In May 2025, a Peru-based trading company contacted Kinocranes for a heavy-duty transport solution. Their goal was to move loads weighing up to 5 tons in their facility, with clear needs: cost efficiency, dependable quality, and battery-powered operation for cable-free movement.
Following a full evaluation of available options, the customer confirmed our BPC-5-Ton Battery Transfer Cart as the best fit. The equipment’s specs aligned with their operational needs, and our proven expertise in custom material handling solutions sealed their decision.

Maintenance-Free Power: The 48V battery system adopts sealed maintenance-free batteries, so you don’t need to do regular water refills or acid level inspections. It supports automatic charging and is equipped with a low-battery alarm to avoid deep discharge damage.
Variable Speed Control: Operators can adjust the travel speed between 0–20 m/min according to load status and site needs. Stepless speed control ensures smooth start and stop, which effectively reduces load shifting during movement.
Dual Control Options: Pendant control for precision positioning and wireless remote for operator safety and visibility. The flexibility allows adaptation to different workspace conditions.
Electromagnetic Braking: Motor-integrated brakes activate automatically once power cuts out or operators release the controls, stopping 5-ton loads from moving out of control.
The trading company uses the BPC-5T for transferring materials between storage areas and processing stations. Typical loads include metal stock, finished goods, and equipment components weighing up to 5 tons. The battery-powered design allows the cart to operate anywhere on the facility's rail track system without being tethered to power cables.
Rail-mounted operation ensures consistent, predictable movement patterns. The low platform height (approximately 400mm) facilitates easy loading and unloading using forklifts, hoists, or manual methods.
The 5 Ton Battery Transfer Cart was delivered and commissioned at the customer's facility in Peru. The equipment met the specified requirements for capacity, operation, and build quality. The customer reported satisfaction with the cart's performance in daily material handling operations.
