20m Riesenrad-Spezifikationen
The wheel is a steel structure with a rim, spokes and suspended cabins, mounted on support legs on concrete pads. Cabin type determines capacity and comfort, from open seated cabins for warm climates to semi enclosed cabins with better shading, and the LED lighting package makes the wheel the park’s night time focal point. Because the structure is compact, installation normally needs only a small crane and a prepared foundation rather than major civil works.
Where a Small Wheel Works Best
City parks, shopping mall plazas, Resorts, hotels and family entertainment complexes all suit a wheel in this size range. It gives a venue an attraction that is visible, photogenic and calm – a useful counterweight to thrill rides in a family park. Operators who later want a larger landmark can step up to our 30m Riesenrad using the same layout principles and the same operating routines.
Hütten, Comfort and Ride Duration
At this height the cabin decides the experience. Open cabins give the best view and suit dry climates, while semi enclosed or shaded cabins keep guests comfortable in tropical sun and light rain, extending the hours the wheel can run. Set the ride duration for the queue you expect – two or three rotations usually satisfies guests without slowing the line on a busy weekend.
Installation, Wind Load and Inspection
Even a small wheel needs the foundation designed against the soil report and the local wind load, because the rim acts as a sail when empty. The assembly sequence, bolt torque values and the electrical connection to the drive should come from the manufacturer’s drawings, and the inspection routine covers the Riesenrad centre bearing, cabin hangers, braking and the emergency lowering procedure.
