Recommendations for AGV/AMR caster selection

Recently, General Manager of Quanzhou Zhuo Ye Manganese Steel Casters, Mr. Lu Ronggen, was invited to receive an exclusive interview by the editorial department of New Strategy Mobile Robotics.
This interview is to understand Joy’s AGV casters in the field of mobile robot segmentation of the logistics market performance and product form, mainly focusing on the “AGV/AMR casters selection and application and the company’s development plan” theme.

Talking about China’s mobile robots, Lu Ronggen said that he is very optimistic about China’s mobile robot market, and he believes that mobile robots are a key part of industrial intelligence. In order to develop new markets, Zhuo Ye mobile robot casters for in-depth investigation and research. When the reporter asked about mobile robot enterprises in the choice of caster products most concerned about what, Lu Linggen frankly, although mobile robot enterprises in the choice of caster products need to consider a number of factors, in order to select the most in line with the needs of caster products, but Lu Linggen is very optimistic about China’s mobile robot market, he believes that mobile robots is a key link in industrial intelligence.

In order to develop new markets, Zhuo Ye mobile robot casters for in-depth investigation and research. When asked by the reporter what mobile robot enterprises are most concerned about when choosing caster products, Lu Ronggen confessed that although mobile robot enterprises need to comprehensively consider a number of factors when choosing caster products, in order to choose the caster products that best meet their needs, but load-bearing capacity, safety and abrasion resistance, as well as the level of energy-efficiency savings are the most important factors that most mobile robot enterprises will take into account when making their choices.
“Firstly, mobile robots need to carry objects or equipment during operation, so you need to choose caster products that can withstand their weight. Secondly, the robot needs to ensure the safety of the loaded items during operation, so it is necessary to choose caster products with good grip and stability to avoid skidding or tipping and other situations. Next is wear resistance: robots often need to travel on different surfaces, so they need to choose caster products with good wear resistance to improve service life.” In the field of mobile robots, caster products mainly play a role in helping robots move, and the main mobile robot caster products on the market are as follows: mcnemonic wheels, air cushion wheels, auxiliary wheels, and drive wheels. Zhuo Ye manganese steel caster company manufacturing auxiliary universal wheel can make the robot move in any direction, but also be able to rotate to change direction. Complementing robots that require high mobility and precise positioning, they allow robots to move more energy efficiently.

Although there have been molding adapted to the caster products, but the mobile robot industry is in a rapid development stage, with the gradual diversification of application scenarios, the mobile robot application side of the equipment requirements are also continuously improved, casters as mobile robot parts must keep pace with the times. In order to adapt to the development of the industry, the current mobile robot casters as a whole towards the following directions:
1. Multi-functional: With the continuous expansion of the robot application scenarios, caster products need to adapt to different working environments, terrain and load capacity requirements, so there is a need to have a variety of functions and configuration options.
2. Adaptive: With the continuous improvement of robot intelligence, casters need to be able to automatically adjust their performance according to different working environments and operating conditions, i.e., they are self-adaptive.
3. High precision: in some application scenarios that require high precision positioning and control, caster products need to provide high precision positioning and control functions.
4. Lightweight: In order to improve the handling capacity and flexibility of the robot, lightweight casters are needed to improve the robot’s energy efficiency.
5. Low noise: robots in some application scenarios require a low-noise operating environment, so casters are required to have low-noise characteristics.

In order to achieve this goal, Zhuo Ye manganese steel casters to strengthen the investment in research and development, improve the ability of technological innovation, in 2013, self-research of the adjustable foot series, in 2016, Zhuo Ye pioneering manganese steel material introduced into the casters, to help Zhuo Ye in the market a firm foothold. Not only that, at the beginning of the establishment of the enterprise, Zhuo Ye has established a perfect quality management system, and successfully passed the ISO9001 quality management system certification, has won the provincial high-tech, national high-tech enterprises, weaponry quality management system certification and other honorary certificates, and has become a listed reserve enterprise. In the current era of globalization, Chinese enterprises are going global and becoming the beneficiaries and promoters of globalization. After years of exploration, the business of Zhuo Ye casters has been extended to overseas markets, and the overall quality of the products has ushered in a brand-new challenge in overseas markets. Mr. Lu Linggen is deeply convinced that “quality is the important foundation for long-term survival and development of an enterprise”. As a global enterprise, Zhuo Ye manganese steel casters always put the quality of products and services in the most important position in order to meet the domestic and international market demand for high-quality products and services.

He said bluntly: “Our company wants to make products not only for domestic customers, the huge overseas market is also part of our business map, we want to use the quality of the brand, Zhuo Ye manganese steel casters is not only a Chinese brand, but also a world brand. Zhuo Ye manganese steel casters is also part of China’s quality, to realize the Zhuo Ye manganese steel casters China’s dream, to change the world’s view of China’s casters has always been our corporate dream, through the quality of shaping the brand image of Zhuo Ye, through the brand of Zhuo Ye to change the world’s view of China’s brands, from beginning to end, we have not changed!”
Looking back to 2022, Zhuo Ye developed a variety of products, production and sales have increased substantially, can be said to be full of harvest. Lu Ronggen believes that with the opening up of the epidemic, the whole market will definitely be well energized in 2023. When talking about the specific planning for 2023, he frankly said that this year, Zhuo Ye will increase investment in product research and development, research and development of more energy-efficient, better load-bearing, safer, longer service life, more suitable for mobile robot products. To this end, Zhuo Ye preparations to convene a large number of technical personnel, discussing technical solutions. Lu Ronggen hope, Zhuo Ye manganese steel casters can be for the development of China’s AGV mobile robot industry, contributing to a part of the force!
