The Mystery of Casters Saving Power

To make the casters more labor efficient, the  The design and selection can be approached from the following aspects:

Axle radius:According to the principle of leverage.The larger the radius of the axle, the  friction with respect to the shaft.The less drive required.Therefore.Using larger wheels reduces the force when pushing.

Wheel body material:Choosing the right wheel body material can reduce rolling resistance.Hard wheel bodies have less resistance to rolling on hard, smooth surfaces.And the soft wheel body is suitable for uneven or soft ground.High-quality precision bearings can significantly reduce internal friction, the  Increase the rotation efficiency of the wheel body.

Bearing type:Precision bearings such as ball bearings and needle bearings provide smoother rotation,…Reducing friction.Ideal for applications that require frequent movement.And while plastic bearings have higher friction  However, it is suitable for applications where corrosion resistance and flushability are required.

Axle design:The swivel bracket allows the casters to rotate 360 degrees, the  Providing flexibility.However, in some cases it may cause the device travel path to deviate from the intended direction.The fixed bracket, on the other hand, provides better straight-line stability.Some caster designs utilize a locking mechanism that  Lock the rotary function when stabilization is required.

Axle and bracket construction:The structural design of the bracket is critical to stability.Larger wheel diameters provide somewhat better stability and passability, the  But it also increases the size of the caster itself.The relationship between wheel diameter and stability needs to be balanced according to actual use scenarios and conditions.

Maintenance and upkeep:Clean the wheel body and bearings regularly.Checking the tightness of the casters and the degree of wear and tear.

Having considered the above factors together.Casters that can be designed to be more labor efficient.Improve mobile efficiency and stability.The appropriate type and size of caster should also be selected according to the specific use environment and load requirements.
