Game-Changing Forestry Off-Road Drive Axle! Shandong Lutong’s Harvester-Skidder Axle Redefines Drivetrain Technology
Shandong Lutong – a global leader in drive axle manufacturing – has launched its dedicated forestry drive axle for extreme-terrain skidders. Engineered to meet Russia’s rigorous operational demands, this solution redefines reliability and power through a four-stage reduction gear system, balanced axle transmission, and intelligent differential locking technology.
⚙️ Core Advantages: Built for Forestry & Off-Road
1️ High-Torque Output
Four-stage gear reduction delivers industry-leading drive torque (5,600 kN·m), enabling seamless operation in deep snow, marshland, and 45°+ slopes.
2️ Optimized Ground Clearance
Power input/tire center offset design maximizes obstacle clearance (>350 mm), conquering stumps/boulders in Russian taiga forests.
3️ Efficient Power Transfer
Multi-gear balanced axle transmission achieves 98%+ mechanical efficiency, reducing energy loss and extending service life by 30%.
4️ Terrain-Adaptive Stability
Oscillating pivot design absorbs 50% more impact than rigid axles, lowering maintenance costs via reduced structural stress.
5️ All-Condition Traction & Safety
Sealed multi-disc wet brakes perform at -50°C; hydraulically-locked differentials ensure 100% slip control on ice/loose soil.
🌲 Key Applications
Winter timber extraction in Arctic conditions
Marshland operations (swamp mats optional)
Mountainous skidding (>30° incline)
