Guide Roller System – Type SFRS‑SV
At Hubner Australia, we represent Römer Fördertechnik GmbH (RFT Germany), offering the robust SFRS‑SV guide roller system—now available across Australia and New Zealand. Additionally, it includes an integrated damping unit and reinforced construction. Consequently, this system ensures smooth and reliable wheel guidance, particularly in high-speed and heavy-duty applications.
Key Features & Benefits
-
Patented damping unit – First and foremost, the SFRS‑SV includes a damping pad that reduces sudden impacts caused by rail misalignments. As a result, wheel and bearing wear are significantly decreased
-
Heavy-duty, double-wheel design – Moreover, it is available with 250 mm or 315 mm diameter rollers and can handle radial and axial forces thanks to additional support bearings
-
Built-in adjustability – Furthermore, spacer plates allow simple wear adjustment, and lateral alignment of up to ± 10 mm ensures optimum rail positioning
-
Single-piece axle with premium bearings – Also, the one-piece axle and axle suspension, along with premium spherical roller bearings, offer high stability and smooth operation
-
Maintenance-friendly features – Additionally, the system is easy to grease via lubrication nipples, and rollers can be replaced quickly, reducing downtime
-
Made in Germany quality – Finally, the entire system is designed and built in Germany, ensuring precision and long-term reliability
Technical Specifications
-
Load capacity: Static up to 300 kN (standard); reinforced version up to 400 kN
-
Roller diameter options: 250 mm and 315 mm
-
Lateral adjustability: ± 10 mm for precise rail guidance
Why Choose the SFRS‑SV at Your Facility?
Because the SFRS‑SV reduces wear and guides wheels accurately, it is especially suited for environments with high demands:
-
Cranes and trolley systems, where precise steering reduces maintenance.
-
Port and offshore systems, where heavy loads and wet conditions are common
-
Steel, mining, and heavy industry, where radial and axial loads must be managed .
-
Storage facilities and rail-bound structures like hall roofs or gates
-
Wind turbines, given their exposure and need for precise alignment .
Smooth Operation and Low Maintenance
Moreover, the integrated damping pads absorb impacts, while the rugged design protects bearings. Thus, the SFRS‑SV offers long service life with minimal upkeep. Additionally, its greaseable bearings and easy roller replacement mean fewer maintenance headaches and lower costs.
Customisation Options
To meet your facility’s needs, SFRS‑SV is available with:
-
Hardened guide rollers for extra durability
-
Mounting brackets, including those with an integrated bubble level for precise setup .
-
Optional protection plates, safeguarding the system from debris or weather exposure
