1. Choosing the material of wheels: First of all, considering the different conditions of using road surface, obstacles, residual substances (such as iron chips, grease), environmental conditions (such as high temperature, normal temperature or low temperature) and the weight that the wheels can bear, etc., to choose the suitable material of wheels. For example, rubber wheels can not resist acid, grease and chemicals, while super polyurethane wheels, high strength polyurethane wheels, nylon wheels, steel wheels and high temperature wheels can be applied to different special environments.

2. Calculate the load-bearing capacity: In order to calculate the load-carrying capacity required by various casters, it is necessary to know the weight of transport equipment, the maximum load and the number of single wheels and casters used. The load capacity required for a single wheel or caster is calculated as follows:
T=(E+Z)/M*N:
T = the weight of a single wheel or caster;
E = self-weight of transport equipment;
Z = maximum load;
M = the number of single wheels and casters used;
N = safety factor (about 1.3-1.5).
3. Determine the size of wheel diameter: Generally, the larger the wheel diameter, the easier to push, the greater the load capacity and the better the protection of the ground from damage. The choice of wheel diameter size should first consider the weight of load and the starting thrust of the carrier under load.
