The Dragon Machinery TG500 is a heavy-duty tow tractor — sometimes called a tugger or industrial tug — designed to tow and haul large-tonnage loads in demanding environments such as warehouses and logistics facilities. Dragon Machinery is a specialist manufacturer of industrial material-handling equipment, and the TG500 represents the heavy end of their electric towing range, built around a seated-operator configuration and rear-wheel drive with front-wheel steering.
Power comes from a 23.0 kW DC electric drive motor fed by an 80-volt, 1,000 Ah battery, giving the machine a substantial energy reserve suited to extended shift work. The rated tow capacity is 50,000 kg — placing this firmly in the heavy-industrial category — with a maximum travel speed of 6 km/h under full load and 3 km/h with no load. Gradeability is rated at 6%, meaning the tractor can manage moderate inclines even when fully loaded.
The drivetrain features a large transmission ratio specifically engineered to deliver high output torque at the drawbar, which is essential when breaking away or moving very heavy trains of trolleys or trailers. Steering is fully hydraulic, and the braking system combines a hydraulic service brake — using a wet brake arrangement for durability and consistent performance — with a mechanical parking brake. Solid rubber tyres are fitted front and rear, with 7.5-16 tyres on the front axle and 7.5-20 on the rear.
In terms of dimensions, the machine measures 4,020 mm in overall length and 2,480 mm in overall width, with a wheelbase of 2,350 mm. Front and rear wheel treads are 1,586 mm and 1,796 mm respectively. The minimum turning radius is 4,016 mm, which should be factored into aisle and manoeuvring-space planning. This 2020 example is offered used, located in China, and is priced at €91,400.
