Load train Factory Train FT500

Compact, track accuracy and flexible – these are the characteristics that best describe the new Factory Train FT500. With a very compact construction, combined with very good manoeuvrability, and extremely straight travel over the entire train, the FT500 is well suited for indoor material transport.

The FT500 can be equipped with either PU (bandage) or SE tyres – depending on the customer's flooring type and the areas in which the load train will be used. It can also be used outdoors.

The FT500 is available in four standard chassis sizes with a load capacity of 800 to 2,000 kg. Many different systems are available to the customer as load carriers that can be adjusted individually to customer requirements.
