TAGCarts® · Wireless charging for healthcare
Carts that charge when nurses park them.
The TAG-X® Smart Rail is hospital wall protection with wireless charging inside. Workstations, carts and mobile equipment charge whenever they touch the wall: no cords, no outlets, no battery swaps.

Four workstations docked and charging, no cords to plug in
The problem
Where’s your nearest outlet?
Every powered cart in a hospital needs a nurse to remember it: plug it in, unplug it before moving, check the battery, swap the battery, find an outlet, wipe the cord. Cords trip people and carry germs. Swappable batteries go missing and wear out. Each cart has more than twelve cord touch points a day.
TAGCarts started in 2019 to redesign the medical cart around the nurse. The answer was to take the power cord away altogether.
The platform
One rail, one dashboard, any cart
OmniTAG® is the whole system: TAG-X hardware in the wall, NexTAG software in the cloud, and carts that charge on any rail.
Hardware
TAG-X® Smart Rail
Wireless, contactless charging built into the wall protection your corridors already need. Carts charge when nurses park them.
Software
NexTAG® software
The cloud dashboard for every rail, cart and battery: where they are, how they charge, and which equipment performs.
Carts
TRIO® and TAHOE® carts
The TRIO® workstation cart, powered by TAG-X, and the TAHOE® supply, procedure and treatment cart, both designed with nurses.

What nurses and physicians say
Love the TAG-X wireless charging! I seek the TAGCarts out over the old corded carts because they’re just easier and make my workflow smoother. If anything I’d love to have more locations for charging.
The wireless charging WOWs are superior to corded or desktop workstations, not only because of the mobility and fast response, but the ease and speed of parking the WOW for charging.
Reliable, convenient, easy to use, and saves my back!
