Things to consider
With over 25 years of crafting systems to mobilize the heaviest cable reels and drums, we understand that every application is different. Here's some things to consider when choosing a cable reel handling system:
Weight capacity: how heavy are the cables and could this increase in the future?
System needs: do you need a system to lift cable reels, spool them, or simply push them?
Safety: what systems are needed to ensure a safe operation?
Operation: are you looking for pedestrian-operated solution, or would a remote control solution be more suitable?
Our expert team will work with you to fully assess your application, ensuring any solution is 100% suited to your requirements.

Your Questions, Answered - FAQs
Is an operator license or training required?
No, unlike lifting equipment such as forklift trucks and cranes, an electric tugger does not require a license to operate. A license-free operation reduces downtime and maximizes operational efficiency, reducing wasted time waiting for a licensed driver.
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.
