Air motors: to be integrated into applications in the packaging sector
An application case and Fiam solution
Features of motors for this sector:
- Stainless steel construction assembled with Domsel double-lip seals and featuring special sealants between the threaded connections. To ensure a high degree of protection from external factors
- Special galvanic treatment on inner workings to increase corrosion resistance where the use of lubricated compressed air is not an option
- Power range: 150 to 800 Watt
- No-load speed: from 40 to 15,000 rpm
- Torque values: from 1 to 50 Nm.
Below a case study
Manufacture of liquid filling and bottling machines and lines, where the process of screwing on the container caps is performed by motors required to have the following features:
- no electricity, which is essential when bottling flammable substances
- resistance to corrosive liquids, such as sulphuric acids and ammonia
- produced with output shaft customized to suit the accessory used to screw on the cap.
Our solution
15-, 20- and 28M-series motors with power ranging from 150 to 300 Watt, made with special seals capable of withstanding the most corrosive liquids. On request - and where suitably customized - they can be produced with a high protection rating; the motor is designed with a smooth output shaft for using any number of necessary accessories. The capping stage is performed by exploiting the air motor’s natural stall condition.
