A bulk grain and feed truck empties its load through a set of augers. Each unload starts with the flights packed full of grain and runs for minutes without a pause, outdoors and in heavy dust. That combination of a hard start and continuous duty is what decides the motor.

Motor roles in this machine

• BM3Y, auger drive: Disc-valve orbital motor built for high start-up torque and direct low-speed, heavy-load drive. The BM3Y-200 is rated at 564 N·m continuous and 672 N·m intermittent, at 11.1 kg. BM3Y reference →
• Direct drive: Where the duty point sits inside the motor’s continuous range, the motor can drive the auger without a reduction stage.
