Application scenarios of Ø70mm guide shoe rollers

Elevator equipment

In the elevator system, guide shoe rollers are used to guide the elevator car and counterweight device to run smoothly on the guide rails. The Ø70mm roller, due to its moderate size and load-bearing capacity, is often used in small and medium-sized elevator equipment to ensure the stability and safety of elevator operation.

Cranes and lifting equipment

The guide shoe rollers in cranes are used to guide the movement of the boom or hook. The Ø70mm roller performs exceptionally well in light cranes, capable of withstanding certain loads and reducing running resistance.

Automated production line

On automated production lines, guide shoe rollers are used to guide the movement of conveyor belts, mechanical arms or other moving parts. The Ø70mm roller, with its compact size and excellent guiding performance, is suitable for equipment with limited space.

Warehousing and logistics equipment

In the warehousing and logistics system, guide shoe rollers are used to guide the movement of shelves, conveyors or AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles). The Ø70mm roller can meet the guiding requirements of small and medium-sized logistics equipment.

Design features of Ø70mm guide shoe rollers

Material selection

The material of the guide shoe roller directly affects its performance and service life. Common materials include:

Nylon (PA) : It features wear resistance, corrosion resistance, self-lubrication and other properties, and is suitable for light and medium load scenarios.

Polyurethane (PU) : It features high elasticity, wear resistance and impact resistance, and is suitable for heavy-load and highly vibrating scenarios.

Metals (such as steel or aluminum alloys) : They feature high strength and high wear resistance, making them suitable for extreme working conditions.

Bearing design

Bearings are the core components of guide shoe rollers, directly affecting the rotational efficiency and load-carrying capacity of the rollers. Common types of bearings include:

Ball bearings: Suitable for high-speed and light-load scenarios.

Needle roller bearings: Suitable for medium-load and medium-speed scenarios.

Sliding bearings: Suitable for low-speed and heavy-load scenarios.

Surface treatment

To enhance the wear resistance and corrosion resistance of rollers, surface treatments such as galvanizing, spraying or hardening are usually carried out on the wheel body.

Installation method

There are various installation methods for Ø70mm guide shoe rollers, including bolt fixation, snap-fit installation and shaft sleeve installation. Choosing the appropriate installation method can simplify the installation process and enhance the stability of the equipment.

Selection Guide for Ø70mm Guide Shoe Rollers

Load requirements

Select the appropriate roller material and bearing type based on the load requirements of the equipment. For instance, light-load equipment can choose nylon rollers and ball bearings, while heavy-load equipment requires polyurethane or metal rollers as well as needle roller bearings.

Operating speed

High-speed operating equipment requires the selection of rollers and bearings with low rotational resistance and low heat generation, such as ball bearings.

Working environment

In high-temperature, humid or corrosive environments, materials and surface treatment methods that are resistant to high temperatures and corrosion should be selected.

Size matching

The size of the Ø70mm roller needs to match the guiding system of the equipment to ensure that the roller can run smoothly and bear the corresponding load.

Maintenance cost

Choosing rollers that are easy to maintain and replace can reduce the long-term operating costs of the equipment.

Maintenance and care of Ø70mm guide shoe rollers

Regular lubrication

Regular lubrication of the bearings of the rollers can reduce friction and wear and extend the service life of the rollers.

Check the wear condition

Regularly inspect the wear of the rollers and replace those that are severely worn in a timely manner to avoid affecting the normal operation of the equipment.

Clean the working environment

Keep the surrounding environment of the equipment clean to prevent dust and debris from entering the rollers and bearings, which may affect their performance.

Fastening installation components

Regularly inspect the installation components of the rollers to ensure they are securely fastened and reliable, and prevent the rollers from failing due to loosening.
