Running wheels
These wheels help to transport goods on the sortation system tracks. They ensure smooth and secure running, while at the same time preventing damage and deformation. faigle supplies support and guiding wheels in a range of designs, each fine-tuned to the specific application.
Swivel wheel comfort wheel holder
This new assembly is tailor-made for use in high-performance baggage handling and parcel sortation systems, and ensures quick and easy wheel changes. The wheel holder’s design means that it can be adapted for virtually any application, making it suitable for various types of sortation system. As a universal solution, the optimised assembly can be installed in a wide range of intralogistics facilities and series.
Swivel wheel air wheel holder
Extremely lightweight and cost-effective, the Swivel wheel air wheel holder is ideally suited to smaller wheels as well as light-duty intralogistics applications. By removing the damping bushings and paring down the design to only three plastic parts, faigle has come up with a weight-saving construction that reduces energy use in sortation systems. Tool-free wheel replacement and a durable, lubricant-free pivot bearing translate into shorter assembly times and lower operating costs.
Sortation system wheels
High performance, low consumption: these next-generation wheels from faigle help to reduce energy consumption in parcel and baggage handling systems. Thanks to their optimised concentricity and running resistance, the wheels run smoothly and quietly, while our unique damping system absorbs shocks and vibrations.
faigle’s new guiding wheels feature a polyamide hub with a PAS-PU TCS tire – the specially developed running surface stands out for its minimal compression set. This all but eliminates flattening even after longer stoppages, which saves energy when the system restarts. The higher-strength wheel construction allows for a narrower tire without compromising on load-bearing capacity or running smoothness. A feature that translates into lower running resistance and reduced energy demand in day-to-day operations.
The SE running wheel has outstanding damping properties, above all thanks to the unique faigle damping system (FDS). It provides highly effective protection against shocks and vibrations from the wheel suspension, with no adverse effects in terms of rolling resistance. The wheel’s ribless design is also completely new. It helps to ensure low-vibration concentricity, while the smooth outer contour reduces dust deposits, for effective protection against pockets of dirt.
The completely black SE running wheel is available with laser marking in a range of colours.
Plastic wheels for sortation systems
QUALITY FROM FAIGLE
At faigle, we began developing the first wheels made of thermoplastic polyurethane in 1968. And we’ve been refining our plastic wheels ever since.
Today, we supply various respected manufacturers with wheels for warehouse logistics, sortation and conveying systems.
