John Deere has awarded ZF Passau
with its Innovation Award for ZF’s Ergopower Efficiency Package supplied to
Deere for use in its construction machinery. The Efficiency Package is a product
upgrade consisting of a torque converter
lock-up clutch, the addition of a fifth
gear, along with other added functions to
improve the efficiency of the Ergopower
transmission used in Deere equipment.
Offering fuel economy improvements up
to 20%, the optional transmission technology, Deere said, contributes significantly toward raising overall efficiency
and reducing exhaust emissions.
