Provider of paint finishing
equipment and services for the
US industrial market,
Autoquip Inc. uses a piston air
motor rather than the
industry standard vane
motor in its systems
because it lends itself
so well to the company’s
proven flow control techniques. The
air motor is manufactured by UK
drive component specialist, Huco
Dynatork.
Autoquip’s Mike Elberson
comments: “By including the Huco
Dynatork product we can
substantially reduce compressed air
usage and ensure constant rpm of the
agitator blade.”
By including the Huco Dynatork
self-lubricating piston air motor,
Autoquip provides its customers
with paint spraying systems that
cost just $.85 (52p) per day to
run. The agitation system is
less cumbersome as the
air motor naturally
provides high torque at
low speed, negating the need
for a geared transmission. It is quieter
in operation and, thanks to its
dedicated controller, the air motor
also ensures process consistency.
