Air Motor Radial Piston Type

Air Motor Radial Piston Type
UTAM4 Series

Taiyo America offers an Radial Piston Type Air Motor with the UTAM4 Series. They are compact size, light in weight and speed can easily be controlled by flow adjustment from 100 rpm to Max. speed. Flange mounting, and foot mounting are available to give flexibility to cylinder location in your machine. With Taiyo America UTAM4 Series radial piston type air motor, customers can enjoy the benefit of better speed control at low speeds and better stopping characteristics than vane type motors.

At Taiyo America, every UTAM4 Radial Piston Type Air Motor is individually tested before leaving our plant to assure proper performance with leak free operation, and comes with an 18-month warranty.

Features/Benefits

  • Speed could be easily controlled by flow adjustment from 100 r.p.m. up to Max. speed.
  • Compact size, light in weight and simple in structure are features of all models.
  • Taiyo air motors can be mounted any way you like – Flange mounting and foot mounting are available.

Advantages

  • Radial piston type air motors have more positive start¬ing, better speed control at low speeds, and slightly better stopping characteristics than vane motors.
  • In addition, they have slightly lower air consumption at the lower speeds.
  • Output torque is developed by pressure acting on pistons; there are 3 or 5 pistons per motor.
  • Power developed by piston motors increases with inlet pressure, number of pistons, piston area, stroke and speed.
  • Primary factor limiting speed in a piston motor is the inertia of the moving parts.
  • Radial piston type air motors are basically low-speed devices capable of reaching free speeds up to 1500 rpm.
  • They can lug heavy loads at all speeds and are particularly adaptable to applications requiring high starting torque and slow speed.
