Tugger Carts
A tugger cart, also known as tugger train, logistics train or material handling tugger cart system, is a system used in factories to move materials within the facility more efficiently. When it comes to efficient material handling, a “tugger” plays a crucial role. If you’re looking to enhance your material handling processes, understanding and utilizing industrial tugger trains can be a game-changer.

What is a LiftRunner Tugger Train System?
STILL LiftRunner frames are designed for use with the STILL LiftRunner tugger train system. This tugger system allows the carts to be pushed into the trailers at floor level. For traveling the trolleys are raised hydraulically or pneumatically so that only the larger wheels of the “Liftrunner” trailers touch the floor. This reduces the noise and decreases the wear and tear of the wheels of the trolleys which cannot get caught anywhere, which will, therefore, increase the service life. The trolleys are automatically locked by locking pins to prevent them from rolling sideways out of the trailer.
