Driveline specialist 2254 Dana has completed its purchase of Brevini’s power transmission and fluid power business.

Exhibiting the combined product line at CONEXPO-CON/AGG for the first time, the acquisition has allowed Dana to move from wheeled drivelines to include tracked machinery and auxiliary drive systems.

The line-up now includes planetary track drive motors as well as wheel motors, planetary gearboxes, slew motors, hydraulic pumps and valves. At the show the company also launched a line of Brevini motor/winch drives for crane applications, along with Brevini twin-shaft industrial gearbox systems for use in asphalt and concrete mixing applications.

Pavers in these countries are often expected to be driven from one part of a site to another or for short distances, which is why the additional mobility of the wheeled machine is preferred in many instances over similarly-sized tracked models. This preference for wheeled units comes in spite of the greater stability offered by tracked machines. BOMAG, Caterpillar and
