Bosch Rexroth Smart Hydraulic Components with Pumps, Motors and Control Block

Professional hydraulics for more performance

One step ahead with Smart Hydraulics: eOC and eCC

Smart Hydraulics Rexroth Solutions for Tractors, Cranes, Wheeled Loaders and Excavators

Bosch Rexroth offers an extensive portfolio of hydraulic components and system solutions. This makes us a valuable partner for manufacturers of off-highway mobile machines. Smart hydraulics describes the evolutionary next step in preparing this portfolio for future needs in off-highway machine design, such as operator assistance, automation, energy efficiency, electrification, comfort, scalability, and increased sustainability.

For this, components need smart and integrated sensors. Control functions need to be made adaptable by transferring them into software. Operating and performance data should be accessible via CAN communication. The keys to achieving this in a comprehensive portfolio of smart components are standardization and modularity. Standardization of actuators and sensors also enables standardization of software functions. Modularity in hardware and software makes it possible to scale solutions across various hydraulic systems and applications.

Discover the future of hydraulic components for off-highway mobile machines with eOC and eCC from Bosch Rexroth. Establish your foundation for tomorrow.

Smart solutions for open circuit applications

Bosch Rexroth eOC software platform for electronic control of mobile hydraulics

eOC

The eOC software platform targets the electronic control of open circuit hydraulic components and systems. It combines smart hydraulic components with a standardized and modular software architecture, allowing you to build your customized solution for the working functions of your mobile machine. In order to help you easily scale a chosen solution, our portfolio comprises three categories: eOC BODAS valve control, eOC BODAS pump control, and the combination of both: eOC system solutions.

eOC BODAS valve control

Electro-hydraulic actuation of a main control valve has been an industry standard for years, especially for agricultural machines. What is changing now is the proportion of electronic solutions that are integrated into modern off-highway machines. Operator assistance systems require real-time interaction of the main control valve with kinematic position sensors on the machine. Advanced tool handling requires flexible valve adjustments in operation. With eOC BODAS valve control, Bosch Rexroth is offering a solution package that meets all requirements: adaptable valve actuation functions, CAN joysticks and pedals, EH controlled main valves enabling assistance and automation functions.

eOC BODAS pump control

The pump is the heart of any hydraulically operated mobile working machine. It is the interface between the power supply and power distribution. Our new component driver, eOC BODAS pump control, optimizes both. With active CAN communication between the pump and diesel engine or electric motor, the available output power can be maximized in all operating conditions. At the same time, the adaptable pump control software ensures that the pump is always providing the volume and pressure needed by the implement system. eOC BODAS pump control is a game changer in hydraulic system design. It establishes the basis for future hydraulic architectures while increasing the efficiency and performance of any mobile working machine.

eOC system solutions

By combining eOC BODAS valve and pump control on a single electronic control unit, you will have a perfect basis for adding assistance and automation functions. Operator demands are directly translated into control characteristics for the pump and valve, and can be easily adapted to the intended machine function. Besides that, an intelligent auto-calibration routine ensures that all sensors and actuators maintain their performance over the lifetime of the machine. All eOC software solutions are built on a common modular architecture to enhance reliability, facilitate upgrades, and simplify the integration of additional functions. You want to minimize your efforts in engineering and software development? Start with eOC.

Smart solutions for closed circuit applications

Bosch Rexroth eCC software platform for electronic control of mobile hydraulics

eCC

Like the eOC platform, eCC builds on an established portfolio of closed-loop axial piston units and systems based on these. With that, Bosch Rexroth is transferring the hydro-mechanical control functions of axial piston units into electro-mechanics, and thus into software. Benefit from software-based behavior modeling, and conversely optimize the performance of your mobile machine sustainably. With this new component driver, Bosch Rexroth enables machine manufacturers to improve machine behavior as well as reliability and upstream engineering processes. Optimally adapt control modes and flexibly adjust pump dynamics during operation – with eCC BODAS pump control.

eCC BODAS pump control

With eCC BODAS pump control, Bosch Rexroth is introducing a new electronic component driver for axial piston pump functions in a closed hydraulic circuit. The aim is to reduce the hydraulic hardware to its essentials and to manage hydromechanical functions such as pressure cut-off and various control functions with the help of software. This simplifies the machine architecture and significantly eases engineering development for machine manufacturers. Operators will benefit from precise control of machine functions and the possibility rapid, individual adaptation of components to various machine conditions. In all off highway machinery - from construction, agricultural, material handling and forestry machines to municipal vehicles.
