Blickle Guide Roller STHN 620x1000/180-1000-937434
Developed a roller with a load capacity of 100 tons! A case that achieved improved load-bearing capacity and safety.
This is a case study introducing the heavy-duty drive roller "STHN 620×1000/180-1000-937434" made with polyurethane tread Blickle Extrathane, implemented by a company providing solutions for the wind power industry. Until now, due to high load-bearing requirements, steel wheels were used for the turning rolls. However, because of their high rigidity, vibrations occurred when rotating the tower with the turning rolls, negatively affecting the weld joints, resulting in poor surface quality of the cylindrical curved surface and insufficient roundness. In response, engineers from Blickle closely collaborated with the company to develop a roller with a load capacity of 100 tons. As a result, installation work was significantly simplified, and by distributing the load, it became possible to reduce the wheel axle diameter, leading to substantial cost savings. [Challenges] - The surface quality of the cylindrical curved surface was poor, and roundness was insufficient. - To meet load-bearing requirements, four wheels had to be equipped adjacent to each other. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.*
