Automotive & commercial vehicles
Shifting efficiency up a gear
Automotive and commercial vehicle OEMs depend on electric tugs to maximise efficiency in the movement of body-in-whites, press tools, parts and kitting trolleys. Eliminating manual handling and reducing the dependency on forklift trucks in internal processes enables automotive manufacturers to unlock greater efficiency and create leaner production lines.
Automotive supply chain
Optimising automotive supply chain efficiency
Our innovative material handling equipment is trusted across the automotive supply chain to reduce bottlenecks and streamline processes – ensuring production keeps moving. Relied on by leading automotive tier 1 and tier 2 suppliers, electric tow tugs deliver the safe, efficient movement of parts, components and equipment. Enabling the just-in-time movement of loads, electric tugs help you maintain credibility and commitment to your automotive manufacturing customers.
Heavy Plant
Maximum flexibility to meet demand and reduce costs
Increased demand, supply chain pressures and large, cumbersome loads continue to put pressure on heavy plant machinery manufacturers. To create flexible, scalable processes that reduce downtime and maximise production output, heavy plant manufacturers choose electric tugs – compact machines that deliver the controlled movement of 30,000kg loads and beyond.
Engine, pump and generator
Heavy-duty solutions for powerful movements
Within the manufacture of engine, pump and generators, rapid evolution across the industry is powering the focus on production efficiency and agility, with manufacturers looking to reduce wasted time and create leaner processes. Leading manufacturers trust MasterMover electric tugs to create flexible production processes and deliver the controlled movement of heavy-wheeled loads in confined spaces.
Trailer manufacturing
Reducing downtime in trailer movement
For trailer manufacturers, improving workflows and streamlining processes is key. However, many manufacturers still rely on a combination of shunters, forklift trucks and lorry cabs to transfer completed trailers off the line. Our electric Trailer Moving System makes light work of unladen trailers weighing up to 20,000kg with zero emissions. Perfectly suited for tight production areas and to deliver maximum visibility and smooth, controlled movement.
Tyre manufacturing
Eliminating manual handling to accelerate efficiency
Global tyre manufacturing facilities trust MasterMover electric tugs to eliminate manual handling and boost production efficiency. Whether it’s in the movement of cassette trolleys, bead racks or even tread trolleys, electric tugs enable a single operator to effortlessly move heavy-wheeled loads, maximising safety and empowering operators to focus on greater value-adding tasks.
