Electric Transport Equipment for the Precast Concrete Industry | HENSEN

August 6, 2025

Custom Handling Solutions for Precast Components and Modular Construction

Precast concrete, also known as PC components, refers to concrete structures manufactured in a factory setting through standardized, mechanized production. This contrasts with traditional cast-in-place concrete, which is molded, poured, and cured directly at the construction site.

Precast concrete products are widely used in residential and commercial buildings, infrastructure projects, and energy facilities—including battery storage stations, substations, and transport tunnels—making them a critical part of modern industrial development.

Advantages of Precast Concrete Over Cast-in-Place Construction

  • Safety: Factory-based operations reduce on-site construction risks
  • Quality: Mechanized processes ensure consistent product precision
  • Speed: Standardized sizes and connection points accelerate installation
  • Cost-Effectiveness: Reusable molds and lower labor requirements reduce total costs
  • Environmental Impact: Minimal dust, noise, and disruption at the construction site

Due to these benefits, precast concrete is gaining momentum not only in China but also in Europe, Japan, South Korea, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East.

Types of Pre-CAST Components Supported by HENSEN

  • Structural elements: precast walls, floors, stairs, balconies, beams, columns
  • Infrastructure units: subway tunnel segments, highway barriers, bridge girders
  • Battery storage enclosures: heavy-duty precast concrete cabins for ESS systems

Inside a 500-Ton AGV: Engineering Ultra-Heavy Automated Transport

Five hundred tons is the mass of a fully loaded jumbo jet, and an ultra-heavy AGV moves it across a factory floor with nobody on board, stopping within millimeters of its target. Vehicles in this class carry wind turbine nacelles, hydropower components, transformer bodies and ship blocks — loads that until recently only moved on

Two heavy-duty AGVs can carry identical brochure numbers — 50 tons capacity, laser navigation, millimeter-class stopping accuracy — and behave completely differently after three years of work. One still stops square at every station and lifts its load dead level. The other wanders off line, wears its wheels unevenly and needs its lifting hydraulics recalibrated

A heavy-duty AGV only earns money while it is moving. A 60-ton vehicle hauling dies, coils or machine bases can replace cranes and forklifts across three shifts — but every minute it spends parked at a charger is capacity you paid for and cannot use. On a small warehouse robot, charging is an afterthought. On

For years, putting a laser-navigated AGV into a factory meant one thing first: mounting reflector columns. Dozens of precisely surveyed reflective targets on walls and pillars, each one a point the vehicle triangulates against — and each one a maintenance liability the moment a rack blocks it or a forklift bends it. 3D SLAM navigation

A Rail Guided Vehicle (RGV) is an electric transfer cart that travels on fixed steel rails to move heavy materials between workstations, production lines, bays, and warehouses. Because the vehicle is guided mechanically by the rails rather than by sensors alone, an RGV can carry extremely heavy loads — from 1 ton up to 500

Energy storage is scaling faster than almost any factory floor was designed for. Walk into a modern battery energy storage system (BESS) plant and the front of the line—module assembly, cell stacking, inspection—is already highly automated. Then you reach the back end, where a finished 20-foot container weighs about 60 tonnes and a 40-foot unit can
