Tugger trains

How a tugger train works
There are different types of tugger trains. Tugger trains pull a load carrier, which can be moved either hydraulically or pneumatically, and which picks up load carriers supported on casters. This is done either fully automatically or with manual loading. As a rule, tugger trains are used as so-called circular train systems. A manned tractor unit maneuvers any number of trailers with their load from the pick-up point to the destination along a predefined route within the premises. Possible destinations in the industrial environment include warehouses, assembly stations and production lines. Once they have arrived at their destination, the goods can be removed as required and with minimum expenditure of time, either in the form of individual trailers or load carriers.
