2
AIR MOTORS Devices which transform pneumatic energy into mechanical rotary movement Pneumatic power into shaft power Working elements operating on a compressed air Pressure is converted into torque Flow rate is converted into speed
3
WORKING
4
CATEGORISED ACCORDING TO DESIGN Piston motors Sliding vane motors Gear motors Turbines
5
RADIAL PISTON MOTOR Max. speed 5000rpm Power range 1.5 to 19kw
6
VANE MOTOR Speed can vary between 100 to 25000 rpm
7
GEAR MOTOR Speed range between 500 to 3000 rpm
8
TURBINE MOTOR
9
CHARECTARSTICS OF PNEUMATIC MOTOR Smooth regulation of speed and torque Small size (weight) Overload safe Insensitive to dust, water, heat, cold Explosion proof Large speed selection Maintenance minimal Direction of rotation easily reversed
10
VOLUMETRIC EFFICIENCY It is possible to slip forward from the high pressure port to the low pressure port through the clearance gaps this is called internal slippage. Actual flow rate = ideal flow rate + slippage Volumetric efficiency of the motor = actual flow rate/ideal flow rate
11
Cont…… Volumetric efficiency for radial piston motor Ideal flow rate= n*π/4*d 2 *l*N(r.p.s.) Where., n is no. of pistons D is diameter(in m*m) L is stroke length(in m) N is speed(r.p.s)
12
Applications Used in various pneumatic tools. Most popular are Hand held drill m/c Torque wrenches Also used in industries
