LDU transmissions
An LDU hydrostatic transmission features a U-style layout and contains a closed-circuit variable-displacement piston pump with direct displacement control (DDC) and a fixed motor. Optimized for performance, size, and cost to meet the demands of today's mobile applications, these transmissions are available with displacements between 20 cm3 and 31.5 cm3 [1.22 in3 and 1.92 in3].
