Spannrad mit Führungen KOMATSU PC40
Track tensioning wheel. Width of the inner guiding flange 38mm complete with shaft.
Idler wheels ITR for mini-excavators and compact loaders are manufactured using the latest automated design and production processes.
ITR Tensioning Wheel for KOMATSU PC40
They are made from selected high-quality steel alloys and appropriately heat-treated to ensure exceptional field performance in extreme working conditions. Idler wheels ITR are assembled using state-of-the-art seals and bearing designs, produced according to the most rigorous specifications in the industry. The assembly is carried out on assembly lines with an automatic oil filling process. Idler wheels can be selected in various configurations:
- Tensioning wheel shell
- Tensioning wheel with sleeve and shaft
- Tensioning wheel with brackets
- Tensioning wheel with fork
- Tensioning wheel with tensioner
Quality of ITR Tensioning Wheels
The range of tensioning wheels covers equipment from mini-excavators to mining machines from KUBOTA® K008 (machine operating weight 0.9 tons) to KOMATSU® D475 A5 (machine operating weight 101 tons) Engineering and R&D departments are located in Italy, South Korea, and China and collaborate to combine know-how, technology, and development capabilities. Engineering departments located in each manufacturing facility have specific knowledge about locally produced components, while the headquarters Italian Engineering coordinates all activities.
Functionality of ITR Tensioning Wheels
The function of the tensioning wheel is to support the track chain and guide it so that it is properly wound. Additionally, the tensioning wheel and tensioner work together to maintain a specific degree of track tension. The most important controllable factor in undercarriage wear is correct chain tension. The correct deflection for all conventional tracks is approximately 50mm (+-5mm). For example, the track on an 80-horsepower machine with a deflection of 12mm will have a tension value of 2540 kg when measured at the track tensioner. The same machine with the recommended deflection of 50mm will have a tension value of 362 kg. An excessively tight track increases pressure, causing greater wear on the track bushings when in contact with the drive wheel teeth and in the chain-tensioning wheel-roller contact. The tread hardness equal to or greater than the chain links, running rollers, and support rollers ensures resistance to impacts and balanced durability. Material type: SCMn3A, hardening 50-55 HRC. Lifetime lubrication to minimize maintenance.
