Dana’s new axle/gearbox system is designed for use on soil compactors

2254 Dana Incorporated is launching an optimised axle/gearbox combination for small and medi-um-sized single drum rollers. It is designed with the intention of enabling original-equipment manufacturers to use more compact hydraulic components while maintaining optimal performance.

The solution includes the Spicer 192 rigid planetary axle, a Brevini CTU gearbox and Brevini SH Series variable displacement hydraulic motors. It is said to enable the use of an axle with a high reduction ratio, which increases the power available to the rest of the system.

A range of products is currently available for both single and tandem drum roller applica-tions ranging from 4.5 - 23 tonnes. These include rigid planetary axles, gearboxes, drum drives, fixed and variable displacement hydraulic motors, vibration motors, gear pumps, piston pumps, valves, and associated electronic controls.
