This paper is a research report on a platform trolley with six different tasks that were solved.
The Platform Trolley is equipment used to move heavy loads from one place to another. It helps reduce the human burden in their daily lives and activities. This device is commonly used by a large number of industries to transport physical products. Trolley is often used by those who organize and stock merchandise in retail stores restock. When used properly, trolley can protect people from having back injuries and other health problems that can result from lifting and carrying heavy loads. This platform trolley is intended for transporting of goods with a maximum nominal load of 250-300kg.
