The next generation of axles has been launched
7292 Comer Industries is using bauma to introduce its next generation of axles, wheel drives and heavy-duty track drives.

Products on display at bauma include the series of new-generation axles starting from S-228, developed to provide high braking and efficient performance.  The S-228-238 line was designed and built for applications including earthmoving. On display at bauma is the S-238, which has a dynamic load capacity of 12,000daN and a static load capacity of 22,000daN.

The range has been developed to meet growing demand from manufacturers in terms of energy efficiency and reducing emissions, said Comer. A dedicated development team has worked on a thorough redesign that has covered the product line, supply chain and manufacturing.

The S-128 axle equips the new 718 Liebherr Compact Loaders, which have been nominated as finalist in the design category in the bauma Innovation Award.
The axle is claimed by Comer to provide the highest torque, braking and efficiency performance in its category.  The modular axle has been designed for versatility. Applications include telehandlers, compact front loaders and backhoe loaders.

Comer Industries axles are also installed on the 1222 Terex 5047 Genie Lift GTH telescopic handler and the 1651 Wacker Neuson 6503 wheeled excavator seen at bauma.

Stand: A4.123/212
