Reliable feeding
Review surface structure against board, speed and contact pressure.
Lead edge
feed wheels
For lead edge feeders on corrugated machinery. Match replacement wheels to the original dimensions, hole positions and contact profile.
- Application
- Corrugated machinery feeders
- Dimensions
- Diameter, bore, width and holes
- Made to match
- Original wheel photos, drawing or sample
PRODUCT OVERVIEW
Built around feeding rhythm and drive interface
Lead edge feed wheels require consistent friction and dimensions so corrugated sheets start reliably. Wheel size, hole pattern and surface profile must match the original system.
01Machined to diameter, bore, width and hole pattern
02Drive holes, pin holes and machine-specific interfaces
03Surface friction profile confirmed from drawing or current part
04For lead-edge feeding units on corrugated machinery
Review around real machine data
Hole machining
Confirm center bore, pin holes, screw holes, keyway and hub.
Current-part match
Review a complete old wheel, dimension drawing and machine information.
Information to prepare before inquiry
| Dimensions | Outside diameter, bore, width and hub dimensions |
|---|---|
| Drive interface | Drive holes, pin holes, screw holes, keyway and pitch |
| Surface | Smooth, patterned, slotted or machine-specific profile |
| Application | Machine model, feeding position, board and operating speed |
| Inquiry data | Front/back photographs, dimensions, quantity and symptom description |
Identify the machine position before selecting the wheel.
Working position
Sun wheels provide compliant conveying and guiding; lead edge wheels work in the feeder. Similar appearance does not make them interchangeable.
Mounting structure
Confirm bore, bearing, hub, holes, pins and contact profile. Use a physical sample for complex geometry.
Material and hardness
Review board type, contact pressure and operating conditions. Colour alone does not identify hardness or material specification.
Six checks before ordering a replacement
Outer diameter
Measure the maximum diameter and note whether the original wheel is visibly worn.
Bore and width
Record shaft or bearing dimensions, overall width and contact-face width.
Surface profile
Photograph teeth, slots, grooves and openings from the front, side and back.
Mounting details
Confirm hubs, hole counts and spacing; include drive-pin diameter, height and position where fitted.
Application and quantity
Provide machine model, position, board type, known hardness and required quantity.
Operating symptoms
For slipping, marks or skew, include speed, pressure, wear pattern and photographs of the installed set.
Feed wheels during casting
This photograph records the casting stage. Finished diameter, bore, width and mounting geometry are confirmed from the original part, drawing or sample.
Colour does not establish hardness or final specification.
Frequently asked questions
Can you customize the profile, bore and hub?
Dimensions, contact profile, bearing or hub details can be reviewed from photographs, a drawing or a sample.
Is a softer wheel always better for reducing board marks?
No. Hardness, geometry, contact pressure, wear and diameter consistency across the set must be reviewed together.
Is a physical sample always required?
Clear measurements and photos may be enough for a simple structure. A sample is recommended for complex profiles or special mounting details.
Can I start with a trial order?
Trial suitability depends on dimensions, mold requirements and the production schedule.
