Powerful solution for the heaviest loads

The Swedish manufacturer JBM Company Kalmar AB is a leading provider of customised solutions in the development, design and manufacture of industrial vehicles and special transport equipment. Since its foundation, the company has made a name for itself through innovative technologies and a strong customer focus. In particular, JBM offers customised products for demanding applications in various industrial sectors, including logistics, construction and heavy industry. With the newly developed CRH-110 cable reel handler, JBM is setting new standards in intralogistics: this advanced solution optimises the transport and handling of cable reels, improves efficiency and at the same time contributes to a safe and ergonomic working environment.

The CRH-110 transports large cable reels both inside and outside production, often on uneven terrain. The enormous load of up to 110 tonnes places high demands on the load capacity of the wheels used. At the same time, the customer required the wheels to be gentle on the ground and their diameter to fit into the limited installation space of the chassis.

With the GB 1000/160PR heavy-duty wheel, Blickle has the optimum solution in its standard range to meet the high requirements. The Blickle Besthane polyurethane tread has a high dynamic load capacity and is good floor surface preservation and is abrasion-resistant at the same time. Thanks to its very low rolling resistance, the CRH-110 is easy to manoeuvre even under maximum load. To ensure easy installation, the wheels are already equipped with spherical roller bearings. The Blickle solution offers JBM Company Kalmar AB numerous advantages: The delivery of a standard product reduces development time and costs. In addition, the chassis remains slim thanks to the compact design of the wheels. The high-quality tread combined with a robust cast wheel centre guarantees a long service life, even in demanding environmental conditions.
