design‌: Thickened steel plates and recessed/cutout platforms prevent frame warping or tipping under heavy ladle loads.

‌2. Heavy-Duty Safety & Redundancy

  • High Load Capacity‌: Standard models handle ≥30 tons, with custom versions supporting 100+ tons for oversized ladles.
  • Dual-Drive Redundancy‌: Two independent motor systems ensure uninterrupted operation if one fails.
  • Soft Start/Stop Technology‌: Minimizes molten steel splashing via controlled acceleration/deceleration.

‌3. Smart Automation & Precision

  • Remote/PLC Control‌: Wireless remote or automated PLC operation keeps workers away from hazardous zones.
  • Speed Adjustment & Positioning‌: Adjustable speed (0-25 m/min) enables precise ladle alignment for casting or refining.

‌4. Low Maintenance & Durability

  • Modular Components‌: Standardized, heat-resistant parts (motors, sensors) allow quick replacements, reducing maintenance costs by 30%.
  • All-Weather Adaptability‌: Anti-tip guards, rail clamps, and corrosion-resistant materials ensure reliability in harsh environments.

Features

The main functions of the ladle transfer carts include:

‌1. High-Temperature Resistance

  • Constructed with heat-resistant steel frames and ceramic fiber insulation layers to withstand intense thermal radiation.
  • Anti-spill design (e.g., recessed ladle seating) and rail clamps enhance stability during transport.

‌2. Redundant Drive Systems

  • Equipped with explosion-proof motors or hydraulic drives for precise positioning and tilting operations.
  • Dual-drive redundancy ensures uninterrupted operation even if one system fails.

3. Smart Control & Safety

  • PLC automation and remote-control capabilities enable unmanned operation.
  • Adjustable speed (0-25 m/min), anti-collision bars, and soft start/stop mechanisms minimize molten steel sloshing risks.

4. Flexible Power Options

  • Supports low-voltage rails, cable reels, or battery power for adaptability to diverse plant layouts.

‌5. Heavy-Duty Performance

  • Load capacity: 2-300 tons, with custom models for non-standard ladle shapes or rail configurations.

6.‌ Cost-Efficient Maintenance‌

  • Modular components and quick-disassembly structures reduce downtime, cutting maintenance costs by 30% vs. traditional equipment.
