Split Shaft PTO gearboxes are essential components in applications where multiple systems or equipment need to be powered simultaneously from a single engine. They provide efficiency, versatility, and reliability, making them a preferred choice for heavy-duty industries requiring reliable power distribution and operational flexibility.

What is Split Shaft PTO?

A Split Shaft PTO gearbox is a mechanical device that transfers power from an engine to various auxiliary equipment or systems. These gearboxes are commonly used in heavy-duty applications such as trucks, emergency vehicles, industrial machinery, and mobile equipment. They allow for the simultaneous operation of multiple equipment or systems without compromising power or efficiency.

Key Features & Benefits of Split Shaft PTO gearboxes:

  • 1. Power Distribution: Split Shaft PTO gearboxes enable the distribution of power from a single source to multiple systems or vice versa. Usually, a single power source is used to distribute power to systems such as hydraulic pumps, generators, compressors, winches, or other auxiliary devices.

  • 2. Simultaneous Operation: The split shaft design allows different output shafts to operate independently or simultaneously while engaging various equipment without affecting each other's performance. This enhances productivity and flexibility in applications where multiple systems need to be powered concurrently.

  • 3. High Torque Capacity: Split Shaft PTO gearboxes are designed to handle high torque loads and heavy-duty applications. They are built with robust materials and precision-engineered gears to withstand demanding conditions and ensure reliable power transmission.

  • 4. Versatility: These gearboxes can be customized and adapted to suit specific application requirements. Different gear ratios, input/output configurations, and PTO shaft sizes can be accommodated to match the needs of various industries, including construction, utility, emergency services, and more.

  • 5. Integration: Split Shaft PTO gearboxes can be integrated into existing drivetrain systems, making them compatible with a wide range of vehicles and equipment. They can be mounted between the engine and the transmission or between the transmission and the rear axle, depending on the vehicle's configuration.

  • 6. Enhanced Efficiency: By efficiently distributing power to multiple systems, Split Shaft PTO gearboxes help optimize fuel consumption and reduce engine wear and tear. They minimize the need for additional engines or motors, resulting in improved overall system efficiency.
