Internal tubing provides robust air
motors
The floating piston design of the Huco Dynatork air motor transmits the maximum torque on start-up, which can be adjusted with standard air flow valves.
Huco Dynatork piston air motors suit low-speed stop/start applications under load They suit use in hazardous or sensitive environments such as hydrocarbon engineering, paint manufacture, paper conversion, woodworking and food processing

Coaxial screw rail saves space and cuts costs
Huco's new, integrated lead screw and rail system - Kerk 'S' Rail - is a boon for designers looking for space savings.
On the original design the pneumatic tubing was external to housing, making it vulnerable to damage and more sensitive to temperature extremes.
The pneumatic porting on the latest models is now internal, making them far more robust.
Huco Dynatork has also recessed the fasteners to reduce potential bug traps to the benefit of hygiene conscious sectors.
Because of their exceptionally clean operation, availability with nonlube air supply and corrosion resistance these air motors are ideal for the food and pharmaceutical production environments.
The floating piston design of the Huco Dynatork air motor transmits the maximum torque on start-up, which can be adjusted with standard air flow valves.
Pulse counters can be specified to allow programming of direction of rotation, speed and number of revolutions and even fractions of a revolution.
This means the motors can provide near-instant stop/start/reversal and drive under load, with characteristics similar to those of a stepper motor.
These qualities are complemented by air consumption only a fraction of that used by vane motor designs, providing significant cost savings, even at maximum torque.
The new Huco Dynatork air motors are available with maximum torques up to 16Nm (or 550Nm with a gearbox).
Models are available in aluminium or acetal and may be specified with a choice of motors and gearboxes or leadscrews. Request a free brochure from Huco Dynatork ...
