German term

Schienenwagen

German to English Medical Medical: Instruments
"Reinigung der Schienenwagengestellen.

What's a Schienenwagen in the pharmaceutical context? It's like a bogie bolster wagon, but smaller and for indoor use in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals.

Thanks!

Reliable native language source for transfer cart Transfer cart is a kind of cost-effective, safe and flexible material handling cart widely used in fabrication shops, warehouses, metallurgical plants, etc. for load transportation. It can also cooperate with overhead and gantry cranes in the workshop to transport heavy loads across the bridge. Transfer carts are simple devices that operate on floors and do not requires complex or permanent installation. https://steelmillcranes.com/transfer-cart/#:~:text=Transfer ...

pharmaceutical indoor rail car?
Anne Schulz Nov 22, 2020:
There is a similar KudoZ query at https://www.proz.com/kudoz/german-to-english/petroleum-eng-s... I am not sure if there is any more specific solution. As long as you don't know what exactly is to be transported on these "Schienenwagen", they may have any size and format from bolster wagons to H0.

rail-guided / pharmaceutical/ transfer cart

A variation on David M's tracked-trolley theme.

'When in doubt, call it a unit - or widget' is an adage that questionably doesn't quite work here, though rail-guided unit does clock up g/hits,
Example sentence:

Powered steel plate electric transfer cart on rails-PERFECT. Transfer ... Railway handling platform rail guided transfer cart for industry

Peer comment(s):

agree Kim Metzger : I like "rail-guided" added to transfer cart. https://steelmillcranes.com/transfer-cart/#:~:text=Transfer ... /But your reference example is not what we're looking for.

Thanks, Kim. I had been racking: Huber's DEU/ENG translation primer > wrecking my brains to visualis/ze these rail-guided vehicles from my London factory exporting days.

bogie carriage car or trolley (on rails)

Most search results refer to railway wagons, in fact. But the principle is not restricted to that.

The Autonomous Vehicle Emergency Recovery Tool (AVERT) provides a capability rapidly to deploy, extract and remove both blocking and suspect vehicles from vulnerable positions and confined spaces
:
The four lifting devices have to run under the car and move sideways to dock from the inside so as to allow the vehicle to be to be moved without any additional length or width constraints. The solution was to use specially designed low profile mecanum-wheeled bogies which allow omnidirectional movement even under severe loading. To demonstrate the concept the bogies were mounted on a specially designed deployment unit (DU) which could be towed to the operating area and, through mast mounted sensors autonomously prepare a 3D survey to present the scene to the operator who could designate the vehicle to be moved and its destination. This information allowed the insertion path for the unloaded bogies to the selected car and the extraction path for the loaded bogie-car combination to be automatically generated. Once the paths are approved by the operator the bogies are deployed from the unit and the vehicle is docked onto, lifted and extracted autonomously.

Die Werkstücke werden nun automatisiert durch alle Stationen gehandelt. Dadurch wurden unnötige Stehzeiten eliminiert und eine gleichbleibende Auslastung realisiert. Sie werden lediglich auf einem Zulaufband gepuffert aufgelegt und im Auslauf automatisch abgelegt.
