Description
Custom High Speed Mecanum Wheels with Brake – Precision Engineered for Agile AGV Applications
Why Choose This Product
Our high speed mecanum wheel with brake is designed to solve real-world motion control challenges. The wheel uses a specially formulated polyurethane compound with Shore A 85° hardness, providing superior abrasion resistance compared to standard rubber wheels. This advantage translates directly into longer service life and reduced replacement frequency, saving your operation both time and cost. The integrated electromagnetic brake engages within 0.2 seconds, enhancing safety for automated systems. Evidence from our in-house lab shows less than 0.05mm dynamic balancing deviation after 5000 cycles, ensuring smooth operation at continuous speeds up to 2000 rpm. Each wheel undergoes individual load testing and brake response validation before shipment. This combination of features and proven performance makes our wheel a reliable choice for demanding applications where precision and uptime matter most.

Production & Inventory Policy
Lead time: Actual delivery depends on raw material supply, production scheduling, and seasonal demand fluctuations. We provide the best possible estimate after order confirmation and maintain timely communication throughout the production cycle.
Stock status: We generally do not hold finished goods inventory, but some popular standard sizes may be available. Real-time stock levels vary with production and sales, so we recommend checking with our sales team before placing an order.
Bulk & urgent orders: For large quantities or time-sensitive projects, please contact us early to discuss capacity and scheduling. We will do our best to accommodate your timeline while maintaining quality standards.
Frequently Asked Questions
1. What is the minimum order quantity (MOQ) for custom high speed mecanum wheels with brake?
Our standard MOQ is 10 pieces for custom sizes and 50 pieces for standard configurations. However, we can discuss lower quantities for prototyping or first-time orders. Contact us with your specific requirements for a tailored quotation.
2. Can you provide custom solutions for AGV applications with special voltage or brake specifications?
Yes, we offer full OEM and ODM customization. Our engineering team can adjust bore diameter, hub offset, brake voltage (12V to 72V DC), tread hardness, and roller geometry to match your AGV design. We provide expert advice and price suggestion based on your load and speed requirements.
3. What is the typical lead time for a custom order?
Lead time varies depending on the complexity and quantity. For custom wheels with brake integration, typical lead time is 15 to 25 working days after design approval. We keep you updated at each production stage and can arrange partial shipments for urgent needs.
4. How does the brake system perform under high-speed operation?
The electromagnetic brake is spring-engaged and releases when power is applied, ensuring fail-safe stopping. It has been tested for over 100,000 engagement cycles with consistent response. At continuous speeds up to 2000 rpm, the brake stops the wheel within 0.2 seconds, providing reliable safety for automated systems.
5. Do you provide samples for testing before bulk order?
Yes, we offer pre-production samples for your evaluation. Sample lead time is typically 7 to 12 working days. Sample cost is deductible from the bulk order quantity. We also support third-party testing and can provide load test reports alongside the sample.
6. What quality control measures are in place for the wheels?
Every wheel passes dynamic balancing (<0.05mm), load testing at 1.5x rated capacity, brake response verification, and visual inspection. Our ISO9001-certified process includes incoming material inspection, in-process checks, and final quality sign-off. Test reports can be shared upon request.
7. How should I maintain the brake system and wheel rollers for optimal lifespan?
Regular inspection of brake pad wear and roller surface condition is recommended. Clean the rollers periodically to remove debris that may affect omnidirectional motion. For the brake system, check electrical connections and spring tension annually. Our technical team can provide a detailed maintenance guide for your specific configuration.
