| Timex India is an ISO 9001:2000 certified, product manufacturing company, which has been involved, specifically, in the process of manufacturing, prototyping, and production of castor wheels, since 1995. The company is located in Gurgaon, India, and manufactures castor wheels for supporting and moving weights, which range from 40 Kg to 3000 Kg. Basically, a castor is a wheel type, which is mounted with an offset steering pivot so that the wheel automatically swivels to align its main body with the direction along which it is pushed or pulled. The ball bearings present in the receptacle, above the main body - the castor wheel assembly - enables unrestricted rotational motion of the wheels (wheels move about their own axis, while the pivot moves about its own axis) through 360 degrees. This is a motion with two degrees of freedom, and can be analyzed using both right-handed and left handed cylindrical co-ordinated systems. |

| Castor wheels are employed basically, to reduce friction, and hence, the force needed to move a load. It is due to the fact that rolling supports do not support horizontal forces in ideal cases. This saves energy and also reduces the wear and tear of surfaces in contact because the coefficient of rolling friction is always less than that of limiting friction.
Castor wheels India, and trolley wheels India, have been used in domestic market, and have also been exported.
