Polyurethane U Groove Coating Wheels

The polyurethane U groove coating wheel is a special industrial accessory made of polyurethane material coated on the U groove roller core. As a polymer material, polyurethane (PU) has excellent wear resistance, corrosion resistance, tear resistance and high elasticity. These characteristics make polyurethane U groove coated wheels perform well in various industrial applications.

Production Process

  ● Roller core treatment: First, thoroughly clean the U groove roller core to remove surface oil, impurities or old coatings (if any). This step is key to ensuring good adhesion between the coating and the roll core.

  ● Surface roughening treatment: Increase the surface roughness of the roller core through physical or chemical methods to increase the friction between the polyurethane coating and the roller core and ensure the firmness of the rubber coating.

  ● Lagging: Apply the pre-prepared polyurethane material evenly on the surface of the roller core to form the required coating. This step requires precise control of the amount and uniformity of material to ensure the quality of the coated wheel.

  ● Vulcanization: After the rubber lagging is completed, vulcanization treatment is required. Vulcanization is the process of cross-linking and curing of polyurethane materials, which can enhance the mechanical properties and wear resistance of the material. The vulcanization time depends on the specific formula and process conditions, and usually takes several hours to more than ten hours.

  ● Grinding and trimming: After vulcanization is completed, the rubber-coated wheel is ground and trimmed to remove burrs and uneven parts on the surface to achieve the required size and shape accuracy.

Performance characteristics

  ● It has high strength and toughness and can withstand large loads.

  ● The wear resistance of polyurethane is 3 to 5 times that of ordinary rubber, and it can maintain stable performance under long-term and high-intensity use.

  ● Polyurethane materials have good resistance to oils, solvents and many chemicals, making them suitable for use in harsh environmental conditions.

  ● It can reduce friction and noise with the ground, making the equipment run quieter.

  ● It is easy to process operations such as cutting, grinding and drilling, and can be customized according to actual needs.

Scenes to be used

  ● Logistics industry: Provide smooth movement and stable support in logistics equipment such as trolleys, trucks, forklifts, etc.

  ● Industrial manufacturing: On factory production lines, it is used on various conveyor belts, rollers and other equipment to improve the transportation efficiency and stability of materials.

  ● Warehousing equipment: Used in warehouse shelves, material racks and other equipment to facilitate the handling and storage of goods.

  ● Medical equipment: Taking advantage of its corrosion resistance and antibacterial properties, it is used in medical equipment such as operating tables and hospital beds.
