Dana Inc announced its collaboration with JLG to develop an advanced Spicer ? Electrified ? e-Axle as part of JLG?s electrification initiative. The Spicer Electrified e- Axle features an optimised combination of electrified drive components packaged in a unique configuration that reduces power losses by up to 20 per cent when compared with traditional diesel-powered drivetrains.

Unveiled at the bauma construction trade show in Munich, the Spicer Electrified e-Axle illustrates how Dana?s investments in research and development, engineering capabilities, and recent acquisitions of adjacent technologies have strengthened the company?s electrification offering.

?As the market continues to shift towards a mix of electrified equipment, JLG is advancing concepts that deliver the same lift performance, maneuverability, work hours, and ease of maintenance offered by diesel power,? said Guru Bandekar, Global Vice President, Product Management and Development, JLG Industries. ?Dana offers a comprehensive suite of advanced drive and motion systems for electrification. This axle concept signifies one joint exploration that will help JLG retain its market leadership.? For more than 20 years, Dana has supplied numerous drive and motion technologies for select JLG aerial work platforms and telehandler models, including axles, hydrostatic and hydrodynamic transmissions, hub drives, slew drives, and driveshafts.

?Dana has made numerous strategic moves that have grown our electrification portfolio exponentially,? said Aziz Aghili, President of Dana Off-Highway Drive and Motion Technologies. ?JLG and Dana share a passion for innovation and a drive toward excellence through electrification.?
