Cost reduction with a compact design! Case study on the introduction of customized caster brake systems.
We would like to introduce a case where Blickle's "spring-loaded heavy-duty casters" were implemented in an automobile manufacturer's factory. For various reasons, the engineers at the factory wanted to make slight modifications to the caster's wheel lock mechanism to optimize it for new applications. To prevent collisions, the design of the brake mechanism was changed to reduce the diameter by 65 millimeters. As a result, the changes to the new casters and the optimized brake mechanism led to a reduction in wear on equipment and safety shoes, significantly lowering repair costs. [Challenges] - The engineers wanted to make slight modifications to the caster's wheel lock mechanism to optimize it for new applications. - When the wheel brake lever is released, a protrusion extends, posing a risk of injury if used in other factories. *You can download the catalog. *For more details, please refer to the PDF document or feel free to contact us.
