Tractors
Tractors
Pneumatic, Electric and Servo Tractors are designed primarily to help an operator push, pull, lift and position a load that is suspended from a trolley on an overhead rail system. They accurately locate and move loads in the “X” and “Y” directions with precision and reliability while significantly reducing the push pull forces as well as the energy to sustain movements.
Air Tractors
Air Tractors provide mobility by towing bridges, fixtures and heavier loads. They are typically used to assist an operator to push, pull or position loads. These tractors are designed to be used in conjunction with Knight workstation crane systems. The TRA2500 and TRA5500 are equipped with lube-free motors that require less maintenance and will have a longer expected service life. These motors are available on the TRA2500 and TRA5500 Series Air Tractors only. The TRA1500 and TRA1501 Mini Air Tractor provides mobility by towing bridges, fixtures and loads. These Mini Tractors are typically used to assist an operator to push, pull or position loads.
Electric Tractors
KET3000 Electric Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) Tractors are equipped with Knight’s proven tractor mechanics using a worm gear reducer that is reliable and maintenance-free. They provide a way to easily tow fixtures, bridges, and heavy loads in manufacturing environments, giving the operator complete control of positioning.
Servo Tractors
Servo Tractors are designed to accurately locate, push, tow, lift and position loads from an overhead rail system. Tractors significantly reduce the push/pull forces as well as the energy to sustain movements.
