ITL announce launch of PS760 range of gearboxes  ITL are proud to announce the launch of their new PS760 range of gearboxes. The range initially comprises of two transmissions; the PS760 4-speed and the PS760 6-speed transmissions. This new range will complement ITL's existing transmission, axle and driveline products.These new transmissions have been designed using a modular approach, to offer a number of key new features and are Tier 2 compliant. Both gearbox variants feature a co-axial pump drive. SAE B and SAE C mounting options are offered to suit individual requirements. This, together with a shorter overall length, gives improved machine packaging allowing a more compact machine hydraulic system. The PS760 6-speed offers a wider overall ratio spread - a lowest 1st gear 'in-class' gives improved loader performance at low speeds, together with an increase in roading speeds up to 45 kph. Shaft bearings, together with the forward / reverse clutches have been uprated to give increased durability on both transmissions, and allow an increase in input torque to 800Nm, with the 6-speed transmission having an option of 1000Nm input torque. Gear shifting is electro-hydraulically controlled via solenoid valves that now feature I.P.69 connectors for increased environmental protection. An optional ECU gives an improvement in shift quality, together with the option for full automatic transmission control. In addition, the ECU control offers shift protection, whilst on-board diagnostics improve serviceability to new levels. Other features common to both variants include a manually applied wet parking brake. This can also be used to provide braking in an emergency if required. Four-wheel drive options include both hydraulically applied and spring applied clutches. Control of the 4WD is controlled via the ECU. A key feature of both gearbox variants is improved durability / reliability. Reduced 'cost of ownership' was a key project driver. All solenoid valves are grouped together to ease fault-finding, whilst the transmission oil filter is easily placed for service. Oil and filter service intervals have also been increased. Applications include: backhoe loaders, dumper trucks, crop sprayers, telehandlers, mobile cranes, aircraft tow tugs, baggage handling equipment, agricultural tractors, articulated loading shovels, rough-terrain forklifts and cement mixers, to name but a few.
