Summary

The Minitrucks Standard Robot is a compact, radio-controlled material handling cart available in electric and combustion variants, built on Minitrucks Robotics' hydraulic drive platform with two steerable axles. It carries, tows, and pushes loads from 500 kg to 2,500 kg across paved, unpaved, and underground surfaces, with the ECM80 model confirmed transporting 200 kg cast iron pipes through a confined tunnel at 55 cm chassis width. The company spun off from the Hydrosystem group in December 2023, closed a EUR 1.5M seed round in January 2024, and has two confirmed production deployments in France.

Horizontal Transport Receiving & Staging Last-Mile Delivery

How it works on your site

Horizontal Transport

The robot operates as a carrier, tractor, or pusher via radio remote control, with one operator driving the unit through passages as narrow as 55 cm. Two steerable axles allow near-zero turning radius in confined corridors. The crew loads and unloads materials; the robot replaces manual wheelbarrow runs on the horizontal legs.
