Steel Wheel Rim Production Line

Steel Wheel Rim Production Line

We can design steel wheel rim production lines for the manufacturing of 10 to 54-inch rims. As a highly experienced wheel machinery supplier, we provide customers with both complete production lines and single machines for the production of wheel rims for passenger cars, trucks, wagons, buses, tractors, and construction vehicles.

Our technical design team will submit an optimized production plant layout solution based on the customer’s production technology and current site plan to help achieve standardized assembly line production of quality wheel rims.

Steel Wheel Rim Production Line Layout and Processes
Steel Wheel Rim Production Line
Advantages
  • Labor and Space Efficient Layout:
    depending on the required production technologies used for your wheel rims, we can design the line to complete all sorts of processes. From rim band coiling, butt welding, trimming, end-cutting, through flaring, roll-forming, expanding sizing, horizontal testing to valve hole punching, these wheel rim production lines feature a compact, efficient and labor-saving layout. This results in a finished production line that will not take up too much of the customer’s production area.
  • High Automation Degree and Low Rejection Rate:
    Taizhi steel wheel rim production lines adopt PLC control systems and a mechanical arm transport system to fulfil customer requirements, ensuring higher automation and thus improving the factory’s working efficiency, reducing labor intensity, and minimizing labor costs.
  • Remote Control and Maintenance:
    with remote control technology, PLC systems enable fast production data transmission, allowing for a convenient production process control. Remote control and maintenance are made easier as they are connected to the internet, which simplifies daily maintenance and inspection.
  • Various Selection:
    based on the variety, diameter and manufacturing technology of the wheel rims being produced, we can design and manufacture small, medium, and large wheel rim production lines. The processing range of the production line can be adjusted following customer demands. Please refer to the following table for more detailed information.
Small, middle-sized, large wheel rim production lines
No. Main Parameters Small rim line Middle-sized rim line Large rim line
1 Applications Passenger Cars Trucks, trailers, wagons, buses Construction vehicles, agricultural vehicles, tractors
2 Rim diameter range 13"~18" 17.5"~26" 20"~54"
3 Rim band width 3"~10" 5.5"~16" 7"~28"
4 Steel plate thickness 2~5mm ≤8mm ≤8mm
Operating mode

According to the manufacturing requirements submitted by the customer, Taizhi steel wheel rim production lines can be semi-automatic or fully automatic. The semi-automatic line requires 10-12 people to operate it, carrying out processes including loading, unloading, and machining operations. The fully automatic line, however, only requires 3 to 5 operators as it can perform automatic feeding, unloading, material conveying, and machining operations.

Manufacturing Technology Arrangement and Equipment Selection

The manufacturing technology used in steel wheel rim production lines is made more or less effective by the steel plates used by customers, which have been cut to length by suppliers. Based on customer demands, we will design the ideal plant layout and processing technologies. The table below summarizes conventional production technologies and equipment selection for steel wheel rim production for you to refer to.

16 Valve hole punching 100T valve hole punching press
17 Wheel disc and rim combined assembling 100T 4 post hydraulic press
18 Wheel disc and rim combined welding Assembly welder

Note:
1: the above technology and equipment selection is based on the wheel rim with a diameter of 17.5-26inches, a width of 5.5-16 inches and a thickness of 4-8mm, only for reference.
2: As for marking, coiling, and flattening processes, the customer can choose the marker and coiler which integrates all 3 processes to minimize labor costs and the amount of machinery needed, based on the required rim diameter and plate thickness.
