Dual Swivel Head Dual Wheel AGV Castors
Dual Swivel Head Dual Wheel AGV Castors solve the conflicting problem that an AGV castor often needs both a small offset and a large offset. A castor's manoeuvrability is greatly affected by its offset. A large offset requires less effort to turn but a also needs a bigger turning circle.For an Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV...) this means more vehicle swing when it changes direction. This is a problem if it means the AGV deviates off its designated path.
Therefore, in most AGV applications, a smaller offset is desirable. The problem with a small offset is that it needs more effort to change direction. This can overload the drive motors in the AGV and result in downtime and potentially AGV failure.
The Dual Swivel Head Dual Wheel AGV Castors (GAAD Series) provides a solution to both problems. The patented dual swivel design allows for a variable offset which is automatically optimised by aligning the two rotational axes. This balances the need for a smaller offset and easier manoeuvrability. Furthermore, with dual wheels (Twin wheel) each wheel can rotate in different directions. The effect is that dual wheel castor are easier to move and manoeuvre than single wheel castors. Read More

100mm AGV Swivel Castor, Twin Wheel, 310kg Load | Polyurethane Wheel, Ball bearing (GAAD100ASFHUD)
Original price was: £531.54.£212.62Current price is: £212.62. Sale!This Twin wheel ... Read More100mm Automated Guided Vehicle (AGV) Castor has a bracket made from strong Forged steel that is zinc plated. There is a hardened Taper Roller Bearing in he swivel head, which has a grease nipple, for smooth swivelling action and durability.The castor is unique because it has a self-aligned function enabled by two swivelling axes each with different swivelling radii so that the castor's offset can automatically alter when changing direction to optimise the castor's turning circle for the AGV. Specifically, the offset can range from 10mm to 30mm which reduces the castors 'swing' enabling it to better follow the designated path.The Top Plate is 112mm x 112mm and has 4 bolt holes that are spaced 92mm x 92mm, each with a 9mm hole diameter,This castor frame has two wheels with a Polyurethane tyre (Shore A 95) on an Aluminium centre each containing ball bearings, The polyurethane wheel has excellent elasticity the minimises slipping that can happen when an AGV starts or stops. In addition, the elasticity also absorbs small shocks arising from small imperfections in the floor. The wheel itself is non marking and will not damage the floor. - In Stock
