Automation of transporting heavy molds lifted by eye bolts and similar devices. A wheel-type motor that achieves high drive torque and low cost. Suitable for small lot production.
In lifting operations involving molds and heavy objects, the reduction of "setup and changeover time" using swivel eye bolts and hooks is an essential initiative for improving productivity on-site. However, even if the "attachment and detachment" of heavy molds and jigs is accelerated, if the "transportation work" to move them to molding machines or storage areas still relies on manual labor, the overall automation and labor-saving of the factory cannot be completed. Kuru Corporation is not a manufacturer of lifting equipment such as eye bolts and hooks, but it serves as a dedicated contact point for the drive motors of "large AGVs and AMRs (automated guided vehicles)" that transport heavy objects and molds automatically. We provide high-torque "wheel-type geared motors" that can withstand the transportation of several tons of heavy objects, contributing to the lowering of vehicle height and the reduction of development costs. We achieve a remarkable price advantage through our unique global procurement network while ensuring Japanese quality through comprehensive domestic inspections, strongly supporting the automation of heavy object transportation from small-lot prototypes of several dozen units.

basic information
■ Role of Motors in Heavy Load and Mold Transport AGVs - High Torque Drive: A powerful driving torque is necessary to stably transport heavy molds and loads ranging from several hundred kilograms to several tons, including during turning and climbing. - Low Profile and Space-Saving: To autonomously operate under molding machines and frames, a compact structure that accommodates a reduction gear and motor in the wheel section is essential. ■ Features of Crew's Wheel-Type Geared Motor - High Torque & Space-Saving: The wheel-type gear head structure with urethane tires achieves high torque output while minimizing the footprint of large AGVs. - Safety Design: To ensure safe operation in environments where people and machines coexist, it is possible to equip safety encoders. - Quality Assurance System: Thorough domestic inspections are conducted on all units from prototypes and small lots to mass production, absorbing direct import risks. - Support System: Dedicated domestic staff will provide remote assistance and on-site support until technical challenges are resolved.
Price information
By providing products based on globally standardized ODM, we dramatically reduce the introduction costs compared to conventional domestic products. Prices may vary depending on the combination of wheel diameter, output, reduction ratio, and options (such as electromagnetic brakes), so please request a quote for details. Additionally, we offer flexible customization from a single unit, including changes to encoders to match higher-level controllers and adjustments to rated voltage.

Applications/Examples of results
【Automatic Transport Line for Heavy Objects and Molds (AGV/AMR) in Action】 - Automatic transport AGV for heavy press molds and injection molds, which can be lifted and switched using eye bolts and hooks. - Large AMR that autonomously navigates within the factory to transport heavy objects and jigs between processes. - Low-profile heavy-duty cart that operates by maneuvering under machines and in tight spaces. - Automatic transport vehicles for large structures and parts in shipbuilding, heavy industry, and automotive factories. We support production technology and equipment engineers who are struggling with the desire to achieve automation and labor reduction not only in mold attachment and detachment but also in transportation, by offering "CLUE (a hint for solutions)" and providing "empathetic support" until the end with full responsibility. Product Lineup: - Wheel-type geared motors (HGM series / with polyurethane tires) - In-wheel motors (direct drive type / with in-wheel gears) - Low-voltage AC servo motors / motor drivers
