Since there are different types of universal wheels, they can be used in different industries. The wheels in these industries can rotate and cannot rotate. So, what is the difference and distinction between casters that can rotate and those that cannot rotate?
For these two kinds of universal wheels, they also have different uses due to their different functions. The swivel wheels can be used for food transportation in restaurants, while the non-swivel wheels can be used for food transportation with a high degree of mechanization. Because the production material used for those non-rotating gimbal wheels is harder, many factories use such gimbal wheels, which are much better than that one.
1 detect the visible wear on the surface of the tire. The "wear point" on the surface of the tire can indicate the accumulation of foreign objects, such as steel wire and other debris may be wound around the wheel, remove the bolt and nut on the wheel to clean up the debris. Check the wheel bearings for damage. If the parts are not damaged, they can be reassembled for further use. If you often encounter the phenomenon of the wheel being entangled in debris, it is recommended to assemble the anti-tangle cover to avoid the occurrence.
2, universal wheel caster loose or card wheel will also cause "grinding point", proper maintenance and inspection, universal wheel manufacturers, especially to check the tightness of the bolt, the amount of lubricant, replace the damaged caster can improve the rolling performance and rotational flexibility of the equipment.
3、Resistance performance test.
When testing this performance, the caster should be kept dry and clean. Place the caster on a metal plate insulated from the ground, keep the edge of the wheel in contact with the metal plate, and apply 5% to 10% of the rated load on the caster. Measure the resistance value between the caster and the metal plate with an insulation resistance tester (nominal open circuit voltage 500V, measured resistance value fluctuation within 10%, product loss not more than 3W). For conductor-type casters, the resistance value should not be greater than 104 ohms, and the resistance of the casters should be between 105 and 107 ohms.
4 Impact test.
Any item due to transportation, use, preservation and other conditions may produce collision vibration, so that the product can not be used normally for a period of time, furniture due to its own size, weight and other characteristics are often susceptible to impact, and the casters located at the bottom to determine whether the furniture is placed smoothly, should have good impact resistance.
