Technical Details

The trolley is powered by 12V DC running along the tracks using metal strips. Insulated from the tracks, these strips would transmit power to the trolley and detector with brushes on the trolley. This system eliminates the need for cables connected to the trolley and allows for multiple trolleys to be easily placed on one track.
