Zephir S.p.A., founded in 1969 and based in Modena (Italy), is the European leader in bimodal road‑rail shunting locomotives, used notably for rail operations in logistics centers, ports, mines, and factories.

  In 1977, the company designed the first “Locotractor,” combining rail and road travel to enable greater flexibility in logistics operations

  Today it offers the widest range of road‑rail equipment, including diesel models (LOK), electric models (CRAB, LOK E), as well as compact versions (KUBO) for worksites and tunnels

  Tractive/pushing capacity ranges from 320t to 5,600t in a single unit

  Zephir S.p.A was acquired in December 2016 by Marmon Holdings (Berkshire Hathaway group).

Minitrucks Robotics specializes in designing ultra‑compact, radio‑controlled handling robots.

These 100% French‑made units can lift, pull, or push heavy loads, even in the tightest or most constrained environments.

Particularly suited to the rail sector (rolling stock maintenance, on‑rail traction > 100T, infrastructure worksites), these robots help reduce strain, intervention costs, and carbon footprint.
