In any industry, regardless of its size or function, efficient production is highly dependent on perfectly coordinated processes and timely supply of materials and products. This is where material flow, both inbound and outbound, plays a critical role in driving efficiency and profitability. The Modular Docking Train is a custom-made solution designed to cater to specific customer requirements, ensuring just-in-time delivery of materials, whether they are internally or externally sourced within the customer’s site.

The modular docking train is highly versatile and can be towed using a pedestrian mover or a ride-on tow tractor. With its modular design, units can be interchanged to suit the load. The overall efficiency of the modular docking train is derived from its flexibility in material flow, increased volumes per operative, safety for personnel, and condition of materials at the point of use. Whether the products are palletized, in tote boxes, or individually packed, the system can be designed to meet the customer’s unique requirements.

With its flexibility, robustness, and excellent turning circles and manoeuvrability, the modular docking train can be a valuable addition to any workplace.

CHASSIS

The durable chassis design of the docking system enables the load locking pins to be automatically operated with a secondary locking mechanism, ensuring added security and reliability.

STEERING

The use of multiple units in a train system allows for near-perfect tracking, which results in exceptional manoeuvrability and tight turning.

The only limiting factor is the working environment, which may restrict the number of units that can be used in the train system.

WHEELS & TYRES

Castor Wheel and Tyre Selection

The selection of castor wheels and train systems depends on the specific working environment and usage, taking into consideration various factors such as:

  • Capacity
  • Speed
  • Rolling resistance
  • Ground conditions
  • Ride quality
  • Non marking
  • economics
  • Load height / centre of gravity
  • Noise reduction

All above available as anti static or electrically conductive if required.
