Push-pull trolley

Push-pull trolley

(OP)

Dear all,
I would like to know, is there any drive mechanism in this type of trolley? I mean a drive mechanism for moving trolley with chain hoist along a runway.

Thank you in advance.

RE: Push-pull trolley

I have been at a plant where in a portion of the track of a hand pushed trolley system was powered. The trolley were equipped with a drive bar which protruded above the rail and in the portion of the powered section engaged a powered chain driven section positioned above the non-powered section. The system was used for pushing tractor frames through a gas fired paint drying oven. The system was custom built to our needs.

My other suggestion would be to look at powered and free monorail conveyor system. There several suppliers which can supply such as system.
