When NASA was looking to build a cart to move equipment used in the servicing of their jet engines, it became apparent that the push/pull forces necessary to move the 2,000 pound cart raised the potential for employees to sustain injuries during transport. The carts also needed to be designed to allow them to mount their gear and equipment on top.

A large medical equipment manufacturer needed to find a motorized solution for one of their bariatric beds. Working with their engineering, quality, and marketing teams, we developed and manufactured a motorized solution that carried their corporate brand while remaining compliant with ISO 13485 and 21 CFR 820 quality standards.

Custom motorized platform cart was designed to safely and securely hold a nuclear containment system and move up to 4,000 pound loads.

An international window and door manufacturer needed a motorized solution that could load, unload, and transport 16 foot long pieces of material between a storage area and work cell. The solution that was designed for them incorporated a powered drive system and hydraulic lift that was driven off the on-board rechargeable batteries.

Custom motorized platform cart was designed to safely and securely hold a nuclear containment system and move up to 4,000 pound loads.

Designed for a customer in the Automotive Industry, this custom transfer cart was designed to move up to 10,000 pound loads with wireless control.

A large international industrial client needed to move a 3,500 pound payload through tight spaces while minimizing excessive push/pull forces that cause employee injuries. Working with the client, we designed a custom solution that integrated their automation system on top of the platform and housed the batteries & electronics in an IP66 enclosure.

This is a three part series that provides answers to some relevant questions regarding MSD injuries including: What are MSD injuries? What do they cost you as an employer. How can they be prevented?

A Fortune 500 company in the petrochemical industry needed to move 8,000 pounds of 40 foot pipe through their plant and over inclines. Working with the client a custom cart was designed that included an onboard scale and wireless control.

Working with the cart designer, our engineers came up with a motorized solution that would allow the kiosks to be moved quickly and effortlessly throughout the airport environment, even on inclines. The final cart design provided all of the necessary product display space and enough battery capacity to keep the cart in service throughout the day.

This paper discusses the benefits of adding a powered drive system to an existing manual cart to eliminate excessive push/pull forces. Several examples are shown from a variety of industries.

One of our distributors ran into a problem when looking into ergonomic, motorized platform carts for a manufacturing client. The client needed to be able to move very long and heavy pieces of steel, sometimes weighting up to 2 tons. The length of the pieces made solutions such as a forklift non-viable.

Working with an automobile manufacturer, we developed a customized, retractable drive system that allowed their trailers to be towed.
