How do you combine speed, durability, and precision in a demanding industrial environment? That was exactly the challenge faced by one of our customers, a specialist in internal transport and goods handling systems.

To streamline operations, they developed an advanced box tipper capable of quickly filling and emptying boxes by rotating them around their centre of gravity — minimizing both energy consumption and space usage. But this innovation required one crucial element: the right wheel solution.

🔧The Challenge
The wheels needed to deliver:

• High load capacity
• Smooth rolling on metal rails
• Resistance to shock loads during tipping
• Reliable performance in an abrasive environment

✅ The Solution
Together with Vulkoprin, the answer was found in Vulkollan® wheels (92 Shore A) with a thicker polyurethane coating.

This resulted in:

• Smooth & controlled movement
• Excellent grip during acceleration
• Superior shock absorption
• High tolerance to varying loads

📈The Result
A perfect match between machine and wheel technology:

• Extended service life thanks to exceptional wear resistance
• Reduced maintenance and operational costs
• Reliable performance in even the toughest conditions

👉 Why it matters

Smart engineering is all about the right partnerships and the right materials.
