Heavy-Duty Forged Steel Track Wheels for Mining & Bulk Handling
Product Description
Yile Machinery is a leading manufacturer of large-scale, forged steel track wheels, bogie wheels, and support rollers. These critical components are engineered to support the immense weight and dynamic loads of the world's largest mobile equipment, including mining excavators, stacker-reclaimers, and rail-mounted cranes.
We produce custom wheel assemblies to your exact specifications, ensuring reliability and long service life in the most demanding operational environments.
The Foundation of Mobile Heavy Equipment
These wheels form the undercarriage or bogie system that allows massive machinery to travel. A failure in a single wheel can halt an entire operation, making their quality and durability paramount. Our track wheels are designed to provide:
Extreme Load Capacity: Engineered to safely support loads often exceeding hundreds of tons.
Superior Wear Resistance: Specialized heat treatment provides a hardened running surface to resist wear from rails and heavy use.
High Fatigue Strength: The forging process creates a grain structure that is highly resistant to cracking and catastrophic failure.
Advanced Manufacturing for Unmatched Durability
Our track wheels are not cast; they are manufactured through a superior process of forging and precision machining to guarantee maximum performance.
1.High-Quality Forging:
We start with high-grade alloy steel (e.g., 42CrMo, 50CrMo4) which is forged to shape. This process aligns the steel's internal grain structure, creating a component that is significantly stronger and more impact-resistant than a cast equivalent.
2.Specialized Heat Treatment:
The wheel's running surface (the tread) and internal flange faces are hardened, typically via induction hardening, to achieve a high surface hardness (e.g., HRC 55-62). This creates an exceptional wear-resistant layer while the core of the wheel remains ductile and tough to absorb shock loads.
3.Precision CNC Machining:
After heat treatment, the entire wheel is finished on large CNC lathes and milling centers. We machine the bore for bearings, keyways, and the tread profile to tight tolerances, ensuring smooth operation and perfect alignment.
Applications
Our heavy-duty track wheels are essential for a wide range of large-scale equipment:
Bucket-Wheel Excavators (BWEs)
Stackers & Reclaimers
Rail-Mounted Ship Loaders & Unloaders
Large Gantry Cranes & Port Cranes
Transfer Cars & Ladle Cars in steel mills
