ZF shows cPower for wheeled loaders at INTERMAT

ZF Transmissions used INTERMAT to reveal its cPower continuously variable transmission (CVT) for wheeled loaders up to 210kW. Using experience gained in the agricultural tractor sector, where CVTs have been in use for more than 10 years, ZF’s cPower transmission uses a blend of hydrostatics and mechanical drives to split power throughout the entire working speed range.

ZF CVT Gearbox LIVE at INTERMAT 2012
2304 ZF Transmissions used INTERMAT to reveal its cPower continuously variable transmission (CVT) for wheeled loaders up to 210kW.

Using experience gained in the agricultural tractor sector, where CVTs have been in use for more than 10 years, ZF’s cPower transmission uses a blend of hydrostatics and mechanical drives to split power throughout the entire working speed range.

cPower eliminates the need for a torque converter, and its ability to automatically adjust engine speed to use only the power it needs to reach and maintain a chosen travel speed is delivering up to 25% less fuel consumption with field-follow machines, said ZF.

    Hyundai Heavy Industries Europe (HHIE) used INTERMAT to start the roll-out of its Dash 9A wheeled loaders. First up are the HL760, HL770 and HL780 models, which get Cummins QSB Stage IIIb engines with an active regeneration system that uses controlled, in-cylinder fuel injection (rather than a fuel burner) to achieve the desired reduction in engine emissions. Among the tweaks are a relocated fan to improve cooling efficiency and maintenance access, a touch-screen LCD display and electronic smart key – the l
