Ferry Products is a French industrial manufacturer specializing in pneumatic motors (air motors) and related automation solutions. The company offers a comprehensive portfolio organized into nine product series (100 through 800), ranging from compact 220W units to high-power 8kW motors. Each series includes multiple models with varying power ratings, reduction stages, and torque specifications. The product line includes standard pneumatic motors, pneumatic brake motors with integrated stopping mechanisms, pneumatic clamping units for torque-controlled tightening applications, and lubrication-free gear motors for clean environments. All motors function as motor-reducers integrating pneumatic motors with gearboxes. Ferry Products also provides complete accessory packages including tool holders, chucks, screwing units, and comprehensive control equipment (air treatment, regulation, speed control). The company serves industrial applications including ATEX zones, automotive production lines, and specialized manufacturing.
