Custom Mecanum Wheels
Custom mecanum wheels are useful when a standard wheel cannot match the platform geometry, shaft interface, load condition or operating environment. The goal is not to customize every detail, but to identify which changes are necessary for reliable integration.
What can be customized
Common customization requests include bore size, keyway, mounting hole pattern, hub interface, wheel diameter, roller material and wheel body material. Some projects only need a custom hub, while others require a wheel-level review.
A good custom request starts with the constraints. Share the motor shaft, available space, target load, required wheel diameter and floor condition before confirming the design direction.
- Bore, shaft and keyway requirements
- Hub and bolt pattern changes
- Roller and material selection for floor conditions
How to avoid unnecessary customization
Custom parts can improve fit, but they also affect cost, lead time and replacement planning. When a standard wheel plus a suitable hub can solve the problem, that is often the better starting point.
MECAWHEEL can compare standard and custom options so the final configuration matches the mechanical requirement without adding complexity that does not improve the platform.
- Check standard models first
- Use hubs or couplings when possible
- Reserve wheel-level customization for real constraints
Information needed for review
For a practical recommendation, provide a drawing or basic dimensions of the motor shaft and mounting area. Also include load, quantity, desired diameter, speed and operating environment.
If the product will be used in a commercial machine, include replacement and maintenance expectations so the final configuration remains manageable after installation.
- Shaft diameter, keyway and fixing method
- Platform weight, payload and wheel count
- Quantity, timeline and operating environment

Frequently asked questions
Can MECAWHEEL make a custom bore or keyway?
Yes. Bore, keyway and hub interface can be reviewed when the required dimensions are provided.
Is a custom wheel always necessary?
No. Many projects can use a standard wheel with a suitable hub or coupling. Customization should solve a clear mechanical or performance requirement.
What files should I send?
A drawing, CAD file or dimension sketch of the shaft, hub area and available package space is helpful.
Need help selecting a wheel?
Send load, diameter, mounting and operating conditions. MECAWHEEL will help review a practical configuration.
