Combination of Wheel Materials

For Optimum Performance

The powered machines skates have a combination of two different wheel types for optimum performance. The mustard colored JUWAthan wheels have a slightly larger diameter than the black JUWAmid wheels. The weight of the load will compress the elastic yellow wheels and provide the traction with the floor. The back material is tough and hard and will not compress. It carries the load weight. The black material is also slick to touch so it allows the skate to turn easily.

1. JUWAthan+ Wheels

Main Characteristics

Patented material baked in oven onto core for toughness & elastic performance characteristics:
Overcomes obstacles easily (wheels mold around obstacles and keep rolling)
No stop, up & over action required like with other wheels
Spreads out under weight for large footprint resulting in low floor pressure, low break out & low rolling resistance, low push-pull force and low manpower requirement
Shock absorbent for impact loading
Non-floor damaging, non-marking
Reliable under toughest working conditions

Construction

CORE: Aluminum core on skates up to 12 tons (for lightweight handling) *Steel core on skates 20 tons and over
BEARINGS: Advanced high-strength precision ball bearings, ball bearings are sealed from both sides to protect against contamination of sand & dirt
OUTSIDE MATERIAL: JUWAthan+®, bonded into deep grooves in steel/aluminum core against sideways pressures
HARDENING: Wheels baked in oven for extended period of time

Chemical Resistability

Resistant: Acetylene, Beer, Butane, Carbonic Acid, Citrus Oil, Ferrous Sulphate, Gasoline, Glycerol, Ink, Methyl Alcohol, Mineral Oil, Nickel Sulphate, Oil, Ozone, Propane, Soda, Sodium Nitrate 10%, Vegetable Oil
Not Resistant: Acetaldehyde 40%, Acetone, Ammonia 20%, Bromine, Carbon Monoxide Hot, Chlorine, Hydraulic Fluid, Iodine, Water over 170°F
Conditional Resistant: Glycol, Saltwater, Turpentine, Waste water.

2. JUWAmid Wheels

Main Characteristics

Specially formulated material for optimal manoeuvrability:
Slick-to-touch material for spinning in place, with reduced "rubber" effect on floors for easy change of direction.
Precise turning without additional need for aligning by hand.
Low man-handling force required to push-pull in confined spaces

