ARO air motors from IR: a flexible alternative to electric models

Dobco carries hundreds of models of ARO air motors.

Ingersoll Rand (IR) has been manufacturing many world-class industrial tools and equipment since the 19th Century, and today, these products are available in Canada through Dobco Equipment Ltd. The lineup includes more than 200 models of ARO air motors, distinguished by their ability to create power from the natural environment.

Another major benefit of investing in IR ARO air motors is that they serve users as a flexible alternative to electric power sources.

Instant starting, stopping, and reversing

ARO air motors by IR are efficient devices that offer considerable advantages over their electrical equivalents. The models available come with a wide variety of options. The diverse range of motors and their options allows businesses to use them in many different kinds of applications. Among the numerous benefits of these air motors are their infinitely variable speeds and torques, plus their instant starting, stopping, and reversing. And ARO air motors never overheat or burn out because users can stall or overload them for long periods of time without any damage.

Other major advantages of these units include their cool running characteristics and excellent design flexibility, and customers can operate them safety in hazardous environments due to the absence of sparks and heat buildup. ARO air motors are relatively simple to maintain as long as the air supply stays clean, dry, and lubricated. Since many of the devices are stackable, extra gear reductions are possible too.

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. Dobco can supply such options as reversible and non-reversible models, geared or non-geared varieties, and vane or piston configurations.

A preferred distributor of high-quality IR industrial solutions, Dobco carries a wide-ranging inventory that includes not only the ARO brand of solutions, but also many Zimmerman balancers and lifting devices. Businesses rely on the IR-Dobco partnership for assembly tools, torque reaction arms, construction tools, finishing tools, assembly tools, workstation accessories, hoists and trolleys, air winches, diaphragm and piston pumps, pneumatic cylinders and valves, and air-system components.
