This new aftermarket remanufacturing initiative extends equipment life cycles to support sustainability initiatives and reduce the total cost of ownership.

"Dana's next-generation innovations and aftermarket programs at MINExpo demonstrate our deep commitment to driving customer performance, sustainability, and profitability at every stage of mining operations," said Marcus King, Vice President of Off-Highway Global Sales, Business Development, Strategy, and Program Management for Dana Incorporated.

Dana is also showcasing drive and motion innovations that improve efficiency, durability, and total return on investment, including new systems that advance the electrification of mobile mining equipment: 

• A low-emission series hybrid powertrain system for underground loaders that combines the high-efficiency Spicer Electrified™ eSP502 powershift transmission and an engine-mounted Dana TM4™ Sumo HP generator for added productivity.
• A zero-emission drivetrain solution for underground drill rigs incorporating a Spicer Electrified™ eSG101 single-speed e-Gearbox with a Dana TM4™ LD HV800 motor/inverter system.
• The introduction of an integrated fan solution for alignment-free Brevini EvoMax® helical and bevel-helical gearboxes used in mining conveyor applications.
• A Dana Brevini™ planetary gearbox supplying torque ranges up to 2,200 kNm for apron feeders, roller presses, and other applications.

Extending Life Cycles through Remanufacturing

The new Dana Certified Reman program restores Dana Spicer axles, transmissions, torque converters, and gearboxes to the same performance as new units from the factory with shorter delivery times and at a more competitive price.

Currently available at Dana facilities throughout Europe, the Dana Certified Reman program will extend to an additional 50 locations in North America, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and China by the end of 2025.

Support for Electrified Mining Vehicles

Dana addresses individual mobile application needs through a technology portfolio that can be configured in both low- and zero-emission drivelines, helping original-equipment manufacturers (OEMs) chart a roadmap toward decarbonization with commercially available products.

At MINExpo, Dana is presenting its hybrid drivetrain system for underground loaders featuring the Spicer Electrified™ eSP502 powershift e-Transmission configured with an on-engine generator, a heavy-duty Spicer 20D axle, and Spicer driveshafts.

Additionally, Dana's zero-emission drivetrain solution for drill rigs and utility vehicles employs the new Spicer Electrified eSG101 single-speed e-Gearbox combined with a Dana TM4 LD HV800 motor/inverter system. The combination improves mechanical efficiency at double input speed by up to 40% when compared with traditional designs.

Enhanced Design for Conveyor Gearboxes

At MINExpo, Dana is introducing an update for Brevini EvoMax helical and bevel-helical gearboxes used in mining conveyor applications.

The new alignment-free gearbox option integrates the fan within the motor mount bell housing, eliminating the requirement for an external frame. It delivers superior cooling capacity that reduces installation complexity and provides a smaller footprint.
