Ball transfer units – the ideal solution for moving goods

2023-03-21

Ball transfer units are an indispensable part of many industries and a brilliant aid when it comes to handling and rotating goods in all directions.

Each unit consists of one large ball rolling on many smaller balls enclosed in a half-spherical housing or recirculating system. These significantly reduce friction, making it possible to move heavy objects in any direction with minimal force. Often mounted in tabletops or similar surfaces, they make handling heavy loads easier and help prevent workplace injuries.

Ball transfer units are used to load or feed machines, replace wheels in handling systems, or serve as an alternative to slide plates.
