What are Walkie Tuggers?
Walkie tuggers are a type of tugger that are pedestrian operated. An industrial walkie tugger is designed to improve safety and efficiency when moving carts.
Sometimes known as 'walk behind tuggers', 'cart movers' or 'pedestrian power movers', they allow a single operator to move heavy loads like carts and equipment.
Walkie tuggers are compact machines designed to effortlessly move heavy loads and types of industrial carts over short to medium distances.
Cart movers and tuggers eliminate manual handling and offer a safer alternative to traditional material handling equipment. Unlike forklifts or other larger material handling equipment, walkie tuggers are operated by a single person who guides the machine while it pulls or pushes the load. This design not only enhances maneuverability but also significantly reduces the risk of accidents in crowded work environments.
