The Japan-based engine manufacturer says it will establish itself as an all-in-one systems integrator for smart electrified power solutions tailored to the application-specific needs of individual OEMs.
Highlights at bauma (October 24-30) will include an electrified demonstration vehicle that shows the practical application of the company’s system integrator technologies. Powered by an efficient electric drive and hard working 48-volt batteries with fast charging capability, Yanmar says the electric excavator is a quiet, zero-emission machine designed to meet the most demanding emissions restrictions. It adds that the machine is an example of Yanmar’s system integrator applications technology, integrating power and control systems with advanced applications management in a versatile and easy to use machine.
Yanmar will also be showing the environmentally-friendly technology from its April acquisition of modular battery systems company ELEO. Yanmar says this acquisition will further its electrified powertrain capabilities with versatile, customized solutions for off-road applications. ELEO is building a new battery production plant, increasing its annual battery production capacity tenfold to 500MWh – equivalent of approximately 10,000 battery packs.
bauma also sees the launch of the new 5-Year Warranty (or 5,000 hours), which Yanmar says further enhances the sustainability and extended ownership of its current line-up of clean diesel solutions during the transformation to carbon-neutral power solutions. This extended warranty is free of charge and valid for TN Series engines sold in Europe and operating on European territory.
As Yanmar transitions to an advanced supplier of electrified solutions, the company says it remains true to its core values of durability, reliability, quality and robustness, together with the commitment to be a reliable and trusted partner for customers - values the company has lived by for more than 110 years.
Tomohisa Tao, president Yanmar Power Technology, commented: “As Yanmar looks to meet the challenges of the coming century, our transformation will encompass new products with alternative fuel technologies. Our aim, together with our dealers and OEM partners, in this strategy is to build stronger relationships and create even greater customer value with new-energy technology. We will work hard to support our OEM partners and customers to achieve their environmental and performance goals.”
