Axle Drive Systems
ZF Axle Drive Systems for Passenger Cars: in order to meet todays demands and those of the future, we have prepared an excellent basis, consisting of our modern production sites, highly automated assembly and production processes and the expertise of our employees. Combined with our progressive and innovative product concepts, we are well equipped for tomorrow's driveline systems.
Function & Benefit
The most important features of ZF axle drives for cars conceived to fulfil these high demands are:
High efficiency
A high efficiency and consequent reduction in fuel consumption is achieved through the use of synthetic oil, the reduction of churning losses and optimisation of bearing friction.
Competitiveness
In conjunction with the underlying "building block" principle and the optimised assembly and manufacturing concepts, the design of the housing to utilise the advantages of economical die casting methods provides the prerequisites for a competitive position in the market.
Lightweight construction
In conjunction with consequent component dimensioning in line with the stresses involved, the housing, which is manufactured completely in aluminium using a special split-line concept and integral rubber mounting bushes, gives an unequalled performance-to-weight ratio.
Low noise level
The ground-finished, precision bevel-gear teeth, the low imbalance levels and specially matched rubber mounts ensure good acoustic properties.
Reliability
100% noise and leakage testing of the fully assembled units and lifetime lubrication with synthetic oil provide reliable drives which are maintenance-free over the vehicle lifetime. This in turn ensures low operating costs and the minimum burden on the environment.
