A Czech spirits manufacturer entrusted PTM mechatronics GmbH with a particularly tricky task: stirring alcohol in a 20,000 liter container. In addition to the huge volume, there were two additional challenges. Firstly, the agitator was not to stir vertically in the container, as is usually the case in standard tasks, but horizontally at the bottom of the container. In addition [...]
Report from our partner Maier Heidenheim on the joint project: Stirred and saved PTM mechatronics has developed an efficient solution for companies that have to stir liquids in a large number of containers under Atex conditions. Instead of one agitator per container, a movable air motor is installed that grips the individual agitator rods. This cost-saving innovation was made possible by the [...]
Report on the collaboration between our customer Piper GmbH and PTM mechatronics: Stirring is a fundamental process in various industrial processes: Not only paints, varnishes and other coating materials, but also food and medicines are stirred during production. In tricky special applications, conventional agitators from series production reach their limits. A special solution is then required, [...]
A paint kitchen is a colorful but sometimes dangerous place. Because vapors can escape from paints and varnishes and form explosive mixtures, strict explosion protection regulations apply. The Nuremberg-based company DETE Dr. Tettenborn GmbH has developed a compact siphon that enables clean and safe paint supply - the DeLift. The agitator technology of the successful Franconian model [...]
An Austrian customer, a manufacturer of fiber composites for wind turbines, sporting goods, industry and the aircraft industry, uses our IP68 waterproof air motors as a safety system for its piping system. Our customer requires a temperature of 230 degrees for processing the composite materials. To do this, he uses oil heated to 230 degrees. He sends this through his production process via pipes. Our powerful radial piston motors are used to keep the pipe system [...]
From April 17 to 20, 2018, we presented our powerful air motors and energy-efficient eco-Series ATEX agitator technology to trade fair visitors. Visitors to our stand were particularly interested in our uncomplicated complete solutions with agitators, traverses and lifting stations - all ATEX-certified. They were also impressed by the energy efficiency of our air motors, which also form the basis of our agitator technology. We were able to [...]
A well-known Czech manufacturer of printing machines stirs nine different colors in each of its machines. Previously, he used vane motors with a small propeller as an agitator and a very high speed. Then he became aware of our air motors, which consume up to 90% less compressed air than the old vane motors, despite their very high performance. He was also [...]
Our customer is a Czech special machine manufacturer. Its core business is the construction of machines for the automatic capping of bottles and jars in the food industry. In our case, this involved the capping of pickle jars. He approached us with the request to replace the servomotors previously used with PTM radial piston motors. Why PTM air motors? The background to his [...]
The Human Engineering Research Laboratories at the University of Pittsburgh developed and built a waterproof wheelchair that is powered exclusively by compressed air. The university opted for the air motor from PTM mechatronics GmbH due to its IP68 watertight design. This means that the motor can be completely submerged under water.
