What is PTO in Gearbox?

PTO stands for Power Take-Off and it is a mechanism in a gearbox that transfers power from the engine to other equipment. It is commonly used in agricultural machinery and industrial applications. The PTO in a gearbox allows the engine power to be utilized for various tasks, such as operating attachments like mowers, tillers, and pumps, without the need for a separate engine.
