1. Performance of universal wheels
Classification: According to the type: ordinary universal wheels, spherical universal wheels, etc.
By material: polyurethane universal wheels, gray rubber universal wheels, nylon universal wheels, metal universal wheels, etc. Uses: Suitable for installation, tables, chairs, beds, sofas and other furniture and various trolleys, medical equipment, instruments, meters and other industrial products, flexible rotation, safe and reliable. It has the performance of resistance to impact, chemical corrosion, low temperature and high temperature, no wheel marks when driving, floor protection, low noise and quietness.
2. Types of industrial caster accessories
There are many types of single wheels of industrial casters, which vary in size, model, tire surface, etc.
The accessories of industrial casters mainly include the following aspects:
Anti-entanglement cover: used to avoid entanglement with other materials on the wheel axle and the gap between the bracket and the wheel, so that the wheel can rotate freely.
Sealing ring: prevent dust from entering the steering bearing or single wheel bearing, maintain its lubricity, and facilitate rotation. Steering lock: By locking the steering bearing with a spring pin (four-position or two-position lock), the movable caster can be locked as a fixed caster.
Single wheel brake: a brake device installed on the wheel sleeve or tire surface for hand or foot operation. Full brake: a brake device that can lock the steering and fix the wheel. Support frame: a device installed under the transport vehicle to fix it in a certain position. Others: including steering arms, levers, rubber anti-collision pads, anti-loosening pads and other parts with specific uses.
3. Characteristics of universal wheels
Universal wheels are so-called movable casters, and their structure allows 360-degree horizontal rotation. Casters are a general term that includes movable casters and fixed casters. Fixed casters do not have a rotating structure and cannot rotate horizontally but only vertically. Casters are generally used in combination. For example, the structure of a trolley is two fixed wheels in the front and two movable universal wheels at the back near the push handle.
Universal wheels have the properties of wide load range, wear resistance, impact resistance, high/low temperature resistance, heavy load, conductivity, anti-static, anti-aging, shock absorption, corrosion resistance, low noise, etc.
Universal wheels refer to the bracket installed on the caster wheel that can rotate 360 degrees horizontally under dynamic or static load. The universal wheel bracket produced by our company is stamped with thick steel plate, with strong load-bearing capacity, high-quality bearings, flexible operation, and long service life.
4. Maintenance of heavy-duty industrial casters
Effectively maintain heavy-duty industrial casters and regularly maintain the operating parts of the casters. Maintenance is divided into three aspects: adding lubricating oil, removing entanglements in the operating parts, and doing a good job of anti-corrosion.
First, the operating parts of the steel ball of the bracket of the industrial caster and the operating parts of the bearing of the wheel should be lubricated regularly. Second, regularly clean the winding or wire ends wrapped around the operating parts of the steel ball of the bracket of the caster and the operating parts of the bearing of the wheel.
Third, most caster brackets are made of metal. Rust prevention is very important for the service life of casters: to prevent the caster bracket from rusting, anti-rust paint and anti-rust oil can be applied regularly. For the majority of consumers, they should buy industrial caster products from regular manufacturers: avoid using fake and inferior caster products. Carry out inspections in the production process of casters and strengthen quality control in the sales process. Heavy-duty caster manufacturers should strengthen quality management. 5. How to make better use of universal wheels Universal wheels are so-called movable casters, and their structure allows 360-degree horizontal rotation. Casters are a general term, including movable casters and fixed casters. Fixed casters have no rotating structure and cannot rotate horizontally but only vertically. These two types of casters are generally used in combination. For example, the structure of a trolley is two fixed wheels in the front and two movable universal wheels in the back near the push armrest. So how to make better use of universal wheels? To make better use of universal wheels, you need to pay attention to the following points: 1. The caster must be installed in the position specified by the manufacturer. 2. The installed caster rack must have sufficient strength and meet the load-bearing capacity during use. 3. The function of the caster cannot be changed and is not affected by the installation device.
4. The rotating wheel axis must always be vertical.
5. The fixed casters must be in a straight line with their wheel axis.
6. If only swivel casters are used, they must be consistent. 7. If fixed casters are used in conjunction with swivel casters, all casters must be compatible with each other and must be recommended by the manufacturer.
6. Application of industrial casters
Industrial casters mainly refer to a type of caster product used in factories or mechanical equipment
Industrial casters can be used in various industries such as factories, workshops, commerce, and catering. The main uses are tool carts, supermarket shopping carts, massage chair parts scooters, stamped parts, scaffolding for the construction industry, fasteners, and injection molded parts
