The caster of the application

 
Casters are widely used in almost any industry. According to the needs of different industries, people constantly invent various casters, and there are about 150000 different Casters used in various industries all over the world.
 
The structure of casters is made of a single wheel mounted on the bracket, which is used for installation under the equipment to make it move freely. Casters are mainly divided into two categories:
 
A fixed caster fixed bracket with A single wheel can only move along A straight line.
 
B movable casters 360 degrees steering bracket with a single wheel, can follow the intention of any direction.
 
There are a wide variety of single wheels of industrial casters, which vary in size, model, tire tread, etc. Choosing a suitable wheel depends on the following conditions:
 
A carrying capacity.
 
(B) use of the site environment
 
C various special climate, such as humidity, high temperature or cold.
 
D the working environment contains chemicals, blood, grease, engine oil, salt and other substances.
 
E requirements for shock resistance, collision and quiet driving.
 
How to choose casters suitable for you
 
(Preoccupation is described below)
 
I. How to choose appropriate wheels
 
1. Select wheel material: first consider the size of the road surface, obstacles, residual substances (such as iron filings and grease) on the use site, and the environmental conditions (such as high temperature, normal temperature or low temperature) and different conditions such as the weight that the wheel can carry to decide the appropriate wheel material. For example, rubber wheels cannot resist acid, grease and chemicals, while Super polyurethane wheels, high-strength polyurethane wheels, nylon wheels, steel wheels and high-temperature resistant wheels can be applied to different special environments.
 
2. Calculate the load capacity: in order to calculate the load capacity required by various casters, we must know the weight of transportation equipment, maximum load and the number of single wheels and Casters used. The load capacity required for a single wheel or Caster is calculated as follows:
 
Casters -- we have the price advantage of raw materials, T =(E + Z)/m×n:
 
--- T = the weight required for a single wheel or caster;
 
--- E = the weight of the transportation equipment;
 
---Z= maximum load;
 
--- M = the number of single wheels and Casters used;
 
--- N = safety factor (about 1.3-1.5).
 
3. Determine the wheel diameter: Generally, the larger the wheel diameter, the easier it is to push, the greater the load capacity, and at the same time, it can protect the ground from damage, the choice of wheel diameter should first consider the weight of carrying and the starting thrust of the truck under load.
 
4. Choice of wheel material soft and hard: Generally, there are nylon wheel, super polyurethane wheel, high strength polyurethane wheel, high strength artificial rubber wheel, iron wheel and inflating wheel. Super polyurethane wheel and high-strength polyurethane wheel can meet your handling requirements no matter driving on indoor and outdoor ground; High-strength artificial rubber wheel can be applied to hotels, medical devices, floors, wood floors, tile floor and so on require driving on the ground with low noise and tranquility when walking; Nylon wheel and iron wheel are suitable for places with uneven ground or iron filings on the ground; while inflating wheel is suitable for occasions with light load and uneven pavement.
 
5. Flexibility of rotation: the larger the single wheel rotates, the more labor-saving it will be. The Roller Bearing can load heavy loads and has greater resistance during rotation: the high quality (bearing steel) ball bearing is installed on the single wheel, it can carry heavy load, rotate more lightweight, flexible and quiet.
 
6, the temperature conditions: cold and high temperature of the occasions on casters has a great influence on polyurethane wheels at minus 45 ℃ low temperature, flexible, high temperature resistant round in high temperature 275 ℃ under rotation light.
 
II. How to choose the appropriate wheel frame
 
1. Generally, when choosing a suitable wheel frame, first consider the weight carried by casters, such as supermarkets, schools, hospitals, office buildings, hotels and other places. Because the floor is good, the goods carried are smooth and lighter, (Each caster carries 10-140kg), it is suitable to choose the electroplating wheel frame which is stamped and formed with thin steel plate (2-4mm), and its wheel frame is light, flexible to operate, quiet and beautiful, this electroplating wheel frame is divided into two rows of beads and one row of beads according to the ball arrangement. Double rows of beads should be applied when moving or transporting frequently.
 
2. In factories, warehouses and other places, the goods are transported frequently and the load is heavy (each caster carries 280-420kg), then it is suitable to use thick steel plate (5-6mm) stamping hot forging and welding double row ball wheel frame.
 
3. If it is used to carry heavy objects such as textile factories, automobile factories, machinery factories and other places, due to the heavy load and the long walking distance in the factory (each caster carries 350-1200kg), therefore, the wheel frame welded after cutting with thick steel plate (8-12mm) should be selected. The movable wheel frame uses plane ball bearing and ball bearing on the base plate, so that the casters can bear heavy load and rotate flexibly, anti-impact and other functions.
 
III. Select suitable bearings
 
1. Telling bearing: telling is a special engineering plastic, which is suitable for wet and corrosive places, with general flexibility of rotation and high resistance.
 
2. Roller bearing: the roller bearing after heat treatment can carry heavy load, and the flexibility of rotation is general.
 
3. Ball bearing: the ball bearing made of high quality bearing steel can carry heavy load and is suitable for occasions requiring flexible and quiet rotation.
 
4. Surface bearing: suitable for high and ultra-high load and high rotating speed occasions.
