What type of transmission does the crane use?

The crane utilizes a Dana T20000 series transmission, which is designed specifically for heavy-duty applications, providing reliability and efficiency in demanding environments. This type of transmission features three forward gears and three reverse gears, offering flexibility and control during operation.

Heavy machinery, like cranes, often requires robust transmission systems to manage various loads and terrains effectively. The Dana T20000 series is well-suited for such tasks, as it allows operators to select the appropriate gear based on the working conditions, thus enhancing performance and safety. The presence of multiple gears aids in optimal power distribution and control, especially when lifting or moving heavy loads.

In contrast, other options might suggest specifications that do not align with the typical requirements for crane operations. For example, an automatic transmission with four reverse gears may not provide the necessary versatility in handling heavy loads, while a manual transmission with three forward gears lacks the needed range for complex lifting tasks. Continuous variable transmission, while efficient in some applications, may not offer the precise control needed for heavy-duty crane operations. Therefore, the Dana T20000 series is the preferred choice for crane functionality.
