Morello’s rail-guided transfer carts

CAPACITY: 0 – 1000 TONS

With extensive expertise in rail-guided transfer carts, including shuttle lifting carts, Morello has established itself as a leader across various industries, both locally and internationally.

We offer highly specialized solutions tailored to meet our customers’ specific needs. Our operator-controlled rail-guided trolleys are ideal for applications in industrial plants, construction sites, offshore platforms, and vessels. Available in various power supply options – diesel, battery, electric grid, and pneumatic – our carts provide versatile and reliable performance across different environments.

Morello’s rail-guided transfer carts are particularly well-suited for tasks within the steel industry, concrete manufacturing, factory transportation, warehouses, ports, and other heavy-duty sectors that require rail-based movement and operate on fixed production cycles. We also supply modern die-change carts on rails, tailored to the automotive industry’s dynamic needs, to enhance logistics and streamline operations.

Equipped with steel wheels and designed to operate on steel rails, these operator-controlled transfer carts can handle exceptionally high load capacities due to minimal friction between the steel surfaces. In comparison to battery- or diesel-powered trolleys that require steering systems and additional power, our rail-guided transfer carts provide a more cost-effective solution with similar dimensions and loading capacities.

With over 70 years of experience in producing rail-guided transfer carts, Morello offers vehicles integrated with modern technologies and a strong emphasis on design and innovation.

We manufacture a wide range of automatic rail-guided transfer carts, coil transfer carts, and shuttle lifting carts to meet the demands of end customers and EPC companies seeking to automate material handling processes. Furthermore, we provide fully automated transfer carts capable of interfacing with plant management software.

Morello has supplied automatic transfer carts to steel mills, heavy-load warehouses, and various manufacturing industries worldwide.

Our operator-controlled rail-guided transfer carts are commonly used in the following applications:

Connecting multiple bays in industrial buildings
Linking buildings to storage yards
Establishing connections between different plants and departments
Reducing the workload on cranes within bays
