Basics of Heavy Duty Casters

LPHY is a professionalcasters manufacturer

Heavy duty casters are classified according to the weight capacity of the casters. They are classified as light-duty casters, medium-duty casters, etc., with no clear restrictions. Generally, casters with a load-bearing capacity of 150 kg to 2500 kg or even higher loads are called heavy-duty swivel casters.

2. The English name of the heavy-duty universal wheel is Heaviduticaster or Heaviduticastor. The English name of the heavy-duty universal wheel is Extraheaviduticaster or Extraheaviduticastor.

3. Design of heavy-duty universal wheel brackets Heavy-duty universal wheel brackets are usually made of metal materials, including ordinary steel plate stamping forming, cast steel forming, die forging steel forming, etc., usually flat plate assembly.

The thickness of the steel plate of the heavy-duty universal wheel is generally 6mm, 10mm, 12mm, and 16mm.

Fourth, the design of the rotating plate of the heavy-duty universal wheel The heavy-duty universal wheel usually adopts a double-layer steel ball track, stamping and forming, and heat treatment. For the rotating plate of the extra-heavy swivel wheel, the plane ball bearing or plane needle roller bearing with greater force is generally used, and the conical bearing is matched, which effectively improves the load capacity of the heavy-duty swivel wheel.

For the special impact-resistant heavy-duty universal wheel, the rotating plate is made of die-forged steel, which is finished and formed, which effectively avoids the welding of the connecting plate bolts, and improves the impact resistance of the caster with greater strength.

The steel plate is welded on both sides, combined with the impact-resistant structure of the plane ball bearing and the tapered bearing, the tapered rolling bearing as the secondary load bearing can protect the caster to the greatest extent and is suitable for power traction.

5. Selection of wheel material for heavy-duty universal wheels Heavy-duty universal wheels are used for the movement of heavy equipment, so the wheels of heavy-duty universal wheels generally use hard tread single wheels.

For example, the iron core-wrapped polyurethane wheel produced by our factory is made of imported high-quality liquid polyurethane. With a solid cast iron wheel core and precision double ball bearings, it is durable and has strong impact. 1. Overview of heavy-duty universal wheels Refers to casters with a relatively large load capacity.

Stable plane single wheel surface structure, large wheel width, more flexible rotation, large load capacity and stability, wear resistance, slow weight, suitable for use under heavy load conditions. The wheel material can be selected from forged steel) 6. The diameter of the wheel of the heavy-duty universal wheel is selected according to the principle that the larger the diameter of the wheel, the more flexible the rotation, the commonly used specifications are 4-inch casters, 5-inch casters, 6-inch casters, 8-inch casters, 10" casters, 12" casters.

At present, the 2.5-ton extra-heavy swivel casters used are casters with a diameter of 300mm and a wheel width of 76mm.

Of course, heavy-duty swivel wheels with special specifications can also be customized.

Seven, the choice of heavy-duty caster manufacturers At present, there are many domestic manufacturers of casters, and the good and the bad are mixed. Therefore, users must choose a heavy-duty caster manufacturer with a purpose, and must not blindly pursue low prices, so as not to cause the casters to damage the loaded products It will cause unnecessary property damage, choose a professional manufacturer of heavy-duty swivel wheels.

How are casters made? First, the engineering department makes caster drawings and caster craftsmanship. 2. The purchasing department starts to purchase caster logistics, such as Rose, Luo Mu, etc. 3. Buy caster steel plate.

4. Cut the material. 5. Start stamping caster steel plate. 6. Start plating.

7. Plate and start assembly. 8. Packaging. That's how casters are made
