The Spicer 318 HCVT from 2254 Dana Holding is for wheeled loaders with six- to nine-tonne operating weights and telescopic boom handlers with six- to 10 tonnes lift capacities.

The 318 HCVT blends controllability with efficiency from its use of two hydrostatic motors capable of working together to accommodate several displacement combinations.

Typically configured, the Spicer 318 HCVT offers full CVT functionality without torque interruption as well as an increase in efficiency at higher travel speeds - expect more than 20 per cent more efficiency over standard hydrostatic transmissions, said Dana.

    February 7, 2013
    Dana Rexroth Transmission Systems, the joint venture Dana and Bosch Rexroth, is to launch the R2 hydromechanical variable transmission (HVT). The modular transmission uses both a hydrostatic drive and a mechanical gearbox to deliver fuel savings of up to 25% compared to a torque converter transmission. Designed to work with engine outputs of 134-193kW (180-260hp), the R2 is suitable for use in wheeled loaders, motor graders, lift trucks and a variety of off-highway applications.

    Dana used bauma 2013 to show a hydraulic hybrid concept for use with wheeled loaders, offering the potential to reduce fuel consumption by 20-40%. Called PowerBoost, the system uses high-pressure hydraulic accumulators to store up fluid power that can be released to assist the engine in driving hydraulic pumps and motors. “PowerBoost offers hydraulic power assistance to almost any machine function, to prevent peak loads on the engine during short duty cycles such as loading,” said Donald Remboski, Dana vice

    Volvo’s two compact hydrostatic wheeled loaders, the nine and 10 tonne L45 and L50, have been upgraded to G-series specification. It means the compact loaders get a transversely-mounted, four-cylinder D4H engine that gives 74-86kW, and drives a twin-range hydrostatic transmission with 100% locking differentials on both axles.
