HW280 Horizontal Drive Wheel

Commonly used horizontal steering wheels for AGV, with wheel diameter of 280mm,equiped with low-voltage servo systems, supporting various control methods such as CANopen, Modbus, EtherCAT buses and pulses; the planetary reduction gearbox has the characteristics of high bearing and high reliability. The external brake and easily detachable wheel design have the characteristics of low heat generation, low failure rate, and easy maintenance. The rotary mechanism is made using the hard-toothed surface gear grinding process, which is easy to achieve high-precision control.

Advantages & Benefits of HW280 Horizontal Drive Wheel

  • High load/traction capacity for its size: With a carrying capacity up to ~2,000 kg and traction up to ~1,600 N, this wheel suits heavy-duty AGV or mobile robot applications where a compact but capable drive wheel is needed.

  • Flexible control interfaces: Support for CANopen, Modbus, EtherCAT, and pulse control means easier integration into a variety of automation systems and contemporary control architectures.

  • Compact footprint: The wheel size and design make it suitable for installations where space is limited, helping reduce chassis size or maximize internal layout efficiency.

  • Reliable mechanical design: Use of a high-bearing gearbox with a hard-toothed surface gear grinding process ensures high precision, low vibration, and long life.

  • Simplified maintenance & serviceability: The wheel is described as “easily detachable”, and the external brake design allows easier servicing, which lowers downtime and maintenance cost.

  • Choice of tyre materials: Polyurethane or rubber tyres allow the wheel to be tailored for indoor smooth surfaces (quiet, low-wear) or for more demanding surfaces (rubber for better grip/outdoor).

  • Good speed profile for AGV environments: While not ultra-high speed, up to 60 m/min is adequate for many pallet trucks, stackers, warehouse AGVs and mobile robots.

  • Steering capability: With integrated steering servo (±110°) the wheel supports turning/steering functionality, improving manoeuvrability in tight spaces or narrow corridors.
