General Specifications


	Type / Applications
	Your choices are...
	Gerotor Air Motors		Gerotor air motors deliver high torque at low speed without additional gearing. When coupled with a 2-stage orbital planetary gear train, gerotor power elements provide torque at speeds down to 20 rpm. These motors are well-suited for hazardous-environment applications where relatively high torque is needed in limited space.
	Milling Motors		Milling motors are motors used for milling.
	Motor / Engine Starters		An air motor can be used as a starter for large diesel, gas turbines, or electric motors. Air motors used to start engines, turbines, or other rotary equipment. Air starters are flexible, efficient alternatives to electric sources. They create sheer power from the natural environment and are perfect for a wide range of industrial, marine, and automotive applications.
	Piston Motors		Piston air motors are used in applications requiring high power, high starting torque, and accurate speed control at low speeds.
	Turbine Motors		Efficiency of an air motor is defined as the ratio of the actual power output to the theoretical power available from the compressed air for the expansion ratio at which the machine is operating. Turbines convert pneumatic power to mechanical power at about 65%-to-75% efficiency. Turbine efficiency is higher than other air motors because sliding contact of parts does not occur to cause internal friction. As a result, there is no need for extensive lubrication. The absence of lubricating oil dramatically improves cold-weather performance.
	Vane Motors		Rotary vane motors normally are used in applications requiring low-to-medium power outputs. Simple and compact vane motors most often drive portable power tools, but certainly are used in a host of mixing, driving, turning, and pulling applications as well.
	Other		Other unlisted types

	Parallel / Offset Output		Gearhead output shaft is parallel to, but offset from, motor rotation axis.
	Right-angle Output		Gearhead output is at right angles to motor rotation axis, either intersecting or non-intersecting. This is usually achieved with a worm or bevel gear set.
	Other Geared Output		Oblique or unlisted output alignment.
	Search Logic:		All products with ANY of the selected attributes will be returned as matches. Leaving all boxes unchecked will not limit the search criteria for this question; products with all attribute options will be returned as matches.
