Collaboration and innovation drive the
transition to electric vehicles in industrial vehicles as two
transportation industry leaders advance the state of the art
together.
RACINE, Wis.,
Jan. 9,
2024 /PRNewswire/ -- As part of its
industry-leading efforts to electrify critical off-highway
machinery, Bosch Rexroth today announced a partnership with leading
thermal management manufacturer Modine (NYSE: MOD). The two
organizations are collaborating to bring Modine EVantage (™)
thermal management systems to the Bosch Rexroth portfolio of eLION
products for electrified off-highway machinery worldwide. Together,
Rexroth eLION systems with Modine EVantage thermal management
systems advance the electrification of customer platforms in the
off-highway segment by delivering low emissions and
high-performance EV technology.
"With the increased shift towards electrified mobile machines,
there's a parallel need to manage the thermal output of those
crucial components efficiently," said Zifan Liu, Bosch Rexroth
Mobile Hydraulics System Engineer. "This partnership represents a
collaborative effort to effectively address that issue and present
end-users with the most productive machine possible."
Bosch Rexroth worked with Modine because of its specialization
in complete commercial EV thermal management systems. Modine
designed a fully integrated, liquid-cooled thermal management
solution for the eLION portfolio. The eLION portfolio includes a
permanent magnet synchronous electric motor, electric inverter,
onboard charger, DC-DC converter, power distribution unit, high
voltage cables with plugs, and a controller. The thermal management
system from Modine works seamlessly with the eLION portfolio
to maintain optimal battery temperature, efficiently cool power
electronics, and ensure passenger comfort.
"Over a century ago, Modine set out to transform thermal
management for the transportation sector, and today, in partnership
with Bosch Rexroth, we're tracing back our roots to meet the
evolving needs of electrified mobile off-highway machinery," said
Gina Maria Bonini, Vice President
and General Manager of Advanced Thermal Systems at Modine. "This
collaboration allows us to leverage our state-of-the-art heat
exchanger technology and intelligent electronic products to deliver
the optimal thermal conditions for the critical battery and
electronic components on which Bosch Rexroth customers rely."
