“Peterbilt continues to expand its product reach into new vocational markets,” says Robert Woodall, Peterbilt director of sales and marketing. “Features such as split-shaft PTOs provide our vocational customers the component technology they need to successfully operate their business, and position Peterbilt for growth in this important market segment.”
Peterbilt has partnered with Namco to fully integrate its product designs into the production process, the company says. Split-shaft PTOs are said to be designed for high speed and torque characteristics necessary to function with concrete pumpers, oilfield equipment, vacuum trucks, mobile drilling rigs (water or petroleum) and emergency vehicle applications.
