MATERIAL HANDLING EQUIPMENT

Tuggers & Trolleys for Flexible Internal Material Movement.

Not every material-handling requirement involves a pallet truck or forklift.

Components, equipment, bins, platforms and other loads often need to be moved, supported, positioned or transported between work areas using a different handling approach.

NGT offers tuggers, trolleys and supporting equipment for different internal material-movement applications.

START WITH THE MOVEMENT

What Needs to Move — and How Should It Be Handled?

Internal material movement can involve much more than transporting a standard pallet.

Some applications require a simple platform for manual transport.

Others may involve:

  • moving heavy equipment
  • transporting components between workstations
  • towing loads across longer internal routes
  • raising a load towards working height
  • supporting machinery during movement or maintenance
  • handling items that do not fit conventional pallet equipment

Different Equipment for Different Movement Requirements.

Explore the available NGT Tugger & Trolleys product categories below.

Final equipment selection should be based on the actual load, movement, route, operating environment and handling requirement.

Heavy Duty Skates

For suitable applications where heavy equipment or machinery needs to be repositioned across a controlled floor surface using dedicated load-support equipment.

Platform Hand Truck

A straightforward manual transport option for suitable cartons, components, materials and other loads that can be safely carried on a platform.

Scissor Lift Table Truck

Combines mobile load transport with elevation for suitable applications where materials also need to be raised towards a working or transfer height.

Ride-on Electric Walkie Tugger

A powered towing solution for suitable internal transport applications where loads need to move repeatedly across operational routes.

Hydraulic Jack

For suitable lifting and support requirements where a load or equipment item needs controlled elevation as part of handling, positioning or maintenance activity.

APPLICATION GUIDE

Start With What the Load Needs to Do.

↔

MOVE MATERIAL MANUALLY

For suitable loads requiring straightforward movement over short internal routes.

◆

MOVE HEAVY EQUIPMENT

Where machinery or heavy equipment needs controlled repositioning.

↟

MOVE + RAISE

Where the load needs transportation together with elevation towards a working or transfer height.

→

TOW ACROSS INTERNAL ROUTES

Where repeated load movement or towing is required over appropriate operational routes.

↑

LIFT OR SUPPORT EQUIPMENT

Where controlled lifting or support is required as part of handling or maintenance.

CHOOSING THE HANDLING METHOD

The Movement Method Changes the Equipment Requirement.

↔

PUSH / MANUAL TRANSPORT

For suitable material that can be safely transported on a manually moved platform.

→

TOW

For suitable loads that need powered towing across defined internal routes.

↟

LIFT + MOVE

For applications requiring both mobility and load elevation.

◎

SUPPORT / POSITION

For appropriate heavy-load positioning, equipment movement or lifting requirements.

The final handling method should be selected around the load, route, floor condition, movement frequency, operating space and required interaction with the material.

BEFORE YOU CHOOSE

Start With the Application Details.

LoadMovementDistanceRouteDuty

01

WHAT IS THE LOAD?

Understand its weight, dimensions, geometry and how it can safely be supported.

02

HOW DOES IT NEED TO MOVE?

Push, tow, roll, lift, position or a combination of movements.

03

HOW FAR WILL IT TRAVEL?

Short workstation movements and repeated internal transport routes may require different approaches.

04

WHAT DOES THE ROUTE LOOK LIKE?

Consider floor condition, gradients, doorways, aisle width, turning space and access.

05

HOW OFTEN WILL IT BE USED?

Frequency and operating duty can affect whether manual or powered movement should be evaluated.
