Mammoth Custom Casters are Caster Concepts' answer to unique and complex challenges. Whether the need is for a caster to roll over glass without cracking it, or to move very large machinery, or to swivel with exact precision, Caster Concepts will develop the solution to fit the application.
Each Mammoth Custom Caster is engineered and designed by engineers and built at one of the company's three plants in central Michigan. Caster Concepts versatile technology and flexible manufacturing processes feature laser cutters, polyurethane processing, brake processing and other computer numerical control (CNC) machinery.
Mammoth casters have been built for a variety of challenges:
- 3 ft. by 4 ft. wide casters with wheels measuring over 30 in. in diameter with an axle gear can be used on a motor-powered steel transporter carrying over 250,000 lb. of steel, plus the weight of the huge transporter
- Custom casters can carry over 600,000 lb. of coal, plus the 150,000-lb. turntable
- Dual-wheel casters engineered and designed for a track with a capacity of 50,000 lb. for each caster
- A unique swivel section was designed to achieve consistent smooth rotation for a finishing mandrel (each caster had a 35,000-lb. weight-capacity requirement)
- Six-tire turtle casters can disperse weight on a crane used for replacing huge glass solar panels
- Dual-wheel shock-absorbing ergonomic casters with a weight capacity of 14,000 lb. reduce push force by more than 60%
- Extreme cold or heat, moisture and chemicals
- Powered applications that required an axle for a chain, moving over 250,000 lb.
- Dual wheels casters for a track with a capacity of 50,000 lb. each caster
- Unique swivel section designed to achieve consistent smooth rotation for a finishing mandrel (each caster had a 35,000 lb. weight capacity requirement)
