PTO: Power take-offs

The right power take-off must be identified and selected for the workload of the application required.

We can group PTOs into three main types of applications:

1. Short-term workloads – less than 15 mins. (e.g., tipper trucks, hook loaders, vehicle transporters, etc.)
2. Medium workloads – 15< mins., >30 mins. (e.g., cranes, tank trucks, waste collection, tow trucks, etc.)
3. Long-term workloads – >30 mins. (e.g., miscellaneous compressors, firefighting vehicles, pumps for concrete, forestry cranes, etc)

The following information will be necessary for a correct PTO selection:

• gear box manufacturer’s name
• gear box model
• type of application (how many Nm)
• required or specific performance-related information (if any)

Completed with mounting kit (seals and bolts), PTO can be directly connected to our hydraulic gear or piston pumps (or any other moving mechanism).

For different mounting requirements, cardan shafts, flanges and adapters are available.
