Tugtrucks - PTT3
Push / Pull unit for Trailers

Hedin Tugtruck for heavy loads. With a hydraulically operated quick coupling. Is built in such a way that it lifts up at the front end  the non motorized trailers to be moved. By this way the load will be distrubuted to the load wheels on the trailer and onto the the drive and steering wheel of the  PTT3 tug. This makes a flexible 3 wheeler.
The Hedin Pedestrian Tug is the strongest in market highest torque and wheel load and should not be mixed up with other brands of similar equipment. 

Push- / Pull Units PTT3 mainly are used for indoor moving of a lot of heavy loads by one or only a few carts.
The goods to be transported are available for transport either on so called load trailers or they have an own non-driven chassis with load wheels, like for example mobile machines do have.
The Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 is equipped with a mechanical quick coupling and with a hydraulic lifting unit. By means of this hydraulic lifting unit it lifts up the corresponding load trailer or non-driven chassis at its front end. This combination of non-driven load trailer / non-driven chassis with the Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 creates a stable so called 3-wheeler. In this combination the Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 builds the steerable driven axel.
The Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 itself with its lifting unit has a lifting power for up to 3.000 kg. In combination with the non-driven load trailer / non-driven chassis and their type of construction as well as depending on the load distribution this makes a total load capacity of up to 15 - 30 tons.
The Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 also is available without hydraulics and lifting unit, with a fix, permanent connection to the trailer by pivot bearing.
For customers, who intend to install their own coupling between Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 and the trailer, the Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 also is available without hydraulics and without pivot bearing.

At places where one or a few Push- / Pull Units PTT3 have the task to manoeuvre or to move a lot of different heavy load trailers / machine chassis with load wheels, it is very important that coupling / uncoupling of the trailers / chassis can be done quickly.
By this reason the Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 is available with a very stable mechanical quick coupling, which is operated by the hydraulic cylinder of the Push- / Pull Unit PTT3.
When coupling the Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 to the load trailers, in the moment of using the lifting cylinder of the PTT3 first locks the mechanical coupling. After that the trailer is lifted up at his front end. This makes a very safe and quick connection between the Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 and the heavy load trailer and thereby creates a 3-wheeled heavy load transport cart with high pulling force and extreme manoeuvrability. For steering of this cart-combination a servo-steering is not needed.
. For maximum transport weights of more than 20 tons we do recommend the use of the optionally available reinforced version of the quick coupling.
Do you regard the extreme flexibility of an inhouse transportation system, consisting of Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 with hydraulically operated quick coupling and customer-specific heavy load trailer, also for your company as logistically advantageous? Then please do contact us. We would like to consult you.

Pivot Bearing for fix connected Heavy Load Trailers

At applications, at which single customer's non-driven heavy load trailers need to be pushed / pulled always by the same Push- / Pull Unit PTT3, it is recommended to connect the Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 to the trailer permanently by means of a pivot bearing. As this type of connection is extremely able to work under pressure, it is recommended specially for bigger load weights of more than 20 tons.

This combination of customer's heavy load trailer (upon request it also can be produced by Hedin Lagan AB) and the Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 creates a 3-wheeled transport cart, similar to the universal transport cart UTW type 2 or the pallet truck PTW type 2. The Push- / Pull Unit PTT3 is an all purpose transportation device which, basing on its multiple possibilities of combinations can serve a wide field of applications.
