Industrial tuggers are also often referred to as electric tuggers and are used for heavy load or heavy use applications. There are a number of different types and models of tuggers and each has different capacities available to suit the diverse needs of the people who use them.

Most often used in industrial applications and environments, industrial tuggers can move anything on wheels, including:

1.Tug carts

2.Trolleys

3.Containers

Heavy-duty electric tuggers are often used for large trailer towing or aircraft towing. These electric tuggers are also often used to move trucks, buses, trailers or airplanes through production lines.

Three common types of tuggers include:

1.Aircraft tuggers

2.Truck tuggers

3.Trailer towers

Electric tuggers are equipped with forward, reverse and an automatic safety brake. If required, a hydraulic lift can be added. Since the types of uses for tuggers vary greatly, they come in a variety of models so that you can ensure you are choosing the right machine for the right job. Choosing the right tugger will help you maximize productivity by saving on the cost of moving heavy, stationary objects while also avoiding disruptions to your overall manufacturing process.

An electronic tugger allows a single operator to move heavy or awkward loads safely and efficiently. Their ergonomic design helps to eliminate muscle, joint and back injuries while helping to increase the operators overall output.

Industrial tuggers are not just efficient – they also enhance the safety of your workers, which is always your most important consideration. There are numerous benefits to employers who provide their employees with the safest workplace and working conditions possible. Employee safety reduces costs related to injuries, increases productivity and boosts employee morale. The average cost of a lost-time injury claim in Ontario through WSIB in 2007 was $98 000. With these astronomical injury costs you just cant afford to have your employees working with hazardous, unsafe equipment.
