Competent Partner for Electric Drive Solutions

Competent Partner for Electric Drive Solutions

In recent years, Hatz has developed into a technology-open drive specialist. This also includes the collaborative development of electric drive systems. Hatz supports machine manufacturers with a modular system for implementing alternative drive concepts and enables machines to be sustainably optimised with new features through a holistic approach.

Combining Expertise in Electrical Engineering and Applications

In 2021, Hatz acquired the Munich-based company Inecosys. Inecosys specializes in electronic controls and embedded software, and has since supported Hatz in the development of alternative drive systems. Drawing on decades of knowledge about the needs of machine manufacturers and operators from Hatz’s target industries, manufacturers of construction, municipal, agricultural, and power generation machines can rely on maximum competence in implementing innovative drive and machine concepts.

Inecosys brings short paths and rapid processes from the startup scene into the collaborative work with machine manufacturers, ensuring high implementation speed. Electronic components and software modules can be tailored, developed, or adapted to the machine’s requirements. Hatz provides competence in mechanical engineering, mechanical design, and structural mechanical simulation, as well as the capacity to enable series production of the desired drive systems. System simulation and optimization round out the customer offering.

Purpose Design Approach

Hatz works on the realization of electric drive systems using to the "Purpose Design Approach". This approach focuses on utilizing all possibilities of the chosen drive technology for the machine. The machine is envisioned holistically from the ground up. In this way, features can be realized that are not possible merely by replacing the engine technology, for instance, substituting an internal combustion engine with an electric motor.

The Modular System

With the Concept Cube, Hatz demonstrates the highest level of customization that is possible with the modular e-drive system. Hatz supports machine manufacturers in developing and implementing innovative, disruptive machine concepts with its own technological expertise. The electric drive system provides the appropriate tools for this.

As a competent development partner at eye level, Hatz provides its comprehensive expertise in drive technology and automation. The machine manufacturer does not need to invest time and resources in developing its own knowledge of these components and functions. The customer determines the extent of Hatz's support. Thanks to the modular system, the customer can individually choose where they wish to receive support.

Concept Cube Study

Hatz demonstrates the advantages of developing disruptive machine concepts based on the modular drive system with the concept study "Concept Cube". Hatz has developed a novel drive system for this demonstration machine that extends the application of the "Vibrating Plate" to previously unattainable applications, such as cornering.
