Bodas RC 40 controllers

BOSCH REXROTH ITALIAN TRUCK ROADSHOW

Starting from three news versions of Bodas RC 40 controllers, a scalable and modular system for the optimal control of electrohydraulic components: small, medium and large. As is the case with the tried-and-tested 30 series, the three versions feature the same connectors so that machine manufacturers have flexible scaling options with the controllers when developing their products. The BODAS RC 40 controllers and the corresponding software carry out tasks both in the travel drive and in the working hydraulics of mobile machines.

Bosch Rexroth and Agriculture 4.0: vibration and tyre pressure control

Talking about control, the new Ivas sensors are designed to allow for intelligent analysis of machine vibrations. Thanks to Rexroth’s GFT 8150 TIS (Tire Inflation System) harvesters with individual-wheel drive can now be fitted with a tire pressure control system that seamlessly integrates into the machine and is operated via the standard terminal. Controlling the tire pressure of harvesters has numerous advantages. In view of different vehicle handling characteristics on roads and on fields, fuel can be saved and driving stability can be increased at the same time.
