ServoTrack
The powered transport system for straight routes
Powered transport system: Highly efficient connection of stations
The powered transport cart for manual or fully automated processes is optimized for straight routes. ServoTrack is ideal for efficient material transport between two stations. This transport system is recommended for loads > 5 t and several carts.
- lexible chassis design
- integration of additional powered functions: roller conveyors, rotating functions, reversing functions
- applications: linear sections or supply systems
- pedestrian-propelled or fully automatic transport
- high-precision loading of cells/stations
The top benefits
100 % Flexible
Flexible chassis design
100 % Modular
Integration of drive functions
100 % Scalable
Pedestrian or fully automatic transport
Highly precise loading
The transport cart is ideal for highly precise and reliable transport of products with a weight of up to 200 t. The powered transport cart is ideal for linear routes, supply systems or highly precise loading of cells and stations. The chassis design is adaptable to the individual requirements. ServoTrack carts permit flexible integration of additional powered functions: Roller conveyors, rotating and reversing functions.
Flexible control options
ServoTrack is available with different control concepts based on the application scenario. For instance, manual control is possible with a mobile manual control element or a control panel installed on the transport cart. In addition to partially automatic control, a fully automatic variant is also available. In this option, the higher-level control system or other systems can transmit the movement commands to the vehicle via cable or WIFI. The ServoTrack carts are equipped with state-of-the-art safety technology.

System properties
The cart can be controlled directly on the cart itself, via operating columns or through external release signals within a control system. Each vehicle comes standard with a switch cabinet. When a cable drum and energy chain is used, the control system may be external. In this version, the control system may even be omitted completely. In this case the vehicle is “wired to the terminal box” and the controls are completely customer-provided.
An antenna on the cart and transponders installed in the floor are used for navigation. This technology permits reliable detection and precise positioning accuracy at all times, irrespective of the ambient conditions.
The ServoTrack vehicles are equipped with drive cassettes. By default, these are driven via Cardan shafts by a gear motor. This robust drive section ensures optimized availability in practically all environments.
By default, the carriage uses WLAN for communication. If the control unit is external, direct wiring is also possible.
