It’s time to rethink manual handling in textile manufacturing  

For textile manufacturers, manual handling is often relied on to move heavy loads such as A-frame rolls and reels of fabric and material carts.

With heavy weight involved, multiple employees are often required to move loads by hand, resulting in the risk of injury, fatigue and reduced productivity.

Textile manufacturers are increasingly looking to fit-for-purpose manual handling solutions to reduce the risk of injury and boost productivity. 

Achieve the effortless movement of heavy loads

Empowering a single operator to move even the heaviest loads, electric tuggers help textile manufacturers to eliminate manual handling and reduce the risk of injury.

Typically used to facilitate the effortless movement of heavy A-frame rolls of fabric, electric tuggers make the movements a one-person job, improving safety and boosting productivity.

Minimal training is required to safely operate an electric tugger and we offer training packages to suit every requirement.   

How are electric tuggers powered?   

Electric tuggers are battery-powered, with interchangeable batteries or lithium options available, electric tuggers can deliver 24/7 operation to keep your processes moving.

Offering zero emissions from the point of use, electric tuggers are ideally suited for indoor use, replacing internal combustion engine powered equipment such as forklifts or tow tractors.   

How do electric tuggers connect?     

A range of coupling options is available across the range that maximizes performance, security and safety.

Custom coupling solutions can also be designed for unique applications.
