Focus on the requirements of the customer 

The idea for the Clark tugger train was born after the successful completion of a customer project and the knowledge gained from it. A large automobile manufacturer in the Russian Federation required a tugger train for more efficient material supply to production, which is equally designed for the transport of Euro pallets and other pallet sizes. At the plant, large heavy engines weighing 1600 kg as well as other vendor parts were to be delivered to the production line just-in-time. Since the traffic area there is space-critical, it was desired that the trailers could be loaded from both sides. In addition, the tugger train had to be able to keep exactly to the specified lane. This requirement profile gave rise to the CTR02 double U-frame trailer. Today, the customer can transport parts of different sizes and weights to the assembly stations with a "milk-run" and thereby increase added value. 

The autonomous electric steering is maintenance-free and uses sensor information measured directly at the axle

The Clark tugger train system can be expanded as required and offers customers many advantages: In addition to an on-demand and efficient supply of the production line according to the so-called milk run principle, the operator saves logistics space with the Clark tugger train and can reduce both his inventories and his energy consumption. The risk of accidents can also be reduced due to a lower volume of traffic in the plant.

For coupling and uncoupling the trailers, in addition to the standard trailer coupling without remote release, a coupling with remote release is available. With the help of this coupling, the tractors can automatically hitch and unhitch other trailers

The way Clark has made is the history of forklift

Clark who started its business as automobile parts manufacturer in 1903 invented the world’s first forklift in 1917, which brought innovative change to the concept of distribution.  Clark set a standard of modern forklift in 1920s and has been at the forefront of every major echnological advancement in the world’s forklift industry for over 80 years.  Clark  opened its various patent to the industry, which has been freely adopted by every forklift manufacturer as an industry’s standard technology.
