Learn more about vane air motor at Industrial Motors
Air, or pneumatic, motors convert compressed air energy into mechanical work through linear or rotary motion. Several different designs are available, of which the vane, piston, and turbine motors are the most common. The vane air motor, also known as the rotary air motor, sees extensive use in handheld tools due to its lightweight construction […]
Air motors made heavy duty applications easy
Air motors have become standard in portable and fixed tool applications because of their versatility and efficiency. An air motor expands compressed air to perform the mechanical job. The rotating motion of the motor ultimately results in mechanical work being done by the compressed air. The output of an air motor is the product of […]
Air motors and stainless steel. A clean sweep for the food industry
Air motors are used for numerous applications in a variety of manufacturing industries. But perhaps nowhere else do the unique characteristics of air motor present such operational advantages as in the food industry. The food industry is notorious for being a wet environment with strict requirements regarding cleanliness and hygiene. Hence, manufacturing plants require regular […]
What are air motors used for?
Although it sounds like an illusion initially, air motors are the basis of the internal combustion engine as we know it today and contribute to its operation. In the internal combustion engine, a spark initiates fuel combustion, causing an explosion in the cylinder that moves the pistons. In the air engine, the expansion of compressed […]
