Trailers
Pedestrian Operated Prime Movers
This type of mover is for the use in areas where manual pushing/pulling is happening frequently and the loads are in excess of the manual handling directive.
This unit attaches itself onto a trolley and raises its own front wheels clear of the floor therefore enabling to "become" a powered fixed platform trolley with excellent manoeuvrability. The other major benefit is that the POPM can attach itself to any trolley configured to accept the "grabber" of the POPM. Therefore a single POPM will enable many trolleys to be moved quickly and efficiently.
Capacities are currently available up to 4000N drawbar pull 12000kg capacity and as usual with Wilmat, bespoke models are available to clients specification.
