Two Speed

IEdrives’ EV3 series of heavy duty transmission is specifically designed for use with electric motors that power medium and heavy duty trucks and buses. This transmission family is fully controllable with a 12 or 24 VDC shift signal, allowing for smooth upshift or downshifts. The EV3 series utilizes planetary gear sets to provide the highest efficiency and extreme service durability required by commercial trucks and buses.

Input Shaft Options
IEdrives can provide an adaptor to match any motor output to IEdrives transmission input.  For splined motor shaft diameters of 1.5 inch (40 mm) or less, IEdrives can offer direct coupling of motor output shaft to the female IEdrives input spline.  Contact IEdrives for more information.

Bell Housing or Mounting Plate
IEdrives provides design and fabrication of bell housing or mounting plate as necessary.
Bell housing – motor to transmission mounting
A bell housing is required when an input shaft adaptor connects motor shaft to transmission. Adds 3-4 inches to total installed length depending upon motor shaft length
Adaptor plate – motor to transmission mounting
A simple adaptor plate can be used when direct motor to transmission connection is possible. Adds less than 1 inch to the motor/transmission length. 
Output Shaft Options
IEdrives can provide nearly any common automotive driveshaft spline as a no cost “off-the-shelf” option.  For all others, IEdrives can match the spline.  IEdrives can also provide adaptors and matching Flange Yokes to accept U-joints 1480, 1550, or 1610.  These compact adaptors allow standard bolt on driveshaft attachments to any of IEdrives’ transmissions. 
Alternative, customer specified, terminations can be provided.
