Find Your Caster
Tag: Kingpinless Caster
Ergonomic casters create less friction with the ground. This benefit can significantly reduce the force exerted to move and turn a cart or dollie. Easier movement results in reduced risk of injury and the associated costs and potentially increased productivity. These benefits are realized with tapered treads, independently rotating wheels and round wheels. In addition, Swivel on swivel designs offer longer leads than conventional casters and reduce the force required to rotate the caster and start it rolling while reducing side-to-side shifting. Higher-profile wheels can also increase carrying capacity without changing wheel size.
A flat-faced caster is a caster wheel with a flat face as opposed to a tapered or round face. A flat face is better for heavier load capacity because the weight is dispersed over a larger footprint, which covers a larger area on the floor.
The kingpinless caster has a swivel section with a simpler design that also provides some definitive reliability benefits. This component is constructed of a top plate with a forged inner race, an outer race to which the legs are attached, and ball bearings between the two pieces. Unlike its counterpart, which requires a bolt or lug (known as a kingpin) to join the swivel section and support the swiveling motion, this unique design completely eliminates the need for such added infrastructure. By having the kingpin removed, loads are distributed more evenly across the remaining components in the swivel section – enhancing its strength and making it immune to deformation, which could shear or snap the kingpin relative to the exertion of certain types of forces.
Addressing noise in manufacturing facilities requires adequate engineering controls at the source to develop a true noise-reducing caster. This is where CasterShoX®, developed by Caster Concepts, comes into play.
CasterShoX features a patented integrated shock absorption system mounted on a heavy-duty casters’ core. This innovative design offers unparalleled benefits, including shock absorption at the caster wheel level and added damping to reduce vibration and noise at source.
