What is a Omni wheel?

Omni Wheel is a special type of wheel that allows movement in any direction regardless of the wheel's rotation. Unlike standard wheels that transmit force in only one direction, omni wheels can transmit force in multiple directions. They are composed of rollers arranged at angles (typically 3 or 4 rollers placed 90 degrees apart), allowing for both linear motion and rotational movement simultaneously. This makes omni wheels ideal for robots and moving platforms.

Features:
・Multidirectional Movement: Can move forwards, backwards, left, right, and diagonally, offering high freedom of movement.
・Smooth Operation: Minimizes unnecessary rotation or slippage, enabling precise movement.
・High Precision: Using multiple omni wheels improves positioning accuracy for robots and vehicles.
・Efficient in Tight Spaces: Allows for efficient movement in narrow spaces, capable of both linear and rotational motion.

Application of Omni wheel

１．Robots: Used in multi-axis robots for efficient object transport and manipulation.
２．Mobile Platforms: Employed in vehicles and industrial robots needing precise movement in tight spaces.
３．AGVs (Automated Guided Vehicles): Used in warehouses and factories for transporting goods autonomously.
４．Robot Arms: Mounted on robotic arms to allow precise positioning and movement.
５．Material Handling: Used in automated factories and warehouses for smooth transport of materials.