40+ Years of Proven Quality - Made in Germany since 1972

You've probably heard this statement before: "We promise the highest quality!" What exactly does this promise mean? In our case, it means that our products have been designed, developed, made, and relentlessly improved in Germany for more than 50 years. Technology A professional in-house engineering team constantly works to improve our products. We aim to enhance the ease of rolling, durability, and ease of use. This includes making tiny adjustments that may only refine the rolling or lifting friction by 0.1 percent, but these specific modifications accumulate over 50 years and have lead to vastly superior performing products! We often work on maximizing features that cannot be seen, like heat dissipation of temperature increase during rolling under huge turning forces. All aspects of our dollies, skates, and jacks are analyzed and re-engineered to make the products more efficient. Testing In our in-house testing ground, we test materials, parts, and product prototypes. Every new product is then evaluated by professional machinery movers in order to detect weak points in the prototypes or parts. Any discovered deficits are then fed back to engineering. Manufacturing Many companies move their production overseas, but JUNG carries on to produce products and components in Germany, and also invests in its manufacturing plant in Germany . We employ robots in the manufacturing to guarantee consistent quality among every single product. Even though other companies nowadays increasingly advertise 'engineered in Germany' - which in fact means built in another place, our products continue to be Made in Germany. Precision This means that every product and component is manufactured to precise dimensions and precise shape. It furthermore means that every product and component is precisely the same. When a product or component is exposed to the extraordinary forces of multiple tons of weight, any variance from the exact sizes could lead to product breakdowns. Case in point: If the diameter between balls in bearings differs even a bit, the forces will be unevenly distributed, which will sooner or later lead to failure. Another example: If the structure is warped even by 0.1 %, then under load, it twists, which may in the long run lead to cracks. This accuracy can only be attained through state-of-the-art precision manufacturing processes. Low-cost parts can lead to breakdowns, therefore we only employ high-quality components, and each product is exactly the same, and produced to exactly the same production standard. Conformance to Safety Principles Our products are put to the test to meet the most recent U.S. safety standard ASME B30.1. This standard specifies the load bearing valuation and safety capacity demanded by OSHA requirements. JUNG skates are really the only load moving skates in the United States that comply with these specifications. All jacks are tested to comply with ANSI B30.1. All skates can just be tested to capacities of 16 tons. Larger sized dollies and skates cannot be tested, but are made to comply with the same or higher safety standards. Because of its manufacturing process we can guarantee that each product is identical (and does not vary because it was cut, drilled, and welded by hand). Our products may well be issued with certificates of compliance or certificates of conformity (COC). Traceability by Serial Numbers Every product is marked with a serial number. This identifier is associated with the item's material, components, and manufacturing batches. Every part failure can be tracked back to the production batch to determine the underlying cause. This quality assurance program guarantees that deficiencies are wiped out over the years, so that the products get ever closer to absolutely no defects. No other machine skate and toe jack producer has implemented such an advanced quality assurance program. ISO The factory's total quality management system is certified to ISO 9001, which ascertains that customers are provided with continuously improved quality items, and that all products achieve statutory and regulatory prerequisites. More Expertise Provided to the Customer Over 40 years of working experience have provided us with a vast technical knowledge base in the field of heavy load moving. We strive to transfer this skills onto our customers, and aim to make this knowledge accessible on our internet site and over the phone. Customers can call us and discuss their problems with our technical engineers. We have confidence in supporting the potential customer before the purchase, providing support to the client during the operational phase, and providing assistance 10 years after the purchase date. Our Goal is to Help You in Any Possible Way! Combining all aspects, our products and customer service are supreme in quality over any other machine skate or toe jack on the market today.		Reliability
		Our products are used to lift and transport nuclear reactors and nuclear waste. To a small business this reliability and dependability is equally important as a product failure can be equally devastating. We supply the same product quality to small, medium and large organizations.
		The Results of Poor Quality
		The Results of Poor Quality Similar products sacrifice quality for cost. Copied parts are welded together into a product without any understanding, engineering, R&D and testing capabilities. Unreliable economical variety materials are used building the products, putting your equipment at risk for a break-down. The cheaper construction may result in frames bending from impact loading or axles snapping under load. Customers may constantly need to replace parts to keep the products in operation. Look-alike products may be advertised at higher capacities by eliminating or reducing safety capacities. Knock-offs claim higher capacity while exerting so much weight onto the same footprint that the wheels will drag behind instead of actually rolling.
		Our Definition of Load Capacity
		Our definition of Load Capacity goes further than just working safely below the break point: The more weight is exerted onto the skates's footprint, the higher the break-out & rolling resistance becomes until too much weight causes the wheels to drag behind, making changing directions impossible. The maximum capacity at which a wheel still turns is limited by the pressure exerted onto the footprint (aside from the component strength). That means a 2 ton rated wheel may stop turning at 1 ton of weight. Be assured that you maintain “easy rolling” and “easy steering” at maximum capacity with our dollies and skates.
		Honesty & Trustworthiness
		We aim to completely educate our customers about the advantages but also about the disadvantages, considerations and limitations of our products. We do not overpromise.
		Professional Engineering
		All products are designed by JUNG’s full time engineering team. Besides continuous improvements to functionality and strength, the products are optimized beyond what the customer expects. For example: The dollies and skates are designed for heat dissipation to counter possible weakening over time as high temperatures build up from the enormous friction forces. Internal technology is employed to protect against impact loading and design considerations are given to chemical and environmental resistability. German engineering means test and design for every detail.
		State of the Art Manufacturing and Materials
		The factory employs state of the art robots in the manufacturing process to assure that every product meets the same quality standards. All products are manufactured in house in Germany. Manufacturing process ISO 9001 certified.We don’t use standard commercial readily available materials. Our materials are specifically formulated, tested and engineered in JUNG’s research and development. Materials are engineered and custom produced for:High Strength Ease of Use Durability under the greatest strain Each component, steel frame and aluminum composition is built with state of the art technology.
		Quality Control
		All products are function tested after manufactured to guarantee zero defects. Our quality control department tracks all products and components by stamped-in serial numbers to trace any problem to assure zero re-occurrence. A certified quality management program assures a consistent level of quality.
		Warranty
		Each purchase is a one-time investment in superior quality; each product comes with a five year warranty, and is reliable even after a decade of use within its rated capacity.

