JUNG Battery-Powered Machine Skates

Rolls where other fail: Over the last 10+ years, the technology behind JUNG's battery-powered skates has undergone a radical evolution, resulting in today's reliable and mature machine skate system.

Maneuverability

The skate system provides 360-degree maneuverability. It drives a load forward, backwards, sideways and can rotate the load.

Key Advantages:

• Battery-powered machine skates pull, transport, and maneuver loads easily at full load capacity. Skates possess safety capacity (load bearing and pulling capacity) above rated capacity.
• Robot Skates run continuously under full load for hours.
• The battery recharges quickly.
• The speed can be increased and decreased seamlessly, without jerking, from zero to full speed under full load.
• The wireless remote control allows for safe operation from a distance.
• One remote controls all powered skates. 
• Full control: Forward/reverse/stop, speed, left/right, spin 360 degrees.
• Motors lock automatically at standstill to prevent skate from rolling away.
• Made in Germany. Manufactured by JUNG.
• US based Sales and Lifetime Technical Support

The Difference:

For over 50+ years JUNG skates, dollies and jacks have been incrementally improved and fine-tuned. Many companies have copied the same look but have been unsuccessful trying to copy the same performance and reliability.

JUNG battery-powered machine skates are Made in Germany and offer the highest reliability, ease of use and functionality, employing superior technology, engineering, and manufacturing quality. Our robotic equipment skates provide stable dependable support for load transport, roll & turn easily, and move loads safely even at the maximum rated capacity. These machinery skates work simply and reliably where others fail.

Toolwell provides parts and service to keep the machine skates running even after many years of wear and tear (see more below). 

Uses:

• Battery powered machine skates are ideal for moving machines, equipment, and material from point A to point B during installation, maintenance, and relocation without the need for a towing vehicle.
• Use for transporting loads on smooth concrete, asphalt, or steel plates.

Features:

• 4-point load moving systems. Alert: If operated on uneven ground, load will rock, one skates will lose contact with the load and drive out. Operate on level floors only.

Manufacturer:

• Manufactured by JUNG
• Made in Germany
• For 50+ years

Wheels:

• Patented JUWAthan wheels provide traction for propulsion.
• Wheels will not damage floors.
• Fewer large diameter wheels - compared to using a greater number of small wheels - maintains functionality with larger loads.
• Wheel material has extremely long life and extremely low failure rating.
• Reliable under toughest working conditions.

Skate Sizes:

• Wheel size and overall skate height increases with increased load bearing capacity.
• This assures consistently low rolling resistance and reduces the risk of point-loading wheels.
• Larger wheels can bridge larger obstacles and can handle rougher floor conditions.

Battery

• Lithium-Ion 48 VDC
• With 110V charger. Battery charges to 100% in 3 - 6 hours depending on the model.
• ALERT: All lithium ion batteries must be charged periodically when not in use for extended periods (~every 3-4 months). If battery is left to drain below the minimum level, battery cannot be recharged and requires costly replacement.
• Hybernation mode activates after 1 hour of inactivity to prevent battery drainage.

Construction:

• Materials, including the steel and the wheel materials, are specifically tested and manufactured to gain the highest performance from these skates. We do not use untested garden-variety materials.
• Factory is ISO certified and uses state-of-the-art production tools including welding robots to assure each product meets consistent quality.
• Each skate is outfitted with an anti-slip load pad.

Included: 

• The set comes with four battery-powered skates ("EP-model")
• One remote control
• One charger for the battery packs
• One charger for the remote control.  

Radio Frequencies (special considerations for security sensitive sites)

• The remote control communicates via radio frequency. 

Quality Level

• Made in Germany
• All battery-powered machine skates have significant safety capacity above the rated load bearing capacity so all products can be used at the maximum rated capacity.
• All new products undergo long testing periods in the lab and in the field before release to public.
• All skates are tagged with a serial number and any defects are traced.
• All electrical and air-powered products come with a 1-Year manufacturer’s warranty.

Parts & Serviceability:

• Toolwell provides lifetime technical and parts support.
• The battery-powered machine skates contain mechanical, electrical, software and battery components. All components are modular, including the circuit boards, for ease of replacement. Mechanical components such as the wheels can be replaced by the end user. Video instructions are available. Toolwell offers repair service on any electrical and software components. The battery, remote and chargers can simply be replaced. This provides the customer with piece of mind when considering the long-term investment costs.
• Toolwell provides support beyond just sales and maintenance. We frequently advise customers on load moving applications many years after products have been purchased.
• Engineering level support available.
