Air motors: to be integrated into applications in the construction sector
An application case and Fiam solution
Features of motors for this sector:
- Plenty of scope for customizing in terms of size
- Compact motors with lever start, made from high-strength steel
- 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 90 Nm.
Below a case study
Manufacture of power floats and equipment for finishing concrete panels. The air motor is to be applied to a float for smoothing concrete on building sites. The motor has to be:
- Rugged and able to withstand frequent stress, such as repeated starts
- Impact resistant
- Able to handle water, dust and residues.
Our solution
MO motor, with power ranging from 600 to 800 Watt, featuring custom-designed geometries to fit into the customer’s floats. The seals required special attention to ensure the inner workings were protected from dust and external factors.
