The shuttle vehicle load bearing wheels are the wheels installed at the bottom of the shuttle vehicle, which are used to support and carry the entire vehicle, and which can move quickly and efficiently in the warehouse or logistics center. Their load-carrying capacity ranges from tens to hundreds of kilograms. This paper will analyze the shuttle vehicle load bearing wheels from two aspects: material and application.

According to the different materials, the shuttle vehicle load bearing wheels can be divided into polyurethane load bearing wheels, nylon load bearing wheels, steel load bearing wheels, rubber bearing load wheels and PU (polyurethane) rubber wheels. Different materials of the load bearing wheel have different characteristics:
• Polyurethane: Low abrasion, excellent wear resistance, impact resistance and bearing capacity
• Nylon: Wear-resistant and corrosion-resistant properties and is manufactured for humid environment
• Steel: Suitable for heavy cargo with hundreds of pounds ultra-high load capacity
• Rubber :Shock absorption
• PU: Combining the advantages of polyurethane and rubber wear-resistant, strong bearing capacity and shock absorption.

The common shuttle vehicle load bearing wheels are widely used in warehouse cargo handling, production line material transportation, e-commerce warehousing distribution and other warehousing logistics fields. Depending on the different high load capacity and scene transportation, these load bearing wheels can be installed on various types of shuttle vehicles such as high-speed shuttle vehicles, medium and low speed shuttle vehicles and heavy shuttle vehicles. Through reasonable selection and use of load-bearing wheels, the operation efficiency and stability of logistics equipment can be improved, thus improving the productivity and service level of the entire logistics system.
The above is some simple information about the material type and application of the shuttle bearing wheel, if you want to know more about the details of the load bearing wheel, you can contact us through the website.
