25.00-29/3.5 rim for Mining rim Underground Mining CAT AD45
Underground Mining:
The Caterpillar AD45 is a heavy-duty underground mining vehicle primarily used in mining operations. The wheel rims of this type of vehicle face extremely harsh operating environments, placing stringent demands on their design and manufacturing.
The AD45 is designed to carry a payload of approximately 45 tons (99,208 pounds), which, combined with the vehicle's own weight, creates a significant weight. The wheel rims must withstand this sustained high load and withstand the shocks and jolting associated with navigating the uneven, rocky terrain of underground mines. Any rim deformation or structural damage could result in a serious accident.
Underground mining environments are challenging, including sharp rocks, hard surfaces, and tight cornering. The AD45's wheel rims must:
High impact resistance: Withstands direct impact from sharp rocks, preventing cracking or deformation.
Excellent fatigue resistance: The wheel rim material must withstand repeated high loads and impacts without premature fatigue failure.
Wear resistance: The wheel rim surface and edges must exhibit excellent wear resistance in an abrasive environment filled with dust and rock debris. To ensure vehicle stability and safety, the rim dimensions must perfectly match the tire and wheel. The CAT AD45 typically uses large-size tires, such as 29.5 R29. The rim's diameter and width must be fully compatible with this tire type to ensure a secure fit on the bead.
The rim's center hole diameter, bolt hole location, and thread pitch must precisely match the CAT AD45's rim. Any deviation can result in an insecure installation, posing a safety hazard.
With over two decades of experience serving hundreds of OEMs worldwide, we have consistently designed and manufactured high-quality rims for a wide range of off-highway vehicles. Every manufacturing process adheres to rigorous quality inspection procedures to ensure that each rim meets international quality standards and customer requirements.
The rims used on the CAT AD45 are not ordinary industrial rims; they are specialized rims designed for the specific, harsh underground mining environment, characterized by high strength, precision, and durability. These stringent requirements are crucial to ensuring the safe, efficient, and reliable operation of this heavy-duty machine under extreme working conditions.
