“The Minidozer”: A Closer Look at Movex’s Tiny, Remote-Control Crawler

Updated Jun 5, 2023

The Track-O Minidozer is a small but mighty remote-control device for working in places where you wouldn’t want to send workers.

On this episode of The Dirt, we hear from Jean-Yves Bacle, sales director for Movex Innovations, the manufacturer of the Minidozer. He outlines how the little crawler came into being and some of its many uses, including for the construction industry.

Along with its small size, it runs on lithium-ion batteries, making it useful on indoor jobs or in places where diesel emissions would be harmful to workers. But it also has some heavy-duty tracks for traveling in rough outdoor terrain. Its 22-inch height and width of 28 or 48 inches wide, depending on the model, adds to its versatility.

Movex Innovations has also extended its remote-control, battery-powered technology to other types of small work devices for hauling materials and lifting. They can even climb stairs. The company finds that the uses for its products continue to expand as more people find out about them.
