Precast production equipment
Pallet Ferry Transfer Car for Precast Slab Production
A pallet ferry transfer car provides a defined transfer link within a precast slab production layout. The reference equipment offered through REALJET is listed for a prestressed composite slab line and includes hydraulic position locking, coordinated transfer, conductor-rail power and remote or control-panel operation. Its catalogue load is 25 t.
Application
Connect the transfer points in your slab-line layout
The ferry car is specified around the route between its pickup and receiving interfaces. It needs to reach the required position, align with the adjoining equipment and hold the defined position for pallet transfer. Hydraulic locking is one of the reference design's stated features.
The arrangement of beds and pallet movements determines where a ferry car is needed. Its selection should follow a layout showing the transfer duty, rather than a general requirement for a 25 t carrier. The engineering review should identify what moves, where it moves and how the adjoining equipment supports the pallet during handover.
Equipment features
Position locking and transfer control
- Hydraulic position locking: the reference arrangement locks the car at the defined operating position.
- Coordinated transfer: the control concept supports the assigned transfer duty within the selected slab line.
- Conductor-rail supply: electrical power is supplied through the arrangement described in the catalogue.
- Remote and control-panel operation: operators can use the specified control interfaces.
The quoted package should identify the ferry car, the receiving and discharge interfaces, the power-supply boundary and the control handover conditions. These details make the transfer duty clear to both the equipment supplier and the factory team.
Working sequence
Define the transfer sequence at each interface
- Move the car to the required handover location.
- Establish the alignment and position-locking conditions specified for that interface.
- Carry out the pallet handover using the agreed transfer arrangement.
- Release and move to the next assigned position as required by the line sequence.
The precise order of loading, travel and unloading depends on the chosen configuration. Catalogue descriptions do not replace a transfer drawing showing the supported load and equipment responsibility at each stage.

Equipment selection
Specify the route before selecting the car
Provide the production layout, pallet dimensions and maximum loaded handling condition. Mark every pickup and handover point, track or bed interface, required travel direction and station level. Include available space for the car and the conductor-rail installation.
If the plant already uses a pallet transfer trolley, show its duty separately. The two catalogue machines have different stated features and should be checked against their respective interfaces. The ferry car's locking arrangement is not, on its own, a basis for assuming compatibility with an existing pallet or transfer station.
Equipment questions
Frequently Asked Questions
What is a pallet ferry transfer car used for?
It connects defined transfer positions within the selected slab-line layout. Its route and handover arrangement are established from the plant's pallet movement requirements.
How does it differ from the pallet transfer trolley?
The ferry car reference includes hydraulic position locking and conductor-rail supply for its assigned slab-line duty. The separate trolley reference emphasizes synchronized lifting and servo-controlled travel. Actual compatibility depends on the layout and interfaces.
Does the 25 t figure include the pallet?
The catalogue states the equipment load without a complete boundary definition. The project specification must confirm which carried components are included in the rated handling condition.
Is the ferry car suitable for any rail spacing?
The source does not state universal track compatibility. Rail or bed interfaces, station levels and handover positions must be checked for the actual plant.
