Control options that solve your challenge
From fingertip control to fully autonomous
We know that the one-size-fits-all approach doesn't work when it comes to material handling. That's why we have developed a range of advanced control options so you can be sure that a MasterMover electric tug solution will solve the exact challenges you need it to.
Starting with intuitive pedestrian control, add capability as your operation demands it – stepping up to remote control, multi-machine synchronization, to fully autonomous. And all in the same product range.
Hands-on control
Simple & quick for everyday manoeuvres
Ideal for:
Frequent, hands-on movements where the operator stays close to the load during movement and visibility is good.
The operator walks with the machine and controls it directly via the tiller arm. Our most established control method, available across every range. Intuitive, dependable, and ready out of the box.
- No operator licence or certification needed
- Simple and easy-to-use for any team member
- Precise load positioning with intuitive tiller control
Available on:
Remote Control
Step back & stay in control for complete visibility
Ideal for:
Applications where the load blocks line of sight or where the operator needs to move around freely.
Wireless operation that lets the operator step away from the load to take up the ideal vantage point for maximum visibility and control. Available as Basic (straight line forwards/backwards) or Full (multi-directional).
- Up to 150m range for clear line of sight
- Total freedom of movement for operators to see around the load
- Stops as soon as the controls are released
- Simple and easy-to-use intuitive control
- No operator license or certification needed
Available on:
TillerLink
One operator, two machines for twice the capacity
Ideal for:
Longer or heavier loads that need more than one machine for optimum positioning and manoeuvrability, without the need for remote control operation.
Synchronise two pedestrian-operated PowerSteered tugs to double the weight-moving power and maximise manoeuvrability whilst maintaining hands-on control. The machines work in unison to give one operator total control of challenging loads without compromising on precision or safety.
- Move heavier loads by combining capacity of two machines
- Efficient movements that only require a single operator
- Keeps intuitive tiller control for precise load positioning
- Easily switch between single and multi-machine modes
- Four built-in steer modes for full range of movement
Available on:
MultiLink
Move the impossible up to 300,000kg
Ideal for:
Long, heavy, awkward loads that need coordinated multi-point movement, such as wind turbine blades and large data centre HVAC units.
Combine the power of multiple electric tugs for even more weight-moving capacity up to 300,000kg to move the impossible with a single remote control. Using our patented MultiLink technology, the tugs work together as one system so that the load is always protected; no twisting, no flexing, no shunting – just precision movement.
- Move up to 300,000kg with a single operator
- Patented, industry-defining technology
- Balanced traction prevents loads from twisting or flexing
- Remote control up to 150m range for clear line of sight
- Additional banksman controls for added safety
Available on:
Wireless Auto Steer
Your first step into automation
Ideal for:
Repeated point-to-point movements through tight or fixed routes, where guided accuracy matters but full automation isn’t required.
The electric tug follows a floor-mounted line for direction while the operator controls the speed, a reliable bridge between remote control and full automation to deliver accurate, repeatable material handling routes with an operator still in the loop.
- Accurate, repeatable routes for simple automation
- Following a line on the floor for reliable routes
- Operator remotely controls speed to maintain control during movement
- The first step towards industrial automation

Available on:
AGV Line Follow
Fully automated & best-in-class safety
Ideal for:
High-volume, repeatable movements between fixed points where a defined floor route works well.
Fully automated, line-guided movement through site. Safety scanners identify hazards and bring the machine to an automatic stop to maximise safety and triggers can be set to define speed changes or other actions along the route.
- Fully automated solution that follows pre-defined lines on the floor
- Best-in-class safety scanners identify hazards and stop the machine
- Repeatable accuracy following the same route time after time
- Easy-to-modify as layouts change, even in tight spaces
- Add trigger points to define speed changes or actions

Available on:
AGV Natural Feature Navigation
Dependable industrial automation with centimetre accuracy
Ideal for:
Dynamic environments and flexible routes where a fixed line route isn’t practical.
Fully autonomous movement that uses natural feature and GNSS navigation to localise and move autonomously around your site and outdoors between buildings by referencing existing permanent features, such as walls and pillars, for dependable performance and simple change management as operations evolve.
- Robust and reliable for industrial sites
- Real-time obstacle detection for maximum safety
- Centimetre accuracy when travelling outdoors with GNSS
- Easily scalable for consistently reliable route performance
- Field-proven technology developed to scale with growth
- Fast installation and easy-to-adapt when layouts change

300% Efficiency increase for Sunbelt
Remote Control
Challenge
Forklifts were used to shunt large, heavy trailers resulting in risk of damage and downtime, with multiple operators required.
Results
After switching to our remote control PowerSteered tuggers, Sunbelt have increased cabin movement efficiency by 300% and reduced forklift truck time by 50% - freeing up staff to focus on getting cabins prepared in the workshops.
AGVs accelerate efficiency at Toyota
Challenge
Repetitive long-distance load movement tied up skilled staff and limited throughput at Toyota's plant.
Results
By incorporating our fully autonomous AGV electric tow tuggers, Toyota has maximized shop floor performance to automate the load movement of resin back doors whilst navigating through the facility and interacting with other plant traffic and systems - allowing staff to refocus on higher-value work.
Moving the impossible in the energy sector
Challenge
Heavy or long loads are impossible to move with traditional handling equipment
Results
Loads can be moved safely and precisely using multiple electric tuggers that work in unison, all controlled by a single operator through our patented MultiLink technology. Ideal for long, fragile wind turbine blades that risk twisting or bending during movement with forklifts, as well as large and heavy chiller or HVAC units for data centers that need to be maneuverd through tight spaces.
Engineered where others stop
Not every engineering problem has an off-the-shelf answer. MultiLink and TillerLink have been developed because some loads are too heavy, complex, or awkward for any conventional approach.
Both are patented technologies that started as problems operators couldn't solve any other way.
Born from the floor
Starting out as challenges our customers couldn't solve any other way, MultiLink and TillerLink have been specifically developed to solve real-world material handling challenges.
Patented technology
Both MultiLink and TillerLink are patented technologies, so you can be sure that the solution you're getting comes with capability no one else can replicate.
Developed in-house
From the SmartCoupling that tells each machine it's location on the load to the synchronised control that moves them as one, every element is designed and built by our own engineering team.
