Hydraulic Motors
Typical Applications
Wheel Motors – drive mobile equipment wheels (skid steers, tractors, lifts)
Fan Drives – hydraulic fan drives (engine cooling, industrial equipment, drive train cooling,
gen sets, grain driers)
Industrial Machinery – (conveyers, machine tools, cutters, cranes, augers, winches)
Agricultural Equipment – Harvesters, Trenchers, Lawn Mowers, Forestry Equipment

Hydraulic Motors
Fixed Positive Displacement Motors
Fixed Displacement Geroter / Geroler Motors
Spool valve, disc valve & valve in star types
Low speed and high torque capability
Works on the “Orbit Principle” – star, drive and output shaft
Gerotor & Geroler have similar performance characteristics for equal frame sizes. In the Geroler type,
the drive gear rides on roller bearings in the star for reduced friction, improved mechanical efficiency and
useful life.
Advantages
High efficiency
Higher torque capacity
Reliability & durability – only three main components
Compact with high power density
Can be connected in series with same pump source
High systems pressure capability
Low speed constant with change in load
Disadvantages
No high speed applications
High cost than other motors
