Whether PTO gearboxes for driving hydraulic pumps or chain conveyor drives for agricultural and industrial conveyor systems – the robust designs made from steel, aluminum or cast iron ensure long service life. Through their versatility and reliability, hydraulic gearboxes are among the most important components of modern machinery and drive technology.
Hydraulic Transmission Gearboxes & Chain Conveyor Drives – Frequently Asked Questions
What is a hydraulic transmission gearbox and what is it mainly used for?
A hydraulic transmission gearbox serves to adapt speed and torque in hydraulic systems. Our products are used in the following areas:
- Agricultural technology – e.g. tractors, forestry machines, loader wagons, forage harvesters
- Construction – e.g. cranes, construction machinery
- Industry & mechanical engineering – e.g. presses, stationary hydraulic systems
- Chain conveyor drives – powerful hydraulic conveyor chain and belt drives
What materials are hydraulic transmission gearboxes made from and what sizes are available?
Our gearboxes combine lightweight, corrosion-resistant materials with high-strength construction:
- Housing: Aluminum (PTO gearboxes) or robust cast iron (chain conveyor drives)
- Gears: Precision steel for wear resistance
- Sizes: Various sizes are available, such as size 2, 3, or 4, with different shaft and connection dimensions.
What advantages do hydraulic transmission gearboxes offer?
- Compact design with high power density
- High torque transmission even at low input speed
- Robust, durable construction (steel gears, cast iron housing)
- Minimal maintenance requirements
- Flexible mounting options – flange, sliding sleeve or universal joint
How is a hydraulic transmission gearbox mounted and maintained?
Mounting is done via flange or sliding sleeve. Important factors are precise alignment and vibration-proof bolting.
Maintenance: Regular oil changes (first after approx. 50 h, then according to manufacturer specifications), checking oil level and inspecting seals. With gearbox oil SAE 80W-90 or SAE 90 EP, our gearboxes achieve very long service life.
What significance does the gear ratio have in hydraulic gearboxes?
The gear ratio determines the adaptation of speed and torque:
- PTO gearboxes: 1:1 to 1:3.8 – increase pump speed to over 2000 RPM
- Chain conveyor drives: 1:3 to over 1:40 – extreme torques up to 10,000 Nm
What are the specific features of chain conveyor drive gearboxes?
- Robust cast iron housing for maximum loads
- Very high torque output (up to 10,000 Nm)
- Large reduction ratios for powerful movement
- Optimized for harsh operating conditions in agriculture & industry
What technical specifications are typical for hydraulic transmission gearboxes?
- PTO gearboxes: Aluminum housing, up to 20 kW power, speeds up to 2500 RPM, oil capacity approx. 0.35 l
- Chain conveyor drives: Cast iron housing, torques up to 10,000 Nm, reductions up to 1:40, oil fill 1–6 l SAE 90 EP
What should be considered when selecting the right hydraulic gearbox?
- Required torque and speed (application range)
- Gear ratio matching the hydraulic pump
- Size, flange type, shaft and connection dimensions
- Hydraulic system pressure and motor specifications
- Maintenance-friendliness & oil supply
