Power transmission for soil compactors
7292 Comer Industries has introduced a complete power transmission solution with a compact design to suit the soil compactor sector. The system comprises the F-128 axle plus the PG-161 planetary drive for the rear axle drive line and the PGR-3603 T planetary drum drive for the front drum.

The rear axle drive line has a high transmission reduction ratio to nearly 140:1 and a compact design which allows for the pump and hydraulic motor to be smaller than usual. The axle is equipped with a pre-loaded limited slip differential and can be built with an internal spring applied/hydraulic release (SAHR) parking brake. With a maximum dynamic load of 6.6 tonnes, coupled with a maximum output torque of 2400 daNm, the F-128 axle is suitable for single drum rollers with an operating weight of up to 9 tonnes.

    Solutions for Tier 4 Final emissions regulations dominated Conexpo 2014, with many firms showing off their options of DOC, DPF and SCR after-treatments. Deutz, while staying with an SCR-only solution, took a more unusual approach on its high horsepower V6 12litre and V8 16litre engines. Both get a dual SCR after treatment system to meet Tier 4 Final emission standards.
