When selecting and using suitable AGV (Automated guided vehicle) casters to ensure their normal operation and task completion, you can consider the following points:
Load capacity: Select casters with sufficient load capacity based on your AGV design and the required weight to be carried. Ensure that the casters can support the load of the AGV and avoid overloading.
Wear resistance: As AGVs typically need to move and turn for long periods of time and at high frequencies, it is important to choose casters with good wear resistance. Durable materials can extend the service life of casters and reduce the frequency of replacement and maintenance.
Ground adaptability: Consider the adaptability of the casters to the ground. Different environments may require different types of casters, such as rubber wheels suitable for flat surfaces, and casters with brakes suitable for special scenarios such as slopes.
Guidance method: Select the corresponding casters based on the guidance method of AGV. Common ways of guiding casters include omnidirectional casters, bidirectional casters, and fixed directional casters. Choose the guidance method based on specific needs to ensure that AGVs can flexibly turn and move.
Turning radius: According to the requirements of the working environment, select suitable casters to achieve the required turning radius. The small turning radius casters allow AGV to operate flexibly in narrow spaces, improving maneuverability.
Anti slip design: Consider using in damp or slippery environments, and choose casters with good anti slip performance to ensure stable operation of AGV in various work scenarios.
The most important thing is to consult with casters suppliers or professional technical personnel in detail based on your specific needs and environmental characteristics to choose the most suitable type and specification of casters for your AGV.
