The Benefits of Integrating DRS Wheel Blocks with H-Beam Structures
Shiyang’s Demag-type travel wheel blocks are specifically designed for seamless integration with H-shaped steel beams, commonly used in crane end carriages and gantry cranes.
1. Modular & Compact Design
The modular nature of the DRS system allows for a compact fit within H-beam structures, saving valuable space while maintaining structural integrity.
2. Rapid Installation
The side-mounting configuration simplifies the alignment process, significantly reducing assembly time on pre-welded or pre-drilled beam flanges.
3. Superior Load Distribution
These wheel blocks are engineered to distribute heavy crane loads evenly across the rails, preventing beam deformation and ensuring a longer lifespan for the entire crane system.
4. Low Maintenance & Smooth Travel
Utilizing high-grade EN-GJS-700-2 material and precision machining, Shiyang wheels offer low-friction travel and high endurance under repetitive stress.
