AGVs/AMRs have become the key to enhancing efficiency in warehouse logistics automation. The steering wheel system is not only a fundamental component but also the central hub for achieving precise navigation, flexible steering, and efficient operation. EED Transmission's steering wheel series products have been widely applied in AGVs and other handling robots, offering customized solutions.
The steering wheel system is a highly integrated precision electromechanical unit that undertakes three core responsibilities: "steering + traveling + positioning," directly influencing the path accuracy, turning radius, and load-bearing capacity of AGVs/AMRs. It includes:
Powerful Drive Motor: Provides forward propulsion.
Precise Steering Servo/Stepper Motor: Controls steering angles.
High-Precision Encoder and Reducer: Enables accurate feedback and torque output.
Wear-Resistant Wheels and Efficient Shock Absorption Structure: Adapts to ground conditions and ensures smooth operation.
Type | Advantages and Highlights | Applicable Working Conditions | EED Recommended Series/Features |
Differential Steering Wheel | Compact structure, cost-effective, easy maintenance | Light-duty AGVs (<1T), suitable for simple paths | Economical series, stable and reliable, quick deployment |
Omni-Directional Steering Wheel | 360° unrestricted steering, in-place rotation, significant advantage in narrow spaces | Medical facilities, cleanrooms, highly flexible production lines, scenarios requiring frequent directional adjustments | High-precision omni-directional module, meets demanding environmental requirements |
Servo Steering Wheel | Precise steering, rapid response, supports medium-to-high-speed continuous operation | Medium-to-heavy-duty AMRs (1~3T), high requirements for positioning accuracy and operational efficiency | Servo control series, excellent dynamic performance, energy-efficient |
Heavy-Duty Steering Wheel System | High torque output, excellent impact resistance and load-bearing capacity | Industrial heavy-duty transportation (3~5T), harsh working conditions, long-distance handling | EED heavy-duty integrated module, robust and durable, safety guaranteed |
AGV Steering Wheel Selection Guide: Three Core Considerations for Precise Matching
To select the appropriate steering wheel system for AGVs/AMRs, EED Transmission provides a detailed selection guide:
Precise Matching Based on Load Capacity
500kg~1000kg (Light-Duty): Recommend the light-duty central control steering wheel series, compact yet powerful, and agile.
1000kg~3000kg (Medium-to-Heavy-Duty): Suggest servo-controlled medium-to-heavy-duty steering wheels, strong load-bearing capacity, and precise positioning.
Over 3000kg (Ultra-Heavy-Duty): EED's heavy-duty integrated steering wheel module, specifically designed for large-scale industrial transportation, as solid as a mountain.
Optimized Configuration Based on Speed Requirements
Low-Speed Operation (<1m/s): Choose stepper steering + brushed motor for cost-effectiveness.
Medium-Speed Operation (1~2m/s): Adopt encoder feedback + servo system to ensure high precision and rapid response.
High-Speed Operation (>2m/s): EED's high-speed steering wheel group with overheating protection mechanism, safe and stable.
Customized Solutions Based on Working Conditions
Indoor Clean Environments: Recommend brushless motor + PU wheels, quiet and pollution-free, wear-resistant.
Wet/Oily Floors: EED offers IP65 protection level + rubber wheels, effectively preventing erosion.
Dusty/Large Temperature Difference Environments: EED's fully enclosed steering wheel unit, isolates dust and withstands temperature variations.
