Technology & Equipment – Tugger train Factory Train for safe and efficient intralogistics

With innovative and sophisticated technology, the Factory Train tugger train offers you future-proof and cost-efficient intralogistics. Driving and operating the tugger train is ergonomically designed for the employee. Many safety functions are already integrated in the basic equipment. And service and maintenance costs are minimised thanks to the durable design with an operating hours counter and maintenance instructions as well as the option of remote diagnostics.

Electric steering

Electronic steering / track stability

Electronically controlled steering for maximum directional stability of the entire load train ("Virtual Track": driving as on rails).

Speed reduction

Speed reduction

Automatic speed reduction in cornering until the complete train is in straight ahead direction. No "whiplash effect".

Diagonal drive

Diagonal drive

Full turn of all steering axles in the same direction allows a diagonal drive of the load train ("Crabbing") for one easy lane change. No getting stuck. Loading/unloading in narrow lanes.

Individually controllable lifting functions

Individually controllable lifting functions

Time- and energy-efficient operation thanks to individually controllable lifting functions centrally on the tractor or directly on the modules. Time- and energy-efficient operation.

Suspension

Suspension / Low-noise

Suspension and backlash free connection provide high protection for the goods from bumps and blows and allow a quiet operation.

CAN-Bus control

CAN-Bus control

Automatic identification of the load carriers connected to the load train. Constant communication and monitoring of all systems in the load train.

Lowering clearance and tow tractor locking

Lowering clearance and tow tractor locking

Safe loading / unloading.  Lowering of load  carriers only possible when the tow tractor handbrake has been applied. Tow tractor automatically stopped from moving off when load carriers in the lowered position.

Maintenance and Service

Maintenance and Service

Operating hours counter and maintenance lamp with specified service intervals provide a long operating time of the load train.

Totally oil-free system

Electrical operation / oil-free overall system

Pure electrical operation and completely oil-free system ensure high efficiency, energy efficiency and avoid pollution caused by oil loss (leaks).

Lifting gear

Lifting gear

Electric stepless lifting gear. Consistent lifting characteristics with the same lifting and lowering speeds (no hydraulics).

Waterproofness

Waterproofness

Cable harness with waterproof plugs (IP64 - IP68).

Outdoor capability

Outdoor capability

Fatigue strength of the frame construction thanks to the 3-point system on the FT500 and swing axles and swivelling bearings on the FT800. Terrain adaptable. Long service life and long service life.

Weather Protection System

Weather protection system (option)

Wind and rain-proof weather protection; horizontal struts in the tarpaulin; labyrinth guide; pointed aluminium roof; quick and easy operation. No sagging of the tarpaulin. Absolutely waterproof. Ergonomic.

Electronic brake system

Electronic brake system (option)

Safe braking and smooth deceleration of the entire load train through an electronic single-wheel brake system with ABS function.

Report from TÜV SÜD

Expertise for §70 StVZO (option)

The certificate certifies the roadworthiness and is a basic requirement for an exemption authorisation in accordance with §70 StVZO for road use with the Factory Train tugger train (e.g. road crossing or short distances on public roads).

Lighting (option)

Lighting (option)

Comprehensive lighting system with rear, brake, indicator and rotating beacon as well as clearance lights on the goods carrier and reflectors or reflector strips.

Passage barrier tapes (option)

Passage barrier tapes (option)

Retractable barrier tapes between the goods carriers provide additional safety.

Special colours (option)

Special colours (option)

Special painting of the module cladding (running gear) as well as a different colour tarpaulin and printing of the weather protection tarpaulin.
