Improve the cleanliness, safety and efficiency of your food processing applications with our versatile compressed air motors. Our stainless-steel and ATEX-certified air motors deliver high reliability so you can increase productivity.

Understanding the industry issues

Our decades of experience in industry means we understand the many challenges faced by food processing applications including:

  • The need to maintain the highest levels of hygiene, while reducing maintenance costs, and optimising production.
  • The requirement for highly reliable, oil-free equipment that will stand up to the rigours of the application, including the harsh chemicals used in washdown and cleaning regimes.
  • The demand for equipment that delivers a constant high performance and speed, and is highly energy-efficient, while being easy to maintain to minimise downtime. 

Benefits of air motors

Our compact pneumatic motors have been designed with the needs of food applications front of mind. They overcome these challenges and deliver many advantages:

  • Improve health and safety
    • Easy-to-clean, smooth surfaces with no cavities
    • Oil-, lubrication- and silicon-free composition
    • Stainless-steel and ATEX-certified 
  • Easy to use
    • A good power to weight ratio 
    • Lightweight, well-balanced and easy to handle
    • Quick mounting 
  • Increase productivity
    • Our air motors deliver high reliability and energy efficiency
    • Low installation costs, low operation cost and low maintenance costs

Applications

Our reliable air motors are suitable for wet and dry environments.

They are the perfect choice for a range of food processing applications including:

Actuating | Mixing | Blending | Agitating | Slicing | Shaving | Cleaning | Filling | Metering

Motors in action

In one case, compressed air motors are used to operate a cutting disc in a food processing plant

The need: The customer needed a reliable motor that was resistant to chemicals and cleaning agents and could operate without any oil. The motor also had to be small in size and lightweight with a high torque, and did not require reversible rotation. 

The solution: We recommended our compact M39-520-KSL motor which has a strong starting torque and operates reliably over a long life time. It features a stainless-steel body and is quick to mount. Additionally, it is oil-free, without any need for lubrication or grease to operate. 

The outcome: The customer has benefitted from high efficiency and been able to save space in their machine. The ATEX-certified motor also provides peace of mind to the customer that they are adhering to regulations and operating safely.

We had a previous positive experience with the CP representatives and we didn’t want to look around for other solutions, different brands, as we don’t know much about the air motors product line. So we wanted to work with a known brand, as we pay a lot of attention to our quality and building the Hafner brand as a top quality manufacturer.

I am glad, that the project was completed without any issues, everything was as planned and delivered on time. Together with the end-user, we think about this project as a success.
