Modular Material Handling Carts for Lean Manufacturing
Custom carts designed to move materials seamlessly around your production floor.
Modular frame construction — no welding or painting required
Configurable for any sized bins, totes, and components
Supports line-side material delivery and assembly operations
Durable, industrial-grade design for manufacturing use
Optimized for Line-Side Material Flow
Material handling carts play a crucial role in improving workplace efficiency and safety by facilitating the transport and organization of heavy or bulk materials. Utilizing carts in your production facility greatly reduces waste in motion and inventory, and enables quick delivery of goods to and from production cells.
Promote safety and efficiency throughout your facility by eliminating the risks of manual lifting and dangerous forklift traffic, integrating lightweight material handling carts, trolleys, and when feasible, small, motorized trains to reduce distance traveled and time spent moving materials. Our AluPro options offer an especially high strength-to-weight ratio, giving you lightweight durability for no hassle, no worry material transport.
Carts by IPS Material Handling are designed to improve efficiency, ergonomics, and safety on the production floor. Each cart is engineered to your specifications to deliver parts and materials directly to the point of use, reducing operator movement and supporting lean manufacturing principles.
Our carts are built from durable modular frames and connectors, making them easy to assemble, adjust, and reconfigure as production needs change.
Purpose-Built for Manufacturing Environments
Unlike generic utility carts or warehouse trolleys, IPS modular push carts are designed specifically for line-side use, enabling smooth delivery of parts and materials where they are needed most.
Common applications include:
Assembly cell material delivery
Kitting and sub-assembly support
Kanban and pull-based replenishment
Custom configurations for unique production needs
Modular and Configurable
Our push carts follow widely adopted modular design principles, allowing layouts to be customized, expanded, or reconfigured to suit your workflow.
Adjustable shelves and trays for bins and totes
Single or multi-tier configurations
Caster options to suit your specific needs
Optional drawers, dividers, or tool-holding accessories

From Concept to Delivery. How it works:
1. Tell us about your project
Share your layout, sketch, or bill of materials and our project manager will work with you to gather the relevant information to get started including your carts required dimensions, elevations and constraints.
2. Design
With your collaboration, our engineers will design or validate a custom cart configuration to suit your exact application and specifications. 3D CAD drawings and renderings will be submitted for your approval.
3. Delivery and Installation
Our team will will deliver your cart system fully assembled and turn key. In most cases your cart system arrives ready to be implemented on your production floor. In some cases, we can deliver it in kitted form for you to assemble on site.
Fully modular, easy to assemble, and adaptable carts to changing production needs.
