| Truck transmissions have one or more locations which allow for a PTO to be mounted. The PTO must be purchased separately and care is required to match the physical interface of the transmission with a compatible PTO. PTO suppliers will usually require details of the make, model and even serial number of the transmission. Care is also needed to ensure that the physical space around the transmission allows for installation of the PTO. Typically an air valve is used to engage the PTO, but a mechanical linkage, electric or hydraulic mechanism is also options.
At Mobile Systems we take into consideration your needs in selecting your PTO according to the application and performance.
We offer PTO’s from the following manufactures:
Bezares
Chelsea
Muncie
PEC
Rockford
Twindisk
In the majority of cases the PTO will connect directly to a hydraulic pump. This allows for transmission of mechanical force through the hydraulic fluid system to any location around the vehicle where a hydraulic motor will convert it back into rotary or linear mechanical force. Typical applications include:
- Running a water pump on a fire engine or water truck
- Powering a blower system used to move dry materials such as cement
- Raising and lowering a dump truck bed
- Operating the mechanical arm on a bucket truck used by electrical maintenance personnel or Cable TV maintenance crews
- Operating a winch on a tow truck
- Operating the compactor on a garbage truck
- Operating a Hiab/Grapple truck
