ZF – The Systems Partner

Systems for Winners

Success Factor Innovation

Outstanding Solutions for any Application

One thing is certain though: The whole is greater than the sum of its parts. Buying

in individual components long ceased to be all that it takes. Cooperation with an

efficient systems partner is your decisive advantage. The target we are striving for

is quite simple: Combining sophisticated modules to a perfect system to offer the

decisive plus in productivity and reliability for your construction machinery.

There is only restricted scope for further functional improvements at the component

level. Concentrated activities are centered around quality optimization and increase

of reliability. However, the only way to achieve quantum leaps in terms of

functionality is to network the components with their central control systems.

Heavy-duty transmissions, precision axles and intelligent electronic systems are the components any

sophisticated total package is composed of. Tailor-made solutions of ultimate technological level are the

secret of our company’s worldwide market leadership!

The systems partner and innovation leader ZF offers its

customers the full range of R & D and product know-

how. One source for everything, minimized interfaces,

perfect matching of all modules for optimum

performance and reserves. You get a fully tuned and

quality-proven system for integration into your

construction machinery.

Anyone who just responds to requirements

is late. Therefore, innovation all over the

world is our home. ZF driveline and chassis

technology is your reliable partner for

worldwide success.

Example Dumper Driveline:Transmissions and axles in dumpers are continuously exposed to maximum loading factors.

What makes ZF products stand out for these requirements are high levels of reliability and low wear and tear.

ZF Axles

Ground Clearance – Ground Contact ZF Multisteer and ZF Multitrac

High technology for proper ground contact with maximum ground clearance. ZF axle systems

place firm ground under any vehicle concept. The modular design allows coming up to all

customer requirements.

Slim axle housings, small axle center drives and high ratios in the wheel heads do not represent

a conflicting engineering target for us but are already part of our innovative axle ranges

ZF-Multisteer and ZF-Multitrac.

A consistently applied systematic approach to our axle ranges enables us to deliver a cost-effective,

optimum performance solution for virtually any vehicle or application profile by drawing on our pool of

modular designs. This multi-faceted flexibility is symbolized by the brand names we have chosen for

our axle series.

A policy of sharing experience gained in engineering, testing and practice – this is how we are able to

directly focus our development efforts on the specific needs of our customers. The outcome of this

meticulous work guarantees production units offering considerably increased performance, extended

service life and decisive economy.

ZF-Multisteer and ZF-Multitrac fully meet the most diverging targets: They are robust but also

lightweight, capable of delivering a great deal of power from a compact shape, they are versatile while

remaining cost-effective in line with the market. Every ZF construction equipment axle is based on the

mature status of long production runs, thus offering the full range of options needed to comply with your

individual demands.

ZF MultisteerMultisteer front axle systems were designed for extremeloadings. The steering cylinder is integrated in the axlehousing and is positioned in a protected location behindthe axle. Combined with the negative scrub radius thisallows high maneuverability even with large front wheels.

ZF MultitracMultitrac rear axles are equipped with internal wet multi-disc brakes which ensure high levels of braking torque,require minimum maintenance and are self-adjusting. They are fitted with SAHR park brakes.

Sectional view of wheel headThe total efficiency of the brake is optimized by synchronized RPM of wet multi-disc brake and wheel.

ZF Transmissions

Maximum efficiency

ZF ErgopowerThe world of construction machines is extremely versatile. ZF driveline technology constantly bears in

mind these complex requirements. When we supply transmissions to our customers, they not only receive

a superlative technical product, they also take a major step forward.

We develop innovative system transmissions representing a high added value for any construction machine.

Maximum power utilization, optimum shifting quality without tractive effort interruption, easy maintenance

and diagnostics combined with low noise emission delivers transmission technology being of equal benefit

to the vehicle owner and the driver.

ZF Ergopower transmissions offer completely new standards to the market. Helical gears with high

tooth contact reduce the noise level. Extremely short shafts prevent deflection and tooth contact errors.

Vertical arrangement of spur gear ratios bridges the difference in height between input and output shaft,

allowing the axle differential to be integrated into the housing. No additional transfer box is required.

You can materialize completely new construction

machinery concepts with ZF. Extreme low-noise

operation and considerably reduced load peaks

increase both service life and reliability to a great

extent, resulting in your construction machines

offering even more comfort and economy.

The modular configuration combinedwith a cost-optimized design iscutting your operating costs down toan absolute minimum and ensuresexcellent tuning to vehicle andapplication.

The helical gears with high tooth con-tact, the extremely short, stiff shaftand the noise-optimized housingdesign allow a considerable noisereduction.

The compact clutch package offersimproved shifting quality and a highlevel of handling comfort.

ZF Electronics

Permanent intelligence – everything under control

Controllable power

ZF-Ergocontrol and ZF-Ergoshift

ZF-Ergocontrol stands for the central brain of the drive system. Microprocessors are networking and

controlling all vehicle functions on a central basis. For axles and transmissions. For individual pressure

build-up. For the right shifting point. For smooth gear change without tractive effort interruption. For

optimized driving performance and traction. To prevent operating errors.

Altogether, this saves fuel and allows the driver to fully concentrate on his job.

ZF-ErgoshiftThe interface between man and machine, withgear selectors designed in accordance with state-of-the-art ergonomic know-how. They guaranteefatigue-proof working, ensure excellent efficiencyand operating safety and highly increase theproductivity of your construction machine.

ZF-ErgocontrolThe electronic ZF-Ergocontrol combines the components to an efficiently functioning system.The software carefully matches the machine to theindividual application to ensure optimum utilizationof the power produced under the hood.

10 11

The decisive criterion: All-In-One-Motion Control can only be achieved by ingenious electronic systems.

“The Power of Data” applies to modern company management just as much as it does to the interaction

of forces in construction machinery. ZF electronics handle the total management of the vehicle and control

engine, retarder, clutches, interaxle differentials, brakes and axle differentials.

The advantages are obvious: easy operation, reduced wear and low consumption levels. This is how

modern driveline management permanently guarantees optimum power utilization.
