The rise of the caster wheel industry

Time：Jun 01,2022

Tracing the history of casters is quite a challenging task. However, after the invention of the wheel, transporting and moving objects became much easier. Yet, wheels could only run in a straight line, making it very difficult to change direction when moving heavy objects. Later, people invented wheels with steering mechanisms, which we now refer to as casters or swivel wheels. The emergence of casters revolutionized the way people transport, especially in moving objects, allowing for easy transportation and movement in any direction, greatly improving efficiency.

In modern times, with the rise of the Industrial Revolution, more and more equipment needed to be moved, leading to the widespread application of casters around the world. Almost every industry relies on casters. With the continuous development of technology, equipment has become more multifunctional and highly efficient, making casters an indispensable component. The development of casters has also become more specialized, evolving into a distinct industry.
