ball transfer units // profile www.torwegge-group.com 76 Flexible ball transfer units Our flexible ball transfer units provide a simple solution for transporting lightweight to heavy goods along all directions. Our ball transfer units enable you to easily move, rotate and control your conveyed goods. The ball transfer units generally consist of a steel housing with an embedded, hardened ball cup, which serves as the running track for the small bearing balls. Many of these steel balls support the large load ball, which is also manufactured from steel or plastic. The ball transfer units are constructed so that a very smooth run is possible in all directions, even when moving heavy loads (depending on the version). In a configuration where the ball transfer units are offset from the vertical with overhead mounting, it is possible to achieve a reduction in the load-carrying capacity of up to 50%. Many of our ball transfer units are low-maintenance and feature an oil-soaked felt seal against contamination. Ball transfer units with plastic load balls are excellent for moving loads with delicate surfaces (such as glass, polished aluminum, brass and steel sheet). Our standard product range includes ball transfer units with load ball diameters from 4.8 to 57.1 mm. The balls are made from steel, stainless steel or plastic, with load capacities up to 2,000 kg per ball transfer unit.
