Your development partner for electrified machinesReach your goal quickly with pre-validated systems and tried-and-tested components

When you think of e-mobility, does your mind go straight to the automotive industry? Then you're overlooking the potential of electrification: accounting for 25% of the EU's total greenhouse gas emissions, the transport sector in particular is subject to strict guidelines. In addition to cars, this also includes commercial vehicles and mobile machines. Compact construction machines benefit from electrification, particularly in urban areas. But large, powerful machines are also becoming electric, whether it's in mining or at airports.

With innovative solutions for e-mobility, HYDAC can support you on your journey towards zero emissions: with many years of experience and an extensive knowledge of machine architectures, we're your partner for development expertise when it comes to electrified mobile machines. Our experts assess your challenges and offer you custom solutions that will prove themselves today and in the future – from components and subsystems to complete series development.

Discover our range of electric drives & battery systems

Let's start where electrification begins. With the energy. Because at the heart of every electrified machine is its core components: a robust battery and an efficient drive. With INVENOX as part of the HYDAC group of companies, we're able to offer you the solution – our jointly developed lithium-ion battery system has an outstanding energy density thanks to its single-piece design and compact arrangement of the battery cells. And there's another HYDAC company that's important: ENGIRO. As a technology leader for highly efficient, innovative electric drives and drivetrain solutions, we offer you an answer to the demanding environmental challenges in our rapidly changing world.

HYDAC HY-ROS mounting solutions for high-voltage cables

High electrical voltages that supply drive components in hybrid and electric vehicles (BEV/PHEV) pose a major challenge. This is because optimised mounting solutions are essential, especially when it comes to high-voltage cables that transport electricity in the vehicle's on-board electrical system. HYDAC offers you a wide range of solutions for mounting and routing your cables with additional features such as tolerance compensation, heat reduction, cable protection, friction minimisation and cable spacing, to name but a few.

Control technology, software & system integration

With increasing directives and legislation, electrifying mobile machines is no longer just an optional extra. It's gradually becoming the standard. But electrified architectures are complex – and the complexity is increasing. What counts here in particular is all the components and their interfaces interacting in the best possible way. This makes the demands on system design and integration all the greater. Our goal: to help our customers shorten their development times. Our solution: standardisation & modularisation. With expertise in the fields of functional and electrical safety, we're your perfect partner for software development and systems development in the electric machine industry.
