ON-DEMAND WEBINAR
Integrated Systems are Key to Profitable Sustainability for OEMs
Watch this special event hosted by Parker and the WTWH Media Engagement Hub
With an increasing number of emission targets and sustainability mandates being implemented globally, many OEMs are beginning their journey toward electrification while others are well down the path with prototypes or already in production. The ROI and Total Cost of Ownership (TCO) are key for any OEM’s electrification journey and fortunately, the data shows that becoming more sustainable can also be profitable.
During this webinar, you will learn:
  • Benefits and challenges of integrated components for electric equipment.
  • Advantages of leveraging pre-engineered “plug and play” integrated ePumps.
  • How to maximize power ratings while minimizing battery consumption.
  • Tips to reduce installation and maintenance costs.
  • Enhanced thermal management elements critical to component life cycles.
  • Technological advancements in connectivity.

Electrification solutions from Parker Hannifin
Additional Information
Electrifying off-road equipment can be challenging. Original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) must balance battery cost with the power and range requirements of the machine without creating a price-prohibitive product. Striking this balance can be tricky. Luckily, Parker has decades of applications experience, which allows us to combine the best of hydraulics with the efficiency of electric to create flexible, sustainable solutions.
