Topper Industrial (www.topperindustrial.com) is a premier manufacturer of custom material handling carts and equipment. Known for engineering ergonomic and safety-focused designs, Topper Industrial specializes in optimizing material flow and workplace efficiency through thoughtfully designed cart delivery systems.
What is Cart Delivery?
Cart delivery refers to the movement of materials across a facility using industrial push carts or tugger carts. This method improves workflow by offering two key approaches:
- Work-from-cart systems, where materials remain in the cart and are accessed directly at the worksite.
- Transfer-cart systems, which deliver materials to a station and transfer them using rollers for seamless unloading.
Custom-Engineered Carts for Every Application
Topper Industrial designs and builds custom carts for specific operational needs. The main cart categories include:
Static Carts
Durable push or tugger carts featuring either:
- 2 rigid wheels and 2 swivel wheels, or
- 4 outer swivel wheels with 2 rigid center wheels.
These carts offer excellent tracking and improved push/pull forces. Ideal for both manual movement and tugger systems.
Tilt Carts
Equipped with a patented Hydraulic Speed Dampening Cylinder, these carts tilt safely and slowly to a predefined angle—commonly 30°, 45°, or 60°, but customizable to virtually any tilt. Available in:
- Standard forward tilt
- Side tilt configurations for specialized applications
Designed for controlled material presentation as contents move from full to empty, Tilt Carts support both push and tugger operations.
Rotate Carts
These carts feature a 360° rotating top mounted on a tilt base. Operators can access parts from any side by releasing a foot-actuated detent. The system automatically locks at 90° or 180° intervals for safety.
A heavy-duty, sealed precision slew bearing ensures smooth, maintenance-free rotation, minimizing operator strain from reaching or lifting.
Quad Steer Carts
Also known as Tracking Carts or Delivery Carts, Quad Steer Carts offer full-wheel steering for tight maneuverability. Designed for tugger, AGV (Automated Guided Vehicle), or VGV (Vision Guided Vehicle) use, they stay connected in train configurations without needing to uncouple during pickup or drop-off.
Mother Daughter Carts
This flexible system includes a large Mother Cart that houses and transports multiple Daughter Carts, which can vary in type—e.g., static, tilt, or rotation carts. Daughter Carts lock securely into the Mother Cart and move as a single unit, offering modularity and efficiency in delivery operations. Also known as Corral Carts, these are ideal for tugger systems.
Whether your operation demands a simple push cart or an integrated tugger cart system, Topper Industrial delivers custom-engineered solutions to streamline material handling and boost workplace safety and productivity.
