What is a coil cart?

A coil car, also known as a steel coil cart, steel coil transfer car or coil transfer trolley refers to the same type of equipment — a transportation platform specially designed for transporting, loading, and unloading metal coils. These vehicles effectively handle coil materials while ensuring safety, accuracy, and efficiency, especially in the transport of heavy steel coils and aluminum coils.

The role of a coil cart in the metal processing industry

1. Handling heavy raw materials in workshops
   In metal processing workshops, transporting raw materials is often a major challenge. These materials usually come in coil form, with weights ranging from 1 ton to several dozen tons. Traditional transportation methods may not ensure safe and efficient handling, and can lead to material damage or personal injury. The coil transfer cart however, uses mechanical systems and remote control to quickly and steadily move coils to designated locations, completing complex tasks in a short amount of time.

2. Flexibility and adaptability
   Coil transfer carts are designed to provide flexibility in transportation. They are generally divided into two types:

• Rail-guided coil transfer carts

• Trackless coil transfer carts
  These two categories can adapt to various factory environments. Many models support multi-directional movement. For instance, the PEISA transfer cart launched by PEISA Machinery integrates advanced functions, making it capable of handling materials efficiently even in complex workshop conditions, helping customers maximize the use of limited space.

3. Emphasis on safety
   Safety is a core concern in any industrial operation. The coil car is typically equipped with a V-shaped frame on the platform, similar to a clamping system, which stabilizes the coil and prevents it from falling. By accurately controlling load balance and travel paths, it significantly reduces the risk of accidents, especially when handling oversized or overweight coils. Using a professional coil car is essential in these cases.
