Increased efficiency for integrated transmissions from Comer

Comer Industries is developing its integrated power transmissions solutions to boost productivity and efficiency for OEMs. The company is adding the S-46 Hydro axle to its line-up for compact wheeled loaders. The axle now benefits from a hydrostatic radial motor mounted in line with the input shaft, permitting four-wheel drive connection with reduced installation space. Comer is also launching a complete driveline system for soil compactors, the first one being installed on a machine from Atlas Weyhausen

Comer’s new transmissions are highly efficient
7292 Comer Industries is developing its integrated power transmissions solutions to boost productivity and efficiency for OEMs. The company is adding the S-46 Hydro axle to its line-up for compact wheeled loaders. The axle now benefits from a hydrostatic radial motor mounted in line with the input shaft, permitting four-wheel drive connection with reduced installation space.

Comer is also launching a complete driveline system for soil compactors, the first one being installed on a machine from 162 Atlas Weyhausen. The driveline consists of an F-128 axle with PG-161 planetary drive for the rear axle and a wheel drive unit for the compaction drum.

Also new to the line-up is a PGR-3600 rotating housing drive. Available for both wheeled and tracked machines, the PGR-3600 series offers higher torque outputs and load capacities than previous models, with Comer claiming increased reliability.
