At Bauma 2025, Bosch Rexroth will reveal how electrified off-highway machines can change into extra productive and safer with scalable digital answer modules and the way they are often developed sooner, simpler and extra cost-effectively
The demand for environment friendly, productive and easy-to-operate off-highway autos is rising the complexity of machine growth. Bosch Rexroth helps car producers in assembly these challenges with a complete answer portfolio. At Bauma 2025, the corporate will current new {hardware} and software program modules for automation, electrification, connectivity and effectivity. The scalable and open-technology method, together with new hydraulic options from HydraForce, covers totally different machine sizes, drive varieties and targets. This permits OEMs to equip themselves shortly and exactly with economical driving, help and work capabilities and thus set themselves aside from competitors.
With Bosch Rexroth as a know-how accomplice for the whole machine fleet, producers can minimise growth effort and focus extra on machine and driving traits. Scalable answer modules relieve OEMs of time-consuming groundwork to be able to design machines extra effectively, together with purposeful security and simplify operation. Monetary dangers are additionally prevented, as the answer modules consider all related requirements and laws.
Environment friendly growth
One instance of simplification in engineering is validated software program modules that may be freely modified as a part of the Strive it First idea. The brand new BODAS Studio growth surroundings, primarily based on a standardised, open software program structure with a variety of integration choices reminiscent of MATLAB and Simulink from MathWorks, saves time when producing code. Younger and skilled specialists obtain certified solutions to growth questions through the myBODAS collaboration platform, which additionally gives a complete information database with AI-supported search and free entry to the BODAS software program modules.
Software program-defined autos require Over-The-Air (OTA) companies to roll out updates and new capabilities. BODAS Join meets this requirement with an answer for OTA mass updates that additionally contains UDS-compliant controllers in blended E/E environments. The newly launched RCU Lite Connectivity Machine supplies an financial entry to telematics.
Simple-to-operate machines
Semi-automated capabilities and superior help programs allow larger security and productiveness on the development website, even with much less skilled working personnel, for which Bosch Rexroth gives flexibly adaptable answer platforms. One instance is the brand new Collision Avoidance System (CAS), which allows efficient collision safety. The simply built-in CAS exactly detects objects and other people utilizing radar, ultrasound and sensible cameras, warns of impending collisions or decelerates the car till emergency braking. The Kinematic Place Sensing (KPS) together with a number of inertial sensors present the technical foundation for semi-automated capabilities reminiscent of weighing, digital partitions or grading on slopes.
Extra effectivity
Bosch Rexroth covers the whole chain of motion from the joystick to the management system and sensors to the journey drive and dealing hydraulics. Throughout all drive varieties and machine sizes, the main focus is on environment friendly options – for instance drive programs and applied sciences in addition to the eLION electrification portfolio, which now additionally covers the low-voltage vary. The joint management platform eLION Energy & Movement Management for low- and high-voltage on-board electrical programs ensures extra environment friendly operation of electrified development equipment along with cross-model synergy results.
The improved EMP motor-generator sequence and the brand new compact MPR Efficiency Radial piston motor for small machines save worthwhile set up area, weight and vitality. Additionally new is the modular RM World valve platform which as a modular substitute for the well-known M4 valve, it covers the decrease and medium stream vary in a extra versatile and environment friendly method. The main Onboard Electronics (OBE) within the agricultural sector have additionally been tailored for development equipment.
The load and management valves from Rexroth Compact Hydraulics together with the EDG, EDH, E-Valve and H-Valve sequence complement the revolutionary options from HydraForce, which was acquired in 2023. Highlights embody the high-flow and energy-efficient Digital Growth Management Valve EHBL with the user-friendly HF-Impulse 2.0 programming software and the oil situation sensor developed in collaboration with Tan Delta Techniques. This sensor displays fluid high quality in actual time, enabling proactive upkeep and serving to to forestall unplanned downtime.
