Omni wheel (Honolomic wheel)
Omni-directional wheels are unique as they are able to roll freely
in two directions. It has rollers mounted along its circumstance .
It can either roll like a normal wheel or roll sideway using the roll-
ers. Its rubber rollers offers great gripping. It is suited for use in
robotic, trolleys, transfer conveyor, shipping carts, luggage.
Benefits:
•Omni direction movement and rotation
•Easily direction control and tracking
•Make turning fast
•Precision placement— no offset movement
•Require no lubrication or field maintenance.
•Unique fixed orientation
•Simple & stable mounting options
•Direct tracking & directional control
•Superior load stability
Applications:
•Material handing equipment
•Shopping carts and luggage
•Freezer duty torlleys and carts
•Conveyor transfers pipe rollers
and other inverted applications
•Ball transfer table alternatives
•Robotics
•Mobile furniture
Single plate or double plate:
Single plate omni wheels have a single plate of passive rollers. Dual plate omni wheels have two plates
of passive rollers that are rotated slightly with respect to each other. Dual plate omni wheels have the
advantage of no "dead area" between rollers. That is, when a dual plate omni wheel is rolling, the two
plates continuously take turns bearing the load, resulting in smoother motion when compared to single
plate omni wheels. When used in a holonomic drive-train, the distance between the floor contact points
of any wheel pair changes each time a dual plate omni wheel switches plates while turning. This can
cause jerky motion while the base is rotating. For this reason, some prefer single plate omni wheels,
which do not have this problem.
