Vulkollan Monorail Crane Drive Wheels

Vulkollan® monorail crane drive wheels are designed for high-performance applications in various industries, offering a combination of strength, durability, and reliability. Here's an in-depth look at these drive wheels and their key features:

Vulkollan® Material and Construction

• Vulkollan® Polyurethane: Vulkollan® is a high-performance material produced by Vulkoprin, known for its excellent mechanical properties. It is used in the range of 75 to 95 Shore A, making it suitable for a wide range of technical applications.

•  High Load Capacity: Vulkollan® wheels are designed to withstand high loads, making them ideal for applications like monorails and cranes where heavy loads are common.

• Chemical Bonding: The Vulkollan® tread is chemically bonded to the wheel center, ensuring a strong and durable connection that can withstand the rigors of industrial use.

Key Features

• Low Rolling Resistance: Vulkollan® wheels have very low rolling resistance, which contributes to their high load-carrying capacity and efficient operation.

• Temperature Range: These wheels can operate in a wide temperature range, from -40°C to +80°C, and temporarily up to +120°C, making them suitable for various climates and environments.

• High Resilience and Grip: The thin tread of the Vulkollan® wheels offers high resilience and grip, providing excellent traction and stability on different surfaces.

Applications

• Monorail Systems: Vulkollan® drive wheels are used in monorail systems for their high load capacity and ability to handle dynamic loading stresses. They can overcome inclines of up to 30 degrees, making them ideal for transportation of personnel and materials in challenging conditions like mines.

•  Automated Guided Vehicles (AGVs): These wheels are also used in AGVs for their high load capacity and durability, providing reliable movement in automated systems.

• Material Handling: Vulkollan® wheels are used in material handling applications, such as conveyor systems and heavy-duty machinery, where their strength and resistance to wear are crucial.

• Advantages

• Non-Marking and Non-Staining: Vulkollan® wheels are non-marking and non-staining, making them suitable for use in environments where floor protection is important.

• Resistance to Aggressive Substances: These wheels are resistant to a wide range of aggressive substances, except for hot water or hot air with high humidity levels, ensuring their longevity in various industrial applications.

• Electrical Conductivity: Vulkollan® can be formulated to be electrically conductive, which is beneficial for applications requiring antistatic or electrically conductive wheels.

Vulkollan® monorail crane drive wheels offer a superior solution for high-performance applications, providing a combination of strength, durability, and resistance to harsh conditions. Their versatility makes them suitable for a wide range of industries and applications, from monorails and AGVs to material handling systems.

Whether you're looking for drive wheels for your monorail system or need a reliable solution for your material handling equipment, Vulkollan® wheels are an excellent choice, ensuring efficient and safe operation in demanding environments.
