🛠️ Primary Structural Material: High-Strength Structural Steel
This is the core material for the orbital platform’s frame and load-bearing components. It offers excellent fatigue resistance and mechanical strength, able to withstand the repeated dynamic forces generated by the ride’s swinging and rotational motions. Low-alloy high-strength steel grades are preferred for their balance of durability and cost-effectiveness, meeting global amusement ride safety certification requirements.
✅ Wear-Resistant Liner Materials
The contact surfaces between the orbital platform and its rotating or sliding components are lined with high-manganese steel or polyurethane materials. These materials reduce friction and wear during long-term operation, extending the platform’s service life while minimizing operational noise and vibration.
🛡️ Safety & Protective Materials
Non-slip rubber or textured steel plates are used for the platform’s passenger standing areas to prevent slips and falls. The platform’s peripheral safety barriers are typically made of galvanized steel to resist corrosion from outdoor weather conditions, ensuring long-term structural integrity.
