Our wheel blocks can be matched to many different types of travel rail and operating conditions with travel wheels from a wide range of standard designs or with specially developed travel wheel shapes
A wheel block system is a rail-mounted crane component that comprises a set of wheels and a frame to support the load during movement. The system can handle loads up to 40 tons, and the wheels can have a diameter of up to 500 mm. Besides crane accessories, the wheels can also be deployed for moving heavy loads.
Our wheel blocks can be matched to many different types of travel rail and operating conditions with travel wheels from a wide range of standard designs or with specially developed travel wheel shapes – as cost-effective units ready for installation. Today, let's focus on the double flanged wheel block system, which refers to travel wheels guided by flanges on both sides, with generous wear reserves for common rail systems or with a tread to your specifications.
Double Flanged Wheels are a type of wheel design commonly used in various industrial and transportation applications.
Features:
1. Two Flanges: Double flanged wheels have two flanges on the outer edges of the wheel, providing enhanced lateral stability and guidance along a track or rail.
2. Increased Stability: The dual flanges help keep the wheel securely positioned on the track, preventing lateral movement and derailment.
3. Durable Construction: Double flanged wheels are typically made of sturdy materials like steel or specialized alloys to withstand heavy loads and frequent use.
4. Smooth Operation: The wheels are designed to roll smoothly along the rails or tracks, minimizing friction and vibration.
Applications:
1. Rail Transport: Double flanged wheels are commonly used on cranes and other rail-based vehicles to provide secure guidance and stability along the tracks.
2. Gantry Cranes: These wheels are often utilized in the design of gantry crane systems, where they provide smooth movement and precise positioning of the crane along a set of rails.
3. Material Handling Equipment: Double flanged wheels are found in various material handling equipment, such as overhead cranes, industrial carts, AGV, and RGV, to ensure secure and controlled movement.
4. Mining and Quarrying: In mining and quarrying operations, double flanged wheels are used on specialized vehicles and equipment to navigate through rugged terrain and along dedicated rail systems.
