Tugger Carts

50 x 50 inch (1260 mm x 1260 mm) tugger cart with flat deck for containers sized 48 x 40 inches or 48 x 48 inches. This industrial tugger train cart is equipped with a drop pin tow bar and removable handlebar developed by FlexQube. The cart is designed with a floor brake.

The FlexQube tugger carts are designed to match the dynamic and constantly changing environment material handling currently exists in. Materials are constantly changing which makes it difficult for purchasers and lean engineers to manage their stock of material handling equipment. The FlexQube concept lets you purchase tugger carts now, but they can then be easily edited in the future.

70 x 36 inch Flat Shelf Tugger cart. The shelf heights can be easily adjusted within 70mm intervals. This cart is equipped with drop pin hitch. The FlexQube core concept allows you to easily add or remove shelves to this cart easily on-site by your operators.

Modern production processes increasingly require flexible material flow concepts. The material flow must be effective, demand-driven, and at the same time, resource-optimized. Following this trend, the use of tugger train systems for material supply in manufacturing companies increases. They provide workstations time and space-efficient with production parts.

Manufacturing operations are currently showing a clear trend when it comes to the practice of lean production: replenishment of assembly lines with production material by tugger trains.

This system allows lean concepts with a Just In Time (JIT) or Just In Sequence (JIS) supply of material. With this, FlexQube supports its customers in implementing modern solutions for production and flow of material.

There are many advantages to using tugger trains to provide material:
Throughout the supply processes, pre-commissioned load carriers can be moved to defined points to allow supply on demand. The trend towards small load carriers is ideally reflected by this method of transportation.

A single operator can supply material to an area of production alone without a forklift truck or pallet truck. This means fewer trucks in the fleet with cost savings for investment, operation, and staff. The transport by tugger train within production areas is faster and safer than transporting pallets by lift truck and handling time is reduced to a minimum.

Additional benefits are the simultaneous provision and removal of materials and empty load carriers, clearly defined transport routes without wasted empty journeys and a reduction of traffic in the production area.

With the tugger trains from FlexQube, the noise level is reduced due to the high-quality polyurethane casters used on the carts. The possibility to connect carts with multiple dimensions in the same train maximize the flexibility in your operations. In addition to this, a tongue and hitch tugger train system makes it possible to disconnect a cart and place it on either side in the aisle. You can go left or right and with fixed casters in the center of the cart, it will pivot around its own center axis, making the turn extremely easy even with heavy loaded carts.
