Piston air motors
16 June 2014
According to Thorite, rugged reliability, slower running speeds, high starting torque and cost-saving air efficiency have made piston air motors the industry standard for applications such as paint stirring or food mixing. Hazardous areas are also prime sites for air motors as there is no danger of sparks.

Thorite now stocks and supplies a full range of Huco Dynatork piston air motors. Thorite selected these motors as they provide the most efficient method of converting the energy stored in compressed air into motion, for the specific applications to which the air motor's characteristics are best suited.
Piston air motors stop and start with no ill effects and this ability makes them ideal for constant stop/start duties under load, perfect for the hazardous or sensitive environments found in hydrocarbon engineering, paper converting, wood working, food processing and pharmaceutical industries.
