Product catalog summary

Introduction
ZFs All-Wheel Drive Systems are designed for commercial and special vehicles, providing maximum traction and mobility on heavy terrain. These systems are utilized by major vehicle manufacturers worldwide, including Iveco, Kamaz, MAN, Renault Trucks, Scania, and Volvo.

Specifications
The ZF all-wheel drive systems feature robust and weight-optimized transfer cases and axles. The APL 9000 axle is highlighted for its high ground clearance, lifetime, and steering precision. It includes a 100% differential lock for optimal starting characteristics and an ABS-controlled drum brake suitable for off-road use.

Transfer Cases
ZF offers a comprehensive range of transfer cases for medium and heavy-duty trucks. The VG series includes models like VG 750, VG 1600, and VG 2700, with input torque capacities ranging from 10,000 Nm to 30,000 Nm. These transfer cases are designed for easy installation and high off-road mobility, with features like external oil cooling and compatibility with ADM (Automatic Drive-Train Management).

Automatic Drive-Train Management (ADM)
ZF-ADM is a high-tech system for automatic control of drive-train functions, enhancing safety and driving dynamics. It ensures 100% traction, increases driving stability, and reduces driver workload. The system is beneficial for both skilled and unskilled drivers, offering features like automatic engagement of drive-line functions and protection against incorrect operation.

APE Axle System
The APE axle system is designed for independent wheel suspension, offering lower vehicle height while maintaining ground clearance. It includes components like center drives and wheel heads, with options for different torque flows and configurations for off-road use. The system is compatible with various suspension systems and tire sizes, and offers ABS compatibility and optional CTIS (Central Tire Inflation System).

Conclusion
ZF's all-wheel drive systems provide reliable, safe, and economical performance in challenging driving conditions. The integration of advanced technologies like ADM and the APE axle system enhances vehicle capabilities, making them suitable for a wide range of commercial and special vehicle applications.
