If you don’t think of casters as a vital component in the overall scheme of materials handling, think again. Whether it’s a manufacturing facility or warehouse, everything rolls, said Mike Twitty, sales engineer for RWM Casters (Booth 5021).

Designed to handle loads from 15,000 pounds and up, the majority of RWM’s heavy-duty caster applications are found in manufacturing environments, including automotive and aerospace. But with such a large inventory of components, the company can customize a solution and assemble exactly what the customer needs–even if that means realizing improvements like noise reduction or improved ergonomics.
