Gearing up for future

The pandemic year has turned out to be a top gear one for the construction equipment segment, which is riding on the government infra spend to see a more than 15 per cent year-on-year rise in domestic sales volumes in FY21 and a doubling of sales in Q1FY22 compared to last year.

A Variable Transmission System Has Multiple Benefits

The transmission system plays an important role in an equipment as the gearbox determines the performance and robustness of an equipment. The key components in a drive line of the construction equipment (CE) transmission system are front and rear axles with planetary gears, differential brakes, transmission shaft, clutch, and torque converters.

Continuously variable transmissions

A trend towards lower engine speeds and the demand for engine stabilisation by a constant speed concept are the future challenges on the construction machinery market. The continuously variable cPOWER from ZF meets both requirements. In wheel loader applications, hydrostatic-powersplit transmissions ensure significant consumption benefits compared to hydrodynamic transmissions and purely hydrostatic concepts.

ZF cPower

ZF makes a technological leap in construction machinery with its fully powersplit CVT. A technological leader, now ZF is also a trend-setter. "cPower is the beginning of a new technological era in construction
