The Future of Construction: Intelligent System Solutions by ZF
At bauma Shanghai, ZF proves that as a specialist in driveline technology and intelligent system solutions, the Group is the ideal partner to meet these demands. www.zf.com ZF eTRAC Drive System The construction industry is about to see massive changes, driven by volatile markets, economic uncertainties, and governmental regulations, demanding high flexibility and fast development cycles. With future-proof driveline solutions in the field of electrification and alternative fuels, as well drive systems for higher efficiency, ZF contributes to reduced emissions, higher productivity, and a higher degree of safety at construction sites. Comprehensive and intelligent system solutions, thoroughly matched to each other: This is the company’s answer to the challenges the industry is facing today more than ever. Zero emissions and maximum performance – ZF eTRAC The eTRAC electric drive system satisfies all the expectations for performance and productivity found in traditional drivelines and combines them with the extensive benefits and opportunities that electric systems have to offer. Thanks to its modular design this new range of electric central drives can easily be adapted for various vehicle applications. Zero emissions without compromising on performance Low noise level Efficient electrical components Robust and reliable mechanical driveline Compact installation space E-mobility solutions for compact vehicles such as loaders, site dumpers or telehandlers are the first to enter the construction equipment market, especially in urban or emission-regulated areas. The eTRAC driveline system with its range of 48/96/650-volt e-motors developed by ZF provides the necessary emission-free drive. Additionally, the Group also acts as system supplier. It not only supplies the electric drive, but also offers a combination of front and rear axles, inverters and an eDCU (Electric Drive Control Unit). This best-in-class solution achieves the same output as conventional drivetrains, without compromising on performance factors such as traction and end speed. ZF eTRAC drive system for mobile excavators A newly launched system for mobile excavators consists of a 2-speed powershift transmission, electric motor, and inverter. It can be scaled up to peak torque 850 Nm and continuous power of 80 kW. Three power classes of the electric central drive system eCD50, eCD70 and eCD90 are available to cover different vehicle sizes in the targeted applications. The electric central drives can easily be adapted for various vehicle applications like backhoe loaders, telehandlers, or forestry equipment. To complete the customers’ demand, not only in regards of traction drive, ZF also offers the so-called ePTO, e.g., to run the working hydraulic. To complete the range of electric drives for larger construction vehicles, ZF is offering the eTRAC eCD110-210 series for mid-sized wheel loaders, consisting of an electro-mechanical powershift transmission and one e-motor for traction and ePTO each. An electric drive control unit for overall system performance and power management completes the system. With a 650 V operating voltage, the system can be scaled up to 120 kW continuous power; the ePTO ranges from 30 to 70 kW continuous power. Thanks to its modular design, the system can be integrated into various other vehicle applications as well and can be driven independently from the power source. The company’s solutions fit in both battery-electric vehicles and fuel-cell battery electric vehicles, which will also play a big role in the future of construction machinery. Ready for decarbonization through highly efficient CVT technology – ZF cPOWER In addition to future-oriented e-mobility solutions, a transition towards low carbon fuels can be observed on the market, when it comes to decarbonization of construction machinery. Depending on the vehicle’s size and energy demand, different energy sources are possible. Whilst batteries are a suitable source for electric compact and medium vehicles, alternative fuels are a promising power source for medium and large size vehicles to reduce their CO2 footprint. Efficiency will play an even more important role in the future. This is due on the one hand to steadily rising energy costs, on the other hand to a lower energy density of alternative fuels which in turn, require higher storage volumes. Despite all the different power sources entering the market recently – be it hydrogen, eFuels or, for example, bio-diesel – conventional drives with powershift and power split transmissions will remain to be the backbone of the vehicle’s system architecture. No matter the power source, conventional diesel, alternative fuels, or electrification: ZF is more than up to these challenges and can provide the right driveline technology, independent from the power source. This leads to fuel savings of up to 25% compared to standard powershift drives. ZF cPOWER CVT-Technology Robust and reliable powershift tech

Powershift technology for Heavy Material Handling – ZF ERGOPOWER
The wide functionality of diesel forklift trucks makes the highest demands on the driveline, in particular on the transmission. For example, gear-shifting must occur under full load without interruption in traction and without jerking. With the ERGOPOWER short-drop series ZF offers a whole range of transmissions which have been specially conceived for the requirements of the material handling market.

The perfect choice for manufacturers and operators: TraXon - Modular Automated Transmission
The TraXon automatic transmission combines an extremely powerful basic transmission with a modular kit concept. The modular kit concept is one of the essential advantage of TraXon. This enables the basic transmission to be combined with several starting or shift modules, which make the transmission more economical in practice, thus giving manufacturers and operators the best possible flexibility for every application as well as increasing the comfort for the driver. At the Bauma Shanghai ZF shows two of these modules as physical exhibits: TraXon Torque and TraXon DynamicPerform.
TraXon Torque integrates a torque converter with a dry clutch as a launch element. This makes TraXon Torque suitable for particularly challenging loads – such as those handled by cranes or special vehicles as well as heavy-duty transporters with a permissible total weight of over 70 tons. It enables even the highest input torques to be implemented both powerfully and smoothly at the same time.
Mobile cranes, special vehicles and special applications with up to 3,000 Nm input torque can be fitted with the TraXon DynamicPerform, a new clutch for durable starting and wear-free manoeuvring without overheating. Together with its outstanding efficiency and long service life, ZF is offering manufacturers and service providers in the off-highway and construction industries the ideal product for challenging applications.

Robust lightweight EcoLife Offroad 2
EcoLife Offroad 2 is a transmission system in the segment of medium to heavy vehicles such as construction sites and dump trucks. The permissible engine-end torque of 3,000 Nm and the torque of the two engine-dependent PTOs with 1,000 Nm enable high and robust power transmission in the toughest off-road conditions. On top, an optional interface for a directly mounted transfer case saves valuable installation space and gives OEMs free rein to install and develop new platforms.
