Excellence in Material Handling TUGGER TRAIN SYSTEMS State-of-the-art material supply for lean production from your intralogistics experts

TUGGER TRAINS FOR LEAN PRODUCTION WHAT ARE TUGGER TRAINS? Tugger trains are an internal transport solution, with which material transport within the plant is optimized. This type of transport substantially supports just-in-time as well as just-in-sequence production. The tuggers move the trolley arrangements through the plant, which can be loaded individually in accordance with internal requirements. For example, materials are efficiently transported to or from the metal-cutting machines or assembly stands and replace the supply by forklift trucks. LEAN PRODUCTION Within the scope of lean...

BENEFITS MINIMIZATION OF EMPT Y RUNS DIFFERENT MATERIALS CAN BE TRANSPORTED TOGETHER AT THE SAME TIME FASTER AND SAFER COMPARED TO TRANSPORTATION WITH FORKLIFT TRUCKS HIGH QUALIT Y THE TRAIN ACHIEVES EXCELLENT TRACKING WITH THE VIRTUAL COUPLING AND DRAWBAR SYSTEM LOW PRODUC TION COSTS SAVINGS OF FORKLIFT AND PERSONNEL COSTS CONTINUOUS OPTIMIZATION OF THROUGHPUT TIMES

LOWEST SPACE REQUIREMENT DUE TO INNOVATION STEERING SYSTEMS For the material supply, LKE provides trailer systems with which standard load carriers like Euro pallets or SLC boxes can be optimally transported. Furthermore, LKE is the point of contact for the transport of individual loads or load carriers. For all systems, in addition to safe provision, the necessary space requirement is crucial in order to work as economically as possible. Against this background, all our LKE tugger trains can be equipped with different steering systems, to provide you with a solution suited to your needs....

By lifting the centrally the middle fixed castors are different technical designs are The central brake lever is complex all-wheel Ackermann aligned fixed castors, sideway movement in both directions via the swivel castors is possible. 5

TUGGER TRAIN VS. FORKLIFT TRUCK MODERN VS. CONVENTIONAL The benefits are obvious: Several stations are supplied in one run the round trip. During the delivery, the next train will already be with the tugger train. In contrast, each station must be individually loaded in the warehouse. Following its return to the warehouse, the approached with the forklift truck. It is clear that this leads to traction engine will immediately start the next round via the LKE increased traffic and a lot more distance covered – not least resulting towing hitch. The different trailers which are compatible with...

*EXAMPLE: ASSEMBLY LINE (210 m) WITH 6 STATIONS AND 52 DELIVERIES TUGGER TRAIN (4 TRAILERS) FORKLIFT TRUCK (52 deliveries / 4 trailers) x 1 = 13 routes

LOADING AND UNLOADING ON BOTH SIDES FLEXIBLE MATERIAL SUPPLY IN PRODUCTION There are now various tugger train systems on the market, but the LKE portfolio provides another crucial advantage here: Almost all products of the system can be easily loaded or unloaded from both sides. This way, you not only avoid unnecessary distances, but can quickly and efficiently meet new requirements of your production, without changes to the tugger train. In addition to best possible tracking and respectively low space requirement, you will also save unproductive times and consequently capital. The...
