In application environments such as food processing workshops, aseptic packaging areas and central kitchens, AGV friction rollers must not only meet high frequency operation requirements but also comply with food grade hygiene standards, anti-contamination requirements and corrosion resistance. Through friction drive, they efficiently transmit torque from the motor to the ground, achieving stable, low noise and high precision material handling.
Basic Structure of AGV Friction Rollers
High strength wheel core (steel or aluminum alloy)
Polymer friction layer (PU / rubber)
Precision bearing system
Connecting flange or drive interface
Optional anti-static or antibacterial coating
Working Principle of Friction Rollers
Motor drives the roller to rotate
Stable friction force forms between the roller and the ground
Propels the AGV forward or to steer
Roller performance directly affects AGV traction, positioning accuracy and operational stability.
Design Features of Food Grade AGV Friction Rollers
Made of food grade polyurethane material, resistant to grease and cleaning agent corrosion.
High friction coefficient design prevents slippage and optimizes start and brake stability.
High elastic material structure effectively absorbs vibration and impact.
High wear resistant PU coating suitable for 24-hour continuous operation.
