ARO air motors by IR: Harnessing natural power for flexible alternatives to electricity

IR ARO air motors are available from Dobco.

Ingersoll Rand’s (IR) unmatched industrial tools and equipment are backed by more than 150 years of experience, and they are accessible to Canadian businesses through Dobco Equipment Ltd. The selection includes more than 200 types of ARO air motors, set apart by their ability to create power from the natural environment. Another key advantage of investing in ARO air motors: they serve users as a flexible alternative to electric power sources.

Instant starting, stopping, and reversing

ARO air motors by IR provide major benefits over their electrical counterparts. For instance, these efficient solutions come with a broad range of options, and the diverse spectrum of motors and their variations allow use in many different kinds of scenarios. The many advantages of ARO air motors include their infinitely variable torques and speeds, as well as their instant starting, stopping, and reversing. These air motors also never overheat or burn out, since they can be stalled or overloaded for long periods of time with no damage.

Customers also benefit from these motors’ cool running characteristics and excellent design flexibility, and they can use them safely in hazardous environments because of the absence of sparks and heat buildup. ARO air motors are relatively easy to maintain as long as the air supply is kept clean, dry, and lubricated. Extra gear reductions are feasible, as many of these motors are stackable.

The selection of ARO air motors ranges from 0.1 to 30 in horsepower, 23 to 26,000 revolutions per minute in speed, and 0.1 to 1,090 pound-feet. Other options – like reversible or non-reversible versions, geared and non-geared models, and piston or vane configurations – are all available from the Dobco inventory.

Dobco carries a wide-ranging product lineup that includes not just the ARO brand of equipment, but also many Zimmerman balancers and lifting devices, as a preferred supplier of high-quality IR industrial solutions. The IR-Dobco team serves businesses across Canada with assembly tools, torque reaction arms, construction tools, finishing tools, assembly tools, workstation accessories, trolleys and hoists, air winches, diaphragm and piston pumps, pneumatic cylinders and valves, and air-system components.
