Manufacturing Industry - Electric Cart Pusher and Puller

In most manufacturing or distribution environments, the material handling process is either solved by palletizing product, parts, and equipment, or with racks, carts, and casters. Our CartCaddy material handling carts come in many different shapes and sizes to handle these wheeled applications. The amount of force necessary to maneuver the load, as well as how we attach to it, will determine the CartCaddy solution necessary to solve it.

If your cart, rack, or equipment has casters that turn when the load turns, our CartCaddy electric carts with a 5th wheel style turning method is needed:
