Jun 14 , 2023
Casters play an extremely important role on the earth. It is a very important invention that can be found in every scene of our production and life. Without it, we would be significantly less effective.
Casters are a very useful mechanical device whose main purpose is to facilitate the movement and handling of items.
From the industry use, casters can be divided into industrial casters, furniture casters and medical casters.
Among them, industrial casters are the most diverse and widely used. The industries involved include production, logistics, handling, etc.
Casters can be used on a variety of machines and equipment such as plastic folding ]latform hand trolleys, shevles, office furniture, and more. Casters can help users easily move heavy or difficult items, which not only saves time and energy, but also reduces injuries and damages during transportation.
Just imagine, what kind of scene would it be if there is no "trolley" with casters in a busy factory? Which we call the casters as: trolley casters, or " trolley wheels". Workers need to manually move the 37 pounds Mac Pro from the assembly workshop to the warehouse, or from the warehouse to the shipping area. What an inefficiency of work. And use a trolley equipped with casters, it's easy to transport 10 Mac Pros in one trip.
You may feel that this scene is far away and has no sense of substitution. Let's take a look at such an example. It is summer, and a certain supermarket has purchased a large number of watermelons. There is a long distance from the warehouse to the fruit stand. No matter how good the supermarket staff are, they can only take one box at a time. After all, a box of watermelon weighs 50-70 pounds. On the trolley with four casters, 2 swivel casters and 2 fixed casters, it is easy to load 5 boxes of watermelons, which greatly improves the efficiency of transportation.
Metal casters for furniture, the most common one is the office chair with five legs. Below the five claw-like legs is a kind of furniture caster. With it, people can move easily while sitting on the chair, and it can effectively protect the floor. Other types of furniture casters will not give examples.
The application of casters in medical treatment is mainly reflected in casters for hospital beds, casters for medical equipment, and casters for medical carts. Without medical casters, can you imagine doctors and nurses rushing to the delivery room with a pregnant woman who is about to give birth? Or, the princess hugged and hugged a patient who had just finished surgery and transferred to the ward. Therefore, casters are also extremely important in medical treatment.
That's why, we need casters. We need all kinds of casters to facilitate our life, improve our production efficiency and create a better world.
