Material selection points
Select the right material combination based on load, environment and budget:
Material type | Advantages | Disadvantages | Applicable scenarios |
Polyurethane (PU) | strong wear resistance, heavy duty, quiet | high cost | Light to medium-sized industrial equipment |
The core features of heavy casters
Strong load-bearing capacity: the single wheel carrying capacity is usually more than 50kg~500kg, and even up to several tons.
Wear resistance: need to adapt to high frequency, long distance movement, and complex ground conditions (such as rough cement, gravel pavement).
Stable structure: Wheel hub, bracket and bearing need high strength design to avoid deformation or fracture.
Typical application scenario
Industrial equipment
Machine tools, punches, injection molding machines, etc. : Need to move heavy machinery smoothly to reduce friction damage to the ground.
Production line transfer equipment: used with the track to ensure long-term stable operation.
Warehousing and logistics
Forklifts and trolleys: Reduce operating resistance when handling heavy goods (such as steel and building materials).
Shelf system: With dense storage shelves to achieve flexible access.
