Danfoss launches cam lobe motor11 November 2022
Danfoss Power Solutions has released a cam lobe motor for construction machinery with chain drives such as skid steer loaders.
The CLM 8 S motor is the first product in the Thorx range.
The motor features two-speed technology, which is expected to deliver smoother speed changeover with a consistent, quick response time, even at low temperatures.
Chris Shrive, head of cam lobe motors at Danfoss, said: “We developed our Thorx cam lobe motors in close collaboration with our customers. The first thing they told us to do was reduce shock at speed changeover. We didn’t just meet their expectations; we set a new standard for smooth, predictable, fast changeover, regardless of oil temperature.”
Thorx motors utilise a brake design that is claimed to withstand 100 dynamic emergency stops throughout a machine’s lifetime.
