Rotacaster

Rotacaster omni wheels are the only multidirectional floor wheel to combine 360° movement with the stability of a fixed mounting, making them the sole alternative to swivel castors.

 

The rotacaster is a high impact omni wheel designed for both floor and conveyor transfer use.  Manufactured from engineering polymer, the injection moulded web-like structure of the wheel body and over-moulded rollers provide a durable and robust wheel with no pins, inserts or seams to maintain, ensuring consistent trouble free performance for the life of the wheel.

Unlike swivel castors, the fixed orientation of the rotacaster omni wheel provides both simple and stable mounting options and allow the wheel to be housed within a product requiring minimal space or clearance.  Since each wheel acts independently to improve control, multiple wheels and layouts may be customized to meet individual manoeuvrability and load requirements.

As a fixed wheel, rotacaster omni-wheels are unique in providing the following benefits:Online store coming soon!



    * improved load stability and balance resulting in improved safety
    * superior tracking capabilities and directional control (even across inclines)
    * the ability to leverage off rear wheels to easily mount kerbs and single steps
    * precise positioning due to no rotation about a swivel offset
    * simple mounting alternatives

Rotacaster omni wheels are available in single, double or triple row. Single rotacaster omni-wheels may be combined to form either free turning or keyed driven conveyor wheels, while the double and triple wheels are generally fitted with fork, channel or rail mounts.  The rotacaster standard range includes polyurethane or rubber rollers, and on the double and triple omni wheels, sealed or nylon bearings.
