Machine Moving Skate

Q: Should I use a 3-point or 4-point skate configuration for my machine?

For maximum stability on slightly uneven floors, a 3-point system is highly recommended. It ensures all wheels maintain contact with the ground like a tripod. Use a 4-point system only on perfectly level surfaces for exceptionally long or wide loads.

Q: What is the difference between Fixed Skates and Swivel Skates?

Fixed Skates move only in a straight line for tracking stability, while Swivel (Steerable) Skates feature a 360-degree rotating turntable and handle, allowing for precise navigation and steering in tight spaces.

Q: How do I calculate the required capacity for a set of skates?

Always choose a skate set where the total capacity exceeds the machine's weight by 20-30%. This provides a safety margin for uneven weight distribution during the move.

Q: Which wheel material is best for my warehouse floor?

Nylon or Polyurethane wheels are best for smooth, epoxy-coated, or tiled floors as they prevent scratches. Steel rollers are ideal for rough concrete or environments with metal shavings due to their extreme durability.

Q: Why is the 'Low Profile' design of Komada skates important?

A low profile design keeps the machine's center of gravity close to the ground, minimizing the risk of tipping over and requiring less jacking height for positioning.

Q: How do I ensure the machine doesn't slide off the skates?

Komada skates feature anti-slip rubber surfaces on the platforms. Ensure the machine base is clean and centered on the skate for maximum grip and security.

Q: What safety precautions should I take before moving a 10-ton machine?

Clear the path of all debris, use a proper industrial toe jack for lifting, and ensure the floor can handle the high point loads created by the small rollers.

Q: Why are my skates becoming difficult to push under load?

This is often caused by debris in the bearings or wheel damage from overloading. Regularly clean the rollers and lubricate bearings to maintain low-friction performance.

Q: Are replacement rollers available for Komada Moving Skates?

Yes, we provide full after-sales support including replacement rollers and bearings. Our skates also come with a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects.

Why Choose Us

Frequently Asked Questions

Should I use a 3-point or 4-point skate configuration for my machine?

Choosing Between 3-Point and 4-Point Systems

For maximum stability on slightly uneven floors, a 3-point system (one steerable skate in front, two fixed skates at the back) is highly recommended. It acts like a tripod, ensuring all wheels maintain contact with the ground. Use a 4-point system only on perfectly level surfaces for exceptionally long or wide loads.

What is the difference between Fixed Skates and Swivel Skates?

Understanding Fixed vs. Swivel (Steerable) Skates

Fixed Skates (like our CRM series) move only in a straight line, providing high tracking stability. Swivel Skates (Steerable series) feature a 360-degree rotating turntable and a handle, allowing you to navigate corners and position machinery with precision in tight spaces.

How do I calculate the required capacity for a set of skates?

Load Capacity Safety Margin

Always choose a set where the combined capacity exceeds your machine’s weight by at least 20-30%. This safety margin accounts for uneven weight distribution, where one skate might momentarily carry more load than others during the move.

Which wheel material is best for my warehouse floor?

Nylon vs. Steel vs. Polyurethane Wheels

Nylon/PU Wheels: Best for smooth, epoxy-coated, or tiled floors as they prevent scratches and run quietly.
Steel Rollers: Ideal for rough concrete or environments with metal shavings, as they are extremely durable and won’t “flat-spot” under immense pressure.

Why is the "Low Profile" design of Komada skates important?

Low Profile Advantage for Heavy Lifting

A lower height (Low Profile) keeps the machine’s center of gravity as close to the ground as possible. This drastically reduces the risk of the machine tipping over during transport and requires less jacking height to position the skates.

How do I ensure the machine doesn't slide off the skates?

Preventing Load Slippage

Our skates feature anti-slip rubber surfaces on the loading platforms. For added security, ensure the contact point is clean and oil-free. On very smooth surfaces, some riggers use high-friction mats or temporary adhesive between the machine and the skate.

What safety precautions should I take before moving a 10-ton machine?

Essential Pre-Move Safety Checklist

Clear the Path: Even a small pebble can stop a loaded skate abruptly. 2. Use a Toe Jack: Always use a proper industrial toe jack to lift the machine safely. 3. Check Floor Capacity: Ensure your floor can handle the “point load” created by the small rollers.

Why are my skates becoming difficult to push under load?

Troubleshooting "Hard to Roll" Issues

This is usually due to debris in the bearings or flat-spots on the wheels from overloading. Regularly clean the rollers and lubricate the internal bearings to ensure the “low-friction” performance Komada is known for.

Are replacement rollers available for Komada Moving Skates?

Warranty and Component Replacement

Yes. We provide full after-sales support, including replacement rollers and bearings. All our Machine Moving Skates come with a 12-month warranty against manufacturing defects, ensuring your investment is protected.
