Lower guide roller

The lower guide roller absorbs lateral forces and ensures the directional stability of the RGB.

Die lower guide roller is a guide element on the chassis of a stacker (RGB), which is responsible for precise lateral guidance along the floor rail.

How it works

While the wheels support the weight, the usually horizontally arranged guide rollers run laterally along the track. They absorb lateral forces and prevent the chassis from veering out or tilting.

areas of application

Lower guide rollers are a standard component of all rail-based stacker cranes. They ensure stable movement in the lane, which is a prerequisite for high speeds.

benefits

They ensure safe driving, minimize wear on wheels and rails, and contribute to positioning accuracy. Correct adjustment of these rollers is crucial for the smooth running of the device.
