Power Tuggers

Power tuggers are walk-behind battery-operated units used for material handling in various industries moving loads up to 80,000 pounds. When you’re moving large loads in a manufacturing facility, and you need a single-operator solution, a heavy-duty power tugger is the ideal choice. Here are the top five reasons why every facility should consider investing in a power tugger:

1. Enhanced Safety in Confined Spaces

Power tuggers are designed to be smaller and more agile, making them ideal for navigating tight, confined spaces. They offer full visibility of your surroundings and are equipped with safety features like audible alarms and light bars. These enhancements reduce the risk of accidents, ensuring a safer work environment for operators and nearby workers. They also feature an auto-reverse “belly-button” to keep operators safe from being pinned when reversing.

2. Cost-Effective Heavy Load Transportation

Power tuggers provide a highly efficient solution for facilities that need to move heavy machinery or bulky items. Traditional forklifts capable of moving massive loads are expensive, but our Power tuggers can achieve similar results at a fraction of the cost. This single-operator solutions makes them a more budget-friendly option for high capacity loads up to 80,000 pounds.

3. Push and Pull the Same Weight

One of the unique advantages of our power tuggers is their ability to both push and pull the same weight. This dual functionality allows them to move objects in a range of applications, from large containers to shifting products through production lines. Their push-pull capability allows operators to move multiple load requirements, increasing operational flexibility.

4. Ease of Use with Standard 110V Outlets

Power tuggers offer convenient charging, as they can be plugged into any standard 110V outlet. This eliminates the need for specialized charging stations or high-voltage outlets, simplifying the charging process for operators. This flexibility allows the tugger to be plugged in anywhere in the facility and ensures that the equipment is always ready for use.

5. Low Maintenance and Durability

Heavy-duty power tuggers are built for industrial use, meaning they are designed to withstand daily workloads in factory environments. They require minimal maintenance, with the most common tasks being the replacement of drive wheels and batteries after extended use. Their durable construction ensures they won’t damage flooring, reducing long-term facility repair costs.

Conclusion

Power tuggers offer an unbeatable combination of safety, efficiency, and ease of use, making them essential for any facility handling heavy loads. They are customizable with various hitch options to meet specific needs, further enhancing their adaptability across different applications. Whether for pushing, pulling, or navigating confined spaces, power tuggers are a must-have solution for improving operational productivity and safety.
