Paper Roll Handling Equipment

Your Questions, Answered - FAQs

How do electric tugs move rolls of paper? 

We offer a range of electric tugs, including pedestrian-operated pushers. Alongside our range of electric tugs, we know that every load is different, which means how we connect to loads need to be flexible.

Purpose-built for the safe movement of paper rolls, our AllTerrain range of electric pushers are available with a roll pushing coupling – enabling the easy, safe movement of heavy rolls. 

Is an operator license or training required? 

No, unlike lifting equipment such as forklift trucks and cranes, an electric tug does not require a license to operate. A license-free operation reduces downtime and maximises operational efficiency, reducing wasted time waiting for a licensed driver.    

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

How are electric tugs powered?  

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

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

How do electric tugs and electric tows connect?     

A range of coupling options are available across the range that maximise performance, security and safety.

Custom coupling solutions can also be designed for unique applications.
