The rotacaster omni wheel provides a high impact, low maintenance solution for conveyor wheels, transfer tables and ball transfer units.

Multi Directional Conveyors, Conveyor Transfers & Multi Directional Wheels

The Rotacaster omni wheel is a fantastic alternative to traditional conveyor wheels currently on the market. The Rotacaster omni wheel is made from a fully injected moulded web like frame and overmoulded polyeurathane rollers. This means that the axles are fully encapsulated and there are no seams, joints or inserted pins. This means less downtime due to lost rollers and maintenece. 

Rotacaster omniwheels are a full polymer wheel which make them the ideal choice for dusty, dirty or corrosive environments (view case study) and provide obvious advantages over other conveyor wheel alternatives including: 

• long lasting
• low maintenance
• high impact resistance
• high load capacity

The relative width of the conveyor wheel and rollers allow for more rollers per square metre/foot than other conveyor wheel or omni wheel alternatives. This provides greater potential for load distribution, surface support and contact with both linear and non-linear or curved load bases within a given area as well as the following benefits:

• ease of manoeuvrability
• smoother movement or transition of product
• greater load capacities

The 125mm diameter Rotacaster multidirectional wheels are available in single, double or triple configurations. The single Rotacaster omni wheels have a keyway for offsetting adjacent wheels and/or for powered drive tables, whilst double and triple Rotacasters are provided with either nylon or sealed bearings for free rolling environments.

Rotacaster also offers a 48mm diameter omniwheel which is currently available in a double configuration with a triple configuration marked for future release. With a weight capacity of 35kgs (77lbs) and the same robust design and construction as the 125mm omni wheel, the 48mm Rotacaster is ideal for numerous applications including: 

• conveyor transfers 
• pipe or tube rollers
• powered drive tables
• feed tables
• feed rails
• workstation turntables
• as an alternative to ball transfer units
