What's a Schienenwagen in the pharmaceutical context? It's like a bogie bolster wagon, but smaller and for indoor use in the manufacturing of pharmaceuticals.

Thanks!

bogie carriage car or trolley (on rails)


Explanation:
Most search results refer to railway wagons, in fact. But the principle is not restricted to that.

The Autonomous Vehicle Emergency Recovery Tool (AVERT) provides a capability rapidly to deploy, extract and remove both blocking and suspect vehicles from vulnerable positions and confined spaces
:
The four lifting devices have to run under the car and move sideways to dock from the inside so as to allow the vehicle to be to be moved without any additional length or width constraints. The solution was to use specially designed low profile mecanum-wheeled bogies which allow omnidirectional movement even under severe loading. To demonstrate the concept the bogies were mounted on a specially designed deployment unit (DU) which could be towed to the operating area and, through mast mounted sensors autonomously prepare a 3D survey to present the scene to the operator who could designate the vehicle to be moved and its destination. This information allowed the insertion path for the unloaded bogies to the selected car and the extraction path for the loaded bogie-car combination to be automatically generated. Once the paths are approved by the operator the bogies are deployed from the unit and the vehicle is docked onto, lifted and extracted autonomously.
