Detail

This Mecanum wheel incorporates a damping component, based on the use of flexrings mounted on each individual roller. Flexrings are flexible structures that absorb vibrations generated by the rollers' contact with the rolling surface. This adaptation brings multiple benefits, especially for precision applications such as industrial robots or autonomous vehicles operating in vibration-prone environments or on uneven surfaces.
