Vane motors. figure 2. air flows through the vane motor body to end plates and then to open kidney-shaped ports, where it enters rotor slots and pushes vanes against the housing. air then passes into the main motor chamber, through holes drilled in the rotor to directly pressurize exposed portions of vanes, and turn the rotor.
Air motors gast air motors are designed to thrive in harsher environments. their lubrication protects internal components and helps carry away smaller particulate, which can evade filtration, while also providing heat dissipation benefits.
Non-lubricated air motors no lubrication is necessary for these corrosion resistant air motors. hub and foot mounting options are available and the units can be mounted in any plane.
Mounting options for air motors include face mount, flange mount, nose mount, and foot mount. common materials of construction include aluminum, cast iron, steel, stainless steel, and plastic. features commonly found on air motors are non-lubricated construction, reversible, and speed feedback or control.
