In opencast mines heavy equipment is in demand. Thirty cubic metres of material can be loaded in one sweep or over 350 tonnes of load transported. Here, the giant machines used must move exactly, but delicately. The robust ZF gearboxes ensure that everything remains reliably in motion.
ZF large planetary drives for mining applications are characterized by their compact and space-saving construction and they are extremely resilient. We know what is really needed to obtain the optimum performance from your machines.
ZF drive, swing and winch gearboxes take up the heaviest loads, they are extremely compact and facilitate precise machine control with high power transmission. ZF has an unequalled, wide range of gearboxes for mining applications and large construction machines.
