Demag DRS 200 Translation Wheel Block with Side Connection

The Demag DRS 200 translation wheel block with side connection is a component designed for specific applications where lateral attachment to the crane or machinery is required. Here's an overview of the Demag 200 wheel block with a focus on its side connection feature:

Key Features of Demag wheel set

 • Side connection design: The wheel block is designed to allow for side attachment, which is beneficial for applications with space constraints or unique structural requirements.

 • Compact construction: It features a compact design that saves space while providing the necessary strength and durability for heavy loads.

 • High load capacity: DRS 200 wheel block weighs 35.7kg and can weigh up to 10t. It is suitable for light and small heavy-duty equipment.

 • Precision engineering: Precision-engineered flangeless, single-flange, double-flange wheels ensure smooth operation and accurate alignment with equipment tracks such as cranes and stackers.

Demag wheel block DRS 200 applications

 • Crane systems: Ideal for crane end carriages where side connection is preferred for better weight distribution or structural integrity.

 • Heavy machinery: Useful in various heavy machinery applications that require the flexibility of side-mounted wheel systems.

 • Material handling: This can be used in material handling systems where the crane or hoist needs to be fitted with wheels that allow for side installation.

• Technical specifications (Example)

• Wheel diameter: 200 mm for the DRS 200 wheel block, providing a good balance between load capacity and maneuverability.

 • Bearing type: Equipped with self-aligning roller bearings, which facilitate smooth and low-maintenance operation.

 • Connection details: Side connection may involve specific flanges or attachment points that allow the wheel to be securely fastened to the side of the crane beam or trolley.

Benefits

• Space efficiency: The spheroidal-graphite cast iron (GGG 70) housing is compact and sealed, and the side-connection design saves space and makes better use of the crane's overall footprint.

 • Flexibility: Provides installation flexibility, the box has ample installation space reserved, which can be installed not only on the side but also on the end, top, and pin, which is particularly useful in renovation projects or when using existing infrastructure.

• Easy maintenance: According to the crane design, the side-mounted wheels can be more easily maintained and replaced. The asymmetric box design allows the replacement of equipment or wheels by unscrewing the screws, which is easy to operate.

The Demag wheel block DRS 200 with side connection represents a specialized solution for crane and machinery applications that require a side-mounted wheel system. Its design combines the strength and reliability needed for heavy loads with the flexibility of side installation.
