Every construction vehicle the world over is built with products from ZOLLERN - at least in theory. That's because, with a market share of around 25 percent, ZOLLERN is the leading manufacturer of rope winches and slewing and drive gears for construction vehicles.
ZOLLERN rope winches are high-tech, compact products with integrated gearboxes that can handle heavy loads. They are implemented as hoisting winches in overhead and mobile cranes or as free-fall winches for special-purpose vehicles, for example for the reinforcement of supporting structures.
Used as drive gears, ZOLLERN gearboxes propel construction vehicles, and used as slewing gears, they ensure the vehicles' stationary radius of action.
Special-purpose gearboxes are, for instance, utilised in crawler excavators for coal mining or in tunnel boring machines.
ZOLLERN is also a specialist in high-precision piston rods, which are used in the hydraulic cylinders of construction machines.
The newly developed electric drive rope winch by ZOLLERN is employed for the first time as part of a high-ly sophisticated mobile drilling system used to drill down to a depth of 5 kilometres for gas resources. For the first time, ZOLLERN here uses an asynchronous motor de-veloped in-house and specially designed to meet the performance requirements of the rope winch. By includ-ing their own drive unit and gearbox, ZOLLERN are en-suring that all the core components for the new compact electric winch will be provided by the expertise of the Group and are thereby enabling customised solutions for special customer applications.
