INDUSTRIAL VEHICLE TECHNOLOGY MARCH 2022: PAGE 28 Menu * Page View * Smart View * Issue List * Advertisers * Podcast * Website * Feed DAVID SMITH, iVT INTERNATIONAL New electric FOR POWER DENSITY, TRADITIONAL HYDRAULICS MAY BE HARD TO BEAT, BUT SEVERAL MANUFACTURERS ARE MAKING GREAT STRIDES IN THE USE OF HYBRIDISATION AND ELECTROHYDRAULICS Despite the rise in the use of electrics, traditional hydraulics are still the go-to solution for power density in industrial vehicles. Most OEMs believe purely electromechanical solutions are not viable for the majority of vehicles, at least for now. However several companies – including Volvo CE, Danfoss, Caterpillar and Bucher Hydraulics – are making advances in the use of electrohydraulics, arguably one of the most efficient ways to reduce emissions. Volvo CE goes electric Last year Volvo CE revealed an innovative new electrohydraulic system architecture for excavators, which landed the Volvo Group’s technology award in September. Volvo worked together with the Finnish company Norrhydro to develop the Common Pressure Rail Hybrid system. Using a Volvo EC300E 30-tonne excavator as a test bed, the approach passed initial proof-of-concept phase and durability tests, and moved on to field tests. Prototypes were used in real-world applications by selected customer partners. Volvo CE expects to offer the system on its excavators by 2024 at the latest. The partnership began when Volvo CE engineers came across a research paper introducing the nascent technology, which had been originally developed by Norrhydro and academics at Tampere University, also in Finland. 28 iVTInternational.com March 2022 ISSUE ARTICLES NEW ELECTRIC HORIZONS DAVID SMITH Visit Article.
