​DEVELOPMENT OF A
MODULAR EAV PLATFORM

​For small series commercial vehicles of different types and sizes

Modular EAV platform VARI-E scalable and flexible with outsourced battery modules for commercial vehicles and municipal vehicles

The development of this highly flexible and scalable electric platform offers numerous advantages:

  • Scalable wheelbase

  • Scalable motor and transmission ratio

  • Space in the central underfloor area, e.g., for cleaning machines

  • Interchangeable batteries, mounted externally (quick deployment, e.g., for emergency vehicles)

  • Four-wheel steering through uniform "corner modules"

  • Special vehicles often cover only short distances, making diesel inefficient

  • Low maintenance requirements

  • Simple, cost-effective frame construction

​Prototype construction in our in-house prototype workshop

Kärcher MC 50, 130 & 200

​Development of vehicle systems and work equipment for sweepers

Autonomous and manually operated high-performance sweepers with electric or conventional drives – for these, we develop components and systems for the vehicle itself, as well as working equipment and other peripheral components, offering innovative engineering services:

  • Design and calculation of vehicle components and systems (chassis, suspension, exterior, working equipment)

  • Powertrain: Implementation of high-performance drivetrains

  • Electrics and electronics: Development, manufacturing, control, and networking

  • Engineering expertise in metallic and composite materials

​Conversion of truck tractors to hydrogen fuel cell drives

Through adjustments to the body and chassis, we support the conversion of truck tractors to hydrogen fuel cell propulsion.

​

In this project, we handled the development of the frame and chassis, and also offer services such as:

  • Design and calculation of vehicle components and systems (chassis, suspension, exterior)

  • Powertrain: Implementation of high-performance drivetrains

  • Electrical and electronics: Development, manufacturing, control, and networking

  • Expertise in engineering with metallic and composite materials
