Omni-wheels
Intuitive And Predictable Omni-directional Mobility
The OMNIA™ omni-wheel combines the simplicity and functionality of a fixed wheel with the mobility of a swivel caster without the need to turn or swivel the wheel.
The OMNIA™ omni-wheel uses patented production processes and designs that create the most rebust, reliable and adaptable omni-wheel, anywhere.
How Do OMNIA Omni-wheels Work?
The OMNIA™ wheel works by having the main wheel on an axel (allowing forward and backward motion). The 360° movement is achieved through the external rollers which provide multi-directional movement without any load shifting and unintentional directional change
Tough, Strong, Resilient
The corrosion resistant, all polymer design is pound for pound stronger than any other omni-wheel on the market and suitable to mission critical use as floor wheels, conveyor transfers or in robotics, AGVs and AMRs.
Directional Stability
Thanks to the fixed mounting position and dominant primary rolling direction, the OMNIA™ omni-wheel allows stable transfer of loads without detours or scrubbing.

Applications
Fluid Movement Of Items In Any Direction
Providing the robustness and ride quality of an industrial floor wheel, the patented polymer construction brings a new level of performance to conveyor rollers and transfer tables.
-
360° manoeuvrability.
-
High impact resistance and load capacity.
-
Less downtime due to lost rollers and maintenance.
-
Easy installation and integration with existing conveyor systems.
-
An alternative to a ball transfer unit.
High Performance Robot Omni-wheels
Built with durability and ride quality if an industrial floor wheel, the multi-directional OMNIA™ omni-wheel is a high performance robotic wheel. With a choice of polyurethane or Santoprene rollers for outstanding durability and traction.
-
Engineering grade polymer structure.
-
No internal steel inserts or pins.
-
Choice of polyurethane rollers for optimum durability.
-
Fully bushed rollers ensure smooth consistent motion.
-
Optional Satoprene rollers deliver greater traction and acceleration.
Ergonomic Manual Handling Trucks
Immediately Increase Productivity And Safety
The OMNIA™ wheel has been successfully integrated into the award winning Rotatruck™. The Rotatruck's unique design, fully supports loads and minimises the need to balance or pull back the load weight, reducing the risk of operator injury and improving productivity.
Proven to require:
