Gearboxes

The latest example of the engineering achievements of gkn Land

systems is the development and production of an innovative

shift and reversing gearbox for shredders for use in the forestry

and municipal sectors.

with this new gearbox, we have developed an innovative drive solution for

shredding drums, the great majority of which have so far been equipped with

hydrostatic drives. The gkn Land systems automatic shift and reversing gearbox

consists of a three-speed automatic gearbox and a torque-operated, electro-

hydraulically controlled overload clutch.

> no manual intervention of the operator required in case of congestion and overload

> 35 % higher efficiency factor compared with the usual hydrostatic drive systems

> Reduction of the fuel consumption by approx. 30 % and consequently reduction of the CO

2-emission

> simultaneously more than 10 % higher flow by automatic function and higher efficiency factor

> automatic and quick reversing in case of congestion for operator-free function and maximum flow

> automatic adaptation of the working speed by self-acting gear shifting

drive trains can be electrified easily via retrofit.

by adding the electric energy to the mechanical drive the torque can be boosted temporarily.

it is also possible to recuperate electric energy combined with the deceleration of the drive

by creating a braking torque.

The rotating speed of the mechanical drive train is adapted to the necessary speed of the

electrical machine by the spur gearbox.

in order to avoid to over speed the electrical machine it can be disengaged as required

from the mechanical drive train by an integrated clutch for operation conditions at

higher speeds.

The growing integration of different drive forms in drive trains (hybrid technologies) and

the development of low-consumption drives require the activation and deactivation of

diverse sub-assemblies.

They also require clutches with low power consumption and an excellent torque to

space ratio that can disengage virtually free from residual torque. Electromagnetic pole-

face friction clutches are ideal for activating auxiliary units in light machinery, municipal

vehicles, and textile machinery and for compressor drives in cooling units, marine

applications, pump technology, test rigs, and pTO drives.
