Industrial logistics environments are fast-paced, unpredictable, and physically demanding. Whether operating in a warehouse, hospital, or distribution terminal, the Zallys JACK electric tow tractor is purpose-built to meet the rigors of real-world use—day in, day out.

Here’s how the JACK is engineered to deliver dependable performance in the field:

Powder-Coated Steel Frame for Long-Lasting Durability

The JACK’s frame is constructed from high-grade steel and finished with a durable powder-coated surface, making it resistant to corrosion, scratches, and daily wear. This protective coating allows the machine to withstand harsh working conditions, including exposure to dust, temperature changes, and moisture—ideal for both indoor and outdoor industrial applications.

• Benefit: Invest in equipment that lasts longer and requires less maintenance, even in rugged environments.

Compact and Ergonomic Design for Tight Spaces

The JACK combines a small turning radius with ergonomic proportions, allowing operators to maneuver it effortlessly through narrow aisles, crowded production lines, elevators, or loading zones. This compact footprint is a major advantage in space-restricted facilities where every centimeter counts.

• Why it matters: Smooth movement in tight spaces means fewer delays, safer transport, and better overall space utilization.

Quick-Change Battery System for Multi-Shift Efficiency

Downtime during battery charging can severely impact productivity. The JACK is equipped with a removable battery system, available in gel or lithium-ion variants, enabling quick battery swaps between shifts. Lithium batteries also charge faster and last longer, making them ideal for operations requiring 24/7 availability.

• Key advantage: Keep operations running with minimal disruption—even during demanding, round-the-clock schedules.

Electromagnetic Brakes and Intuitive Steering for Safety and Control

To ensure safe operation, especially in high-traffic or incline-prone areas, the JACK is fitted with an electromagnetic braking system that automatically engages when the tiller is released or an emergency stop is triggered. Combined with precise steering controls, it offers both operator confidence and safety compliance, making it suitable for OH&S-sensitive environments.

• Added value: Reduce risk of accidents and operator fatigue while improving control in critical movement zones.

JACK is the result of Zallys’ mission to build smarter, safer, and more efficient transport solutions—ready for the demands of modern logistics.
