| Herkules cart positioners are designed and built around your existing cart inventory or around Herkules manufactured carts to meet your exact needs.
Fork-free alternative --- Cart positioners can increase safety, reduce energy and labor costs by minimizing the need for fork trucks. Combine Herkules lifts with rotates, tilts or any other desired material handling system to create a safer, less costly work environment. The Herkules Scissor Lift Tables low profile accommodates low clearance carts, providing a wider range of ergonomically correct worker heights. |

History of Forklift truck free: The modern Forklift trucks / high-lows have been used since the 1920s. They have become a necessary tool used by many industries such as manufacturing, construction, trucking and warehousing. By the early 1980s manufacturing started to realize the benefits of Just-in-time (JIT) as an inventory strategy and process control. By the mid 1990s industry had created a new theory that if Forklift trucks were used only in places where they were needed the most, such as loading docks then carts could be used in other locations of the facility. When this theory is applied correctly it advances the principles of Just-in-time (JIT) and facilities can recognize a high rate of Return On Investment (ROI) due to the following: 1. Inventory on site is reduced
2. The number of operators delivering material is reduced 3. Forklift truck capital expenses are less 4. Forklift truck maintenance expenses are less 5. Injuries related Forklift truck accidents are reduced The Forklift Free theory is a less expensive means of attaining similar benefits to Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs) systems. The Forklift Free theory has its place today among other growing trends that save time and money. |
Justification for Tugger and Carts: Forklift Process Tugger and Carts Process Pick from shipping and place at work station Milk-Run pick up empty and drop off full |
![]() |
| The Forklift Process shown above requires a total of 8 trips by means of picking full dunnage from shipping and receiving and placing it at the work station with the return trip picking empty dunnage from the work station and placing it at shipping and receiving. The costs for this process can be high when considering the alternative. Some costs to consider are as follows; labor hour costs, equipment run hour costs, costs associated with a high chance of injury due to Forklift truck traffic and the costs associated with product sitting idle at the shipping dock rather than at the assembly line where it is needed. | The Tugger and Cart Process shown above reduces the number of trips needed to a total of 1. The process utilizes an old practice commonly referred to as the Milk-run. This process is commonplace in the modern airport for transporting passenger luggage to and from the airplanes and terminals. Imagine an operator at the airport traveling back and forth from the terminal to airplane carrying only 1 piece of luggage similar to the Forklift Process described. Savings can easily be recognized when making the comparison to the Tugger and Cart Process. |
