DWS wheel sets

DWS Wheel Sets

The DWS wheel set is designed for transport operations on rails, including applications that involve heavier loads. It can be used to create complete travel units, available in both driven and non-driven versions. These units are equipped with offset and angular geared motors from our modular industrial drive system.

Using the reliable DWS series components ensures strong performance, high functional reliability, and easy installation, especially when replacing a wheel. Because of its flexible design, the DWS wheel set is widely used not only in crane and material handling systems, but also in various mechanical engineering applications.

Key Features:

  • Can be installed in hollow profile sections and box-section girders, and used as corner-bearing travel units
  • The entire wheel set can be installed without complicated alignment in corner-bearing arrangements
  • Available as a complete configuration with a torque bracket
  • CAD drawings available in various formats to support your design process
