Is there any way to vary the torque of a gerotor

[David lopez]

Can you vary the torque of a gerotor motor? I am having trouble finding an answer on the internet. The same
Gerotor will produce different torques.

Ge-rotors are widely used today throughout industry, and are produced in a variety of shapes and sizes by a number of different methods.

That doesn't tell me how to vary the
Torque of the same gerotor motor. This same gerotor might produce three different torques. I want to know how
To vary the torque without using a different gerotor of a different size or
Shape.

The torque is proportional to the pressure drop across it. Increase the supply pressure or reduce the exit pressure to get more torque.

Cheers,

What is exit pressure?

 

[Tom.G]

What is exit pressure?

The pressure at the outlet of the motor.

Can you vary the torque of a gerotor motor?

Yes. Increase the hydraulic pressure provided to the motor.

But gerotor flow rate is proportional to RPM.
Since flow rate is usually fixed for a hydraulic system by the pump, there will be a limit to gerotor motor RPM.
Hydraulic pressure will fall and torque will be limited at that volumetric flow rate determined motor RPM.
