GFT travel drives are planetary final drive units designed for tracked and off-highway machinery. The integrated hydraulic motor, planetary gearbox and hydraulic braking system provide a compact solution for transmitting torque to crawler or track systems.
The GFT series can be configured for excavators, mining equipment, construction machinery, material handling equipment and other tracked applications where high torque and compact installation are required.
The GFT travel drive platform is designed for mobile machinery requiring hydraulic travel transmission and planetary torque reduction.
Tracked construction equipment
Excavators and crawler machinery
Mining and tunneling equipment
Heavy-duty material handling equipment
Specialized off-highway vehicles
The hydraulic motor converts hydraulic flow and pressure into rotational torque for the travel drive. Different hydraulic motor configurations can be selected according to the machine and operating requirements.
Axial piston motor configurations
Variable displacement options
High starting torque configurations
The planetary reduction unit increases output torque while maintaining a compact transmission layout. Multi-stage planetary gear trains are available for different output torque and speed requirements.
3-stage or 4-stage planetary configurations
Hardened alloy steel gears
Output torque range: up to 60,000 Nm for the specified GFT60T3 configuration
The integrated braking system is designed to hold the travel drive when hydraulic pressure is removed and to provide controlled stopping during machine operation.
Spring-applied and hydraulically released brake
Hydraulic brake release
Parking brake options according to configuration
The planetary gearbox converts hydraulic motor output into high torque at the final drive, making the unit suitable for crawler machines and other tracked equipment.
The integrated motor, gearbox and brake arrangement reduces the number of separate transmission components and supports compact travel drive installation.
Hydraulic drive control allows the machine travel speed and torque characteristics to be matched to the application and operating conditions.
Hardened gears, high-capacity bearings and sealed housing construction are used to support operation in demanding mobile equipment environments.
