• It consists of two inter meshing gears inside a housing with one gear attached to the drive shaft. Figure shows a schematic diagram of Gear motor.
• The air enters from the inlet, causes the rotation of the meshing gear due to difference in the pressure and produces the torque.
• The air exists from the exhaust port. Gear motors tend to leak at low speed, hence are generally used for medium speed applications.
