SAP DIN Optimised + ePTO
24/9/2024
The development of electric operation on trucks has taken great strides forward, with significant advances in both battery technology and powertrain technology. There is a strong trend towards longer range and increased efficiency, which is crucial for electric trucks to be able to compete with traditional diesel-powered vehicles.
ePTO systems (Electric Power Take-Off) is a technology that contributes to the transition to electric operation by replacing the traditional power take-off and enabling cranes and other attachments to work carbon dioxide-free and energy-efficient. Hydraulic systems also play an important role in trucks, especially when it comes to heavy lifting and maneuvering. As electrification continues, it is important to integrate these systems in a way that optimizes performance and energy efficiency.
SAP DIN Optimised is a series of light weight casing piston pumps with a fixed displacement for demanding mobile hydraulics. It is a variant of the standard SAP series, also suitable for electric motor drives due to the pump’s higher speed properties and lower noise level.
Sunfab has also developed a modular ePTO concept (Sunfab ePower) as part of developing solutions for electric operation for Sunfab's range of hydraulic pumps and motors.
"We are working on several ways for adaptation to today's and future's electrified vehicles, both around existing products and new development. The development of the ePTO concept is part of the development that we want to work on together with partners and manufacturers in the industry," says Johan Sundin, Product Manager at Sunfab.
All together, these innovations point to a bright future for electric trucks, where environmental impact is reduced while working conditions for drivers are improved.
