Heavy-Duty Crane Wheel Forged by Open Die Process

The Heavy-Duty Crane Wheel Forged by Open Die Process is designed to perform in extreme working conditions where high loads, impact, and continuous operation are present. Manufactured through open die forging, this wheel features superior internal integrity, refined grain structure, and exceptional mechanical strength — making it ideal for heavy industrial lifting systems.

These are the main inspection equipments: 

Key Features

• Forging Method: Open die forging ensures directional grain flow and structural uniformity for enhanced fatigue resistance.

• Material Options: Available in alloy steel (42CrMo, 4140) or carbon steel (45#, 1045) based on working conditions.

• Load Capacity: Built for extreme-duty applications with high tensile and compressive load demands.

• Heat Treatment: Optional normalizing, quenching & tempering, or stress relief to improve mechanical performance and dimensional stability.

• Machining Condition: Supplied as rough machined or fully machined depending on customer requirements.

Application Areas

This heavy-duty forged crane wheel is widely applied in:

• Gantry Cranes and Overhead Cranes

• Port and Container Handling Systems

• Steel Mills and Rolling Equipment

• Mining Transportation Systems

• Heavy Equipment Transfer Platforms

The steel forgings production flow:

raw material inspection → unloading → inspection → preheating → forging → heat treatment → inspection → rough machining → non-destructive testing → inspection → packaging → delivery.
