Fuma Caster

Fuma Caster / Fuma Wheel – Definition & Applications

Definition:
A Fuma Caster (or Fuma Wheel) is a heavy-duty, precision-engineered industrial caster system designed for load-bearing, mobility, and stability in demanding environments. The name likely originates from a brand or specialized design (e.g., Japanese/German engineering). These casters typically integrate a wheel (often polyurethane or steel) with a swivel mechanism, brake, or leveling function for controlled movement and positioning.

Key Features & Advantages:

1. High Load Capacity – Supports heavy equipment (500kg~10+ tons per caster) with reinforced structures.

2. Precision Movement – Smooth-rolling wheels with ball bearings reduce friction for effortless maneuvering.

3. Stability & Safety – Optional brakes, anti-vibration pads, or leveling screws prevent unintended shifts.

4. Durability – Corrosion-resistant materials (stainless steel/hardened rubber) suit harsh conditions (factories, labs).

5. Modular Design – Interchangeable wheels/swivel plates adapt to diverse needs.

Primary Applications:

• Industrial Machinery: Move CNC machines, presses, or assembly lines.

• Medical/Hospital Equipment: Transport MRI machines, surgical carts with noise-free wheels.

• Aerospace/Automotive: Position heavy tooling jigs or robotic arms.

• Logistics: Heavy-duty pallet carts or warehouse racks.

Why Choose Fuma Casters?
They bridge mobility and stability, critical for industries where equipment must be relocated yet remain vibration-free during operation. Customizable options (wheel material, brake types) further enhance versatility.

Note: Specifications vary by manufacturer. Confirm load ratings/features for your use case.
