Sherpa Tug is an autonomous, electric tug that moves trolley payloads up to 1000 kg. Trolleys play a key role in material movement in most factories and many warehouses. Sherpa Tug easily integrates with existing trolleys and thus fit into workflows without any changes.
Sherpa would feel at home in the most advanced factories of the world but can also handle legacy environments with ease due to its advanced autonomy technology stack. With good ground clearance and suspension, the vehicle handles ramps, bumps and even outdoor movement with ease, adding reliability, efficiency and safety to material movement.
