Structure of UFO Ball Transfer Units
The unique design of these models allows for the movement of various weights in all directions. They feature a housing, typically made of steel or sheet steel, which serves as the outer shell, providing stability and protection for the internal components. Inside the housing is a ball pan. While the centrally located load ball ensures smooth and low-friction movement, the embedded ball pan serves as the track for the many small support balls.
The housing itself has mounting holes, allowing the ball transfer unit to be securely screwed onto any surface. Often, several models are used simultaneously on a single level, enabling easy rotation or movement of loads of different sizes.
Application of UFO Ball Transfer Units
By using the appropriate UFO ball transfer units, you can quickly and easily redirect or rotate your goods. This optimizes your workflows, saving valuable time and budget. With various types, sizes, and load capacities, you can choose the ball transfer unit that best suits your application and effectively supports your operational process. Depending on whether you choose models made of steel, stainless steel, or plastic, each has different properties, making them suitable for various fields of use.
For example, they can be used in conveyor technology to ensure the smooth transport of goods on conveyor belts. UFO ball transfer units are also versatile in fields such as mechanical engineering, logistics, warehousing, and production. With the help of ball transfer units, you can effortlessly tackle everyday transport and handling tasks.
Criteria for Selecting the Right Ball Transfer Units
When choosing the right models, you should always consider the weight of the loads to be transported. While plastic balls can handle a load of up to 25 kg, steel balls can support a load of up to 340 kg. Depending on the application, different housing materials may be advantageous. The surface properties should match the environmental conditions, such as using rust-resistant materials in damp environments. Additionally, check the available mounting options and whether they are compatible with your counter elements.
