Technology that moves Transmission Systems for Mobile Cranes and Special Vehicles

Worldwide Mobile Power Worldwide, ZF Friedrichshafen AG is recognized as an excellent and reliable partner for innovative driveline and chassis technology. We keep thinking, challenging the status quo, and always working on technological and also market-driven innovations – ever since the beginning of the 20th century, this core message has defined the thinking and action-taking of this company.

About 100 years later, the core brand was clearly defined. ZF leads in terms of technology, quality, and service. One reason for this: every year, ZF invests approximately five percent of its sales in Research and Development. Thanks to the cooperation of the divisions, we warrant the manufacture of flawless, reliable, and long-lasting products to manufacturers and operators.

Driveline Technology for Mobile Cranes Jobs of all kinds, maneuverability even on difficult terrain, constantly changing work sites – ZF provides transmission technology that quickly, safely, and economically increases the performance of mobile cranes both at work and on the road. To do this requires flexibility.

Our multitalented transmissions can perform various functions. And our transmissions, shifting software, and operating concepts are customized. In the process, our company relies on its comprehensive know-how. We have access to various product areas, and in each case we can integrate the best transmission components into a perfectly fine-tuned system adapted to individual customer needs.

Comfort Thoroughly convincing thanks to lightweight design: ZF-AS Tronic mid ZF-AS Tronic mid with PTOs installed 1 Shift module 2 Speed range selector 3 Clutch Even in lightweight classes, it is possible to enjoy the usual comfort of ZF-AS Tronic shifting while achieving high 65 kg less in weight, the two ZF-AS Tronic performance in mobile cranes that operate in the middle mid variants are both shorter and lighter rpm range on two or three axles. than the “original” model. The 12-speed transmission works with a direct drive or overdrive ratio. The optional PTOs (clutch- and...

Performance   fine piece of technology: ZF-TC Tronic HD A ZF-TC Tronic HD is a combination of the tried and trusted Using its PTO interfaces, ZF-TC Tronic HD ZF-AS Tronic system with upstream torque converter converts driving power into working clutch (German abbreviation: WSK). Especially for setting power. These optional PTOs (clutch and off and maneuvering heavy mobile cranes, the driving drive-dependent) create further interfaces power can be increased in a driveline-preserving way by hydrodynamic torque boost. Once in motion, the torque converter is automatically locked up and the...

By the way … Engine-dependent power take-off (PTO) for ZF transmission Like a ‘sandwich‘, the engine-dependent PTO is installed larly attractive for commercial vehicles between the engine and the transmission (SAE interface); which require very high torques for it disposes over a cooling circuit of its own. their auxiliary power units, such as concrete pumps, mobile cranes, The clutch-independent PTO is available with one (2,000 Nm) or fire-fighting vehicles, or sewer cleaning two (1,000 Nm) output interfaces. This enables high application
