Case
40-Ton RGV Traveling Wheel Block
Mailun Polyurethane, a leading wheel manufacturer in China, proudly presents the Rail Guided Vehicle (RGV) Traveling Wheel Block. Engineered to the highest standards, our wheel block system is designed
In a recent automated warehouse project, a leading industrial integrator faced a significant challenge: their Rail Guided Vehicles (RGVs) needed to transport loads exceeding 30 tons with extreme precision and minimal maintenance. Standard wheel components were failing under the stress, leading to frequent downtime. Mailun Polyurethane was selected to provide a customized RGV Traveling Wheel Block System as a high-performance alternative to traditional international brands.
The Challenge: Heavy Loads and Precise Alignment
The client required a solution that could:
Support a 40-ton maximum load per wheel unit.
Maintain perfect alignment on rails to prevent vibration during high-speed transit.
Operate in a temperature-controlled environment ranging from -30°C to +70°C.
The Solution: Mailun Precision RGV Wheel Block System
Mailun integrated its proprietary Spheroidal Graphite Cast Iron Housing and PU-Coated Wheel technology to create a robust, Demag-standard compatible system.
Key Technical Implementations:
High-Load Engineering: We deployed wheel blocks with diameters up to 500mm, capable of handling the 40-ton threshold while ensuring structural integrity.
Horizontal Guide Rollers: To solve the alignment issue, we added precision guide rollers. This ensured the RGV remained stable even during rapid acceleration and deceleration.
Custom Mounting: We utilized Top-mounted and Pin connection types to allow for quick installation into the client’s existing RGV chassis.
The Results: Reliability Meets Efficiency
After six months of continuous operation, the client reported:
Zero Unscheduled Downtime: The rugged construction minimized wear on both the wheels and the rail system.
Enhanced Energy Efficiency: The low-friction precision bearings reduced the power consumption of the electric drive units.
Smooth & Quiet Operation: The advanced design significantly lowered noise levels within the facility.
