Mining

Allison Transmissions are well respected in the mining industry for their durabilty, reliability and high-performance in rugged and demanding environments. Allison Transmissions perform brilliantly in the most demanding situations and operate smoothly regardless of terrain. Whether it be slopes, rocks, hills, mud or gravel Allison Transmissions have got you covered. In mining and off-road businesses, durability and reliability are absolutely critical. Allison transmissions do more than just survive difficult conditions - they excel. Allison Transmissions are designed and manufactured for high performance without the maintenance, achieving faster work cycles, lower servicing costs, reduced down-time and extended service intervals.

Greater productivity

Whether operating on smooth surfaces, gravel roads, hills or anything else, an Allison Automatic will deliver consistant power, traction and manouverability all day long.

Allison transmission deliver spirited responsiveness by accelerating faster, even under heavy load, which means you get more work done with less stress. A more responsive vehicle means a better performing driver – and that means better safety and higher productivity.

Improved maneuverability

Allison’s Continuous Power Technology™  deliver uninterrupted engine power simply and smoothly. This means superior acceleration, a smooth drive, effortless shifting, precise traction control and improved maneuverability – even in harsh or rugged conditions. It also helps the driver control the vehicle at low speeds. Compare this performance to a manual or automated manual transmission (AMT) – which can have a much slower launch and difficulty maintaining momentum when shifting. With an Allison Automatic, the ease of operating your vehicle and the increased safety will be evident – inching will be simple, and the rollback experienced with a manual clutch will be a distant memory.

Lower costs, easier maintenance

Allison makes transmission care easy and less costly. And since Allison Automatics don’t have a starting clutch, you won’t have routine clutch damage or need replacements — a downtime concern with manual transmissions and AMTs. Routine oil and filter changes are the only regular maintenance required with an Allison Automatic. With Allison’s Prognostics feature you can quickly monitor oil life, filter life and transmission health to take the guesswork and hassle out of scheduling vehicle maintenance. This saves time and money without risking damage or wear to the transmission.

Better fuel efficiency

An Allison Automatic delivers better fuel economy and optimum performance. Allison Automatics carry more tonnage per litre of fuel and give the driver a choice of operating modes to best suit the conditions. Our transmissions select the optimum shift points based on load and terrain to automatically enhance fuel savings or add more power when needed. The transmission shifts at lower engine speeds when the truck is unloaded to provide fuel savings and automatically adjusts to higher speed shifts when more power is required. Downshifts are also managed to provide the engine or transmission retarder with capacity to maintain downhill speed without significant use of the service brake.
