The Situation

In the world of aerospace manufacturing, precision and safety are paramount. One small mistake can have catastrophic consequences, which is why the tooling fabricator in question needed a caster that met the highest standards of load capacity, ergonomics, and safety.

But they didn’t just want any caster – they needed one that could handle the heaviest loads imaginable, while also being easy and comfortable to maneuver. Enter Caster Concepts and their TWERGO® ergonomic products, known for their ability to improve workplace efficiency and reduce worker injury.

The Solution

The tooling manufacturer had used TWERGO® wheels in the past, but this time they needed something even bigger and better. The challenge was clear: create a caster that could handle a whopping 14,000 lbs. per wheel, with a specific PSI to ensure maximum stability and control.

The engineering team at Caster Concepts rose to the challenge, designing their largest TWERGO® wheels to date. The secret? Extra-thick treads that could disperse weight evenly and handle even the most demanding loads. But it wasn’t just about strength – the caster also had to be safe and ergonomic, with locks, brakes, and toe guards to prevent accidents and injuries.

Thanks to the ingenuity and expertise of the Caster Concepts team, the tooling fabricator was able to successfully complete their job for the aerospace manufacturer, cementing their reputation as a trusted and reliable partner in the industry. With innovative solutions like these, the sky’s the limit!
