In the area of construction machinery for every type of machine very specific requirements regarding performance, function and arrangement of transmissions and axles have to be considered. E.g. most of the wheel type excavators are equipped with hydrostatic drives. On the other hand powershift transmissions with torque converters (hydrodynamic) are standard for high powered wheel loader. In case of small wheel loaders there is a trend of using hydrostatic drives in combination with 2 speed transmission. For backhoes synchromesh transmissions are in common use. On the axle side all the vehicles are getting modified from dry disc or drum brakes into oil immersed wet brakes. The aim of this contribution is to discuss the specific design parameters relevant for the driveline components of these various construction machines. By examples current solutions and future trends will be presented. This is referred to modern transmission concepts with sophisticated control systems as well as new axle technologies. Overall a complete overview will be presented regarding power train technology in construction equipment.