JUNG vs. Look-Alikes

Why Choose JUNG? What Makes These Skates Unique? JUNG products have been copied many times. Those may look the same but certainly will not perform the same. Copies may drag over the surface instead of rolling. It may be close to impossible to change direction unless the cargo is lifted. It may damage the floor. It may be unmovable unless a towing vehicle drags the load rather than rolling it. The skate may fail terribly. It may need frequent repairing. The wheels need to be taken out and replaced very often. JUNG has obtained the technological know-how to develop, test, and manufacture machine skates in Germany during the last 50+ years, with one single goal in mind: To build a machine skate that truly works ... and works ... and works. Our skates will roll with ease, turn with ease, will leave floors intact, perform well under the toughest operating conditions, and have a long life span. They make the job much easier, much faster, and much more reliable for a very long time. As the original and finest skates in the industry, our products have been cloned into look-alikes. While the copied products may look the same - and can certainly move a load from place A to B - how easily and how reliably separates the good products from the bad. When compared with all the look-alikes, JUNG skates are the only ones designed, engineered, tested, certified, and permanently improved from the ground up - instead of being just imitated. They differentiate themselves from the look-alikes: By having a much higher breaking point Higher safety capacity (often times non-existing on look-alikes) Conforming to safety regulation (as compared to not conforming) Much better rolling and turning capabilities Better engineering employed under the hood Higher reliability and durability Longer life span Better quality parts and materials Making use of components constructed for the exact purpose Manufactured in an advanced production line Built by robots to guarantee consistent premium quality Incredibly high value as opposed to cost And with professional support and engineering assistance after the purchase JUNG products deliver excellence Made in Germany.

The speed can be increased seamlessly from zero to the maximum of 14 ft per minute under the full load. This is controlled via the joysticks.
Operating Noise Level: 80 db.

The Difference:

For over 40+ years JUNG skates, dollies and jacks have been incrementally improved and fine-tuned. Many companies have copied the same look but have been unsuccessful trying to copy the same performance and reliability.

JUNG air-powered machine skates are Made in Germany and offer the highest reliability, ease of use and functionality by employing superior technology, engineering, and manufacturing quality. Our equipment skates provide stable dependable support for load transport, roll & turn easily, and move loads safely even at the maximum rated capacity. These machinery skates work simply and reliably where others fail.

Uses:

Air propulsion is ideal in explosive environments where shop-air is readily available.
Air-powered machine skates are ideal for moving machines, equipment, and material from point A to point B during installation, maintenance, and relocation without the need for a towing vehicle.
Use machine skates for transporting loads on smooth concrete, asphalt, or steel plates.

Alert

In off-shore and marine environment, keep air-powered machine skates in non-corrosive storage when not in use to prevent air-motors from rusting and freezing-up over time.

Features:

When used in a standard configuration with a steerable front and straight-line rear skate, skates are freely steerable with the same maneuverability as a car: The front steers while the rear follows.
Skates can also drive backwards, using the air-powered skate on the rear of the load to push from behind.
3-point load moving systems are safer to use than traditional 4-point systems. Skates will not slip out under tugging and pushing forces.

Manufacturer:

Manufactured by JUNG
Made in Germany
For 40+ years

Included:

The air-powered skate comes with the skate, the control box, one air hose which connects the control box to the skate and one air hose to connect to the air-supply.
All straight-line rear skates include a set of two straight-line skates with connecting bar(s). Individual skates can be used without connecting bars.

Wheels:

Patented JUWAthan wheels (yellow) provide traction for propulsion while JUWAmid wheels (black) add additional load bearing capacity. This combination of wheel types provides the optimum ease of rolling, turning and breaking-out performance form standstill.
Wheels will not damage floors.
Fewer large diameter wheels - compared to using greater number of small wheels - maintains functionality with larger loads.
Wheel material has extremely long life and extremely low failure rating.
Sealed ball bearings protect against contamination from dirt for both inside and outside use.
Reliable under toughest working conditions.

Skate Sizes:

Wheel size and overall skate height increases with increased load bearing capacity.
