Dana Enhances Electrification Portfolio

Dana Incorporated (NYSE: DAN) today announced several initiatives―including new drivetrain offerings for electrified vehicles―that strengthen the company’s growing commitment to the North American construction and off-highway markets.

Leveraging Dana’s field-proven powershift technology, the eSP502 e-Transmission offers a dual-motor, two-speed design that is built on a flexible platform to enable optimized performance at maximum efficiency in a compact package. The modular approach to the transmission design allows for a single motor solution, as well as an optional power take-off, depending on the specific vehicle requirements.
Delivering high efficiency in a compact package that performs like a conventional powershift transmission, the dual-motor version supports continuous power outputs up to 326 horsepower (240 kW), while the single-motor configuration is engineered for 187 horsepower (140 kW) of continuous output.
The eSP502 is equipped with next-generation control software and functional safety readiness, enabling easy installation and smooth integration, and it features a patented clutch design that minimizes clutch drag to maximize efficiency.
It is equipped with field-proven Dana TM4™ high-voltage motors of up to 800 volts to improve efficiency, reduce total package size, and provide redundancy as needed.
The eSP502 e-Transmission’s compact and modular design allows it to be adapted for use in 4×2 or 4×4 vehicle applications with a range of ratio options to support a variety of vehicle types.


Versatile, Future-ready Driveline for Telehandlers
Developed for telehandlers lifting up to 12,000 pounds (5,400 kg), Dana’s new driveline comes equipped with a compact Spicer 312 dropbox for high-power hydrostatic motors. This new hydrostatic dropbox functions as a continuously variable transmission without torque interruption, delivering enhanced performance with precise maneuvering at low speeds, reduced fuel consumption, and an integrated spring applied hydraulic release parking brake.
The system includes the field-proven Spicer® 222 front and rear heavy-duty axles, which each feature a limited-slip differential and provide the customer with maintenance-free brakes. The complete driveline system is optimized for efficiency as well as noise, vibration, and harshness.
To support the industry’s transition to zero-emission vehicles, Dana optimized the axles and driveline system to improve efficiency for a variety of architectures, allowing customers to retain the same driveline solution while choosing between implementing a hydrostatic dropbox or an electrically driven design.

Technologies Showcased at CONEXPO

Dana’s exhibit at CONEXPO also includes a wide selection of updated drive and motion technologies for traditional and electrified construction machinery, including mini excavators, mobile elevated work platforms (MEWPs), and crawler cranes. The display will also highlight the updated Brevini EvoMax™ helical and bevel-helical gearbox used for numerous applications in the production of cement, from limestone quarrying to the distribution of packed cement powder.

The company’s advanced solutions for OEMs will be featured by numerous exhibitors throughout the show, such as high-efficiency Dana TM4 SUMO™ motors supplied to Tadano Group, a Japanese manufacturer of mobile cranes and MEWPs located in the Festival Lot, booth F-9707.
