Our Wheels

OTR Australia works with all customers to ensure their wheels and tyres meet the highest quality standards.

Visual Inspection
To prepare the rim for non-destructive testing, we carry out a visual inspection to determine any obvious damage that would prohibit the rim from re-certification.

Sandblasting
Once visually inspected and no obvious damage has been identified, the rims are sandblasted to bring them back to bare metal so they can undergo uninterrupted non-destructive testing.

Non-Destructive Testing
Once the rim has been returned to bare metal, the non-destructive testing technicians examine the properties of the rim materials to identify any corrosion, cracks, burrs and other imperfections that might prohibit the rim from performing at optimal capacity. The two most frequently utilised methods of non-destructive testing are Ultrasonic Testing and Magnetic Particle Testing.

Section Replacement
We carry substantial wheel section stock, ranging from 33” through to 63”, allowing for the replacement of wheel sections if major indications are detected throughout the NDT process.

Dressing
Once all major repairs have been completed, any minor hand repairs are undertaken to improve the appearance of the wheel and prepare for painting.

Painting
The final stage of the certification process is painting. Once the rim has been dressed, and removed of any slight imperfections, the wheel is painted to OEM specification, tagged or stamped with identification information as per the customer’s request, and palletised, ready to return.

Products We Build

OTR Australia designs and manufactures wheels & rims for a variety of machines throughout various industries. Sometimes the OE spec design product just won’t stand up to the harsh conditions of use in Australia. This is what sets OTR Australia apart from others, the OTR team can design, engineer & manufacture a more durable product or pending the customers’ requirement, completely re-engineer a product to ensure it meets the working conditions and environment of the customer needs. Custom product design starts with a validation of the current product, transferring this information through our engineering team to ensure we capture the reasons, failure modes and a new design criteria that ensure the new product design exceeds the customer’s expectation.

Some of these customer designs include:

  • Quick Change Rims designed to increase up-time of machine availability, and improved safety for tyre servicemen. This is done via the reduction in actual wheel/rim changes.
  • Lightweight wheels reduce wheel weight to give a greater payload advantage.
  • Custom design heavy-duty XHD loader wheels. Increased durability of loader wheels via improved design ensures wheels can be fitted for longer on a production machine.
  • Belly Dumpers custom design trailer wheels allow a larger tyre to be fitted to the rear axle of the belly dumper trailer unit, creating a 13% payload improvement.
  • Specific rim design cross-fitting new tyre sizes & designs onto older machine fitments. For example, fitting 50/80R57 Michelin XDR fitments to Komatsu 830E truck.
  • Stud Pusher Tooling – stud removal tool used to improve safety for the tyre servicemen
  • Rim Stands – used for pre-seating components in the tyre prior to truck fitment. OTR Australia-designed Rim Stands have safety features that include: Non-slip standing platforms, fixed air lines and fixed legs with ground mounting plates.
  • Transport Frames – OTR Australia load-rated Transport Frames allow tyre servicemen to pack and load wheels/rims on transport frames specifically designed to carry your rims.
  • Tyre Inspection Stands – OTR Tyre Inspection Stands are load rated, engineered and certified. Features include forklift pockets for movability, inhibitor pod mounts, lube bucket holders and fall back arrestors.
  • Profile Gauges – OTR has specific profile gauges for checking wheel/rim profiles. These profile gauges are used to identify wheel/rim and their correct components prior to fitment.

Our products, both standard and custom designed, have been used by many of our customers over the years including Caterpillar, Rio Tinto’s Iron Operations, Glencore, BHP, FMG, Thiess, BIS Industries and BGC to name a few. These companies have come to OTR looking for custom site-specific solutions – and each time OTR Australia have met the challenge.
