At bauma 2025, Bosch Rexroth demonstrates how electrified Off-Highway machines can become more productive and safer with scalable digital solution modules and how they can be developed faster, easier and more cost-effectively

  • Efficient development: new hardware and software modules and tools
  • Simple operation: collision avoidance and other assistance systems
  • Sustainability: efficient operation for all drive types

The demand for efficient, productive and easy-to-operate Off-Highway vehicles is increasing the complexity of machine development.

Bosch Rexroth supports vehicle manufacturers in meeting these challenges with a comprehensive solution portfolio.
At bauma 2025, the company presents new hardware and software modules for automation, electrification, connectivity and efficiency. The scalable and open-technology approach, including new hydraulic solutions from HydraForce, covers different machine sizes, drive types and objectives. This enables OEMs to equip themselves quickly and precisely with economical driving, assistance and work functions and thus set themselves apart from competition.
With Bosch Rexroth as a technology partner for the entire machine fleet, manufacturers can minimize development effort and focus more on machine and driving characteristics. Scalable solution modules relieve OEMs of time-consuming groundwork in order to design machines more efficiently, including functional safety and simplify operation. Financial risks are also avoided, as the solution modules take into account all relevant standards and regulations.

Efficient development

One example of simplification in engineering is validated software modules that can be freely electrification portfolio, which now also covers the low-voltage range. The joint control platform eLION Power-and-Motion Control for low- and high-voltage on-board electrical systems ensures more efficient operation of electrified construction machinery in addition to cross-model synergy effects.
The enhanced EMP motor-generator series and the new compact MPR Performance Radial piston motor for small machines save valuable installation space, weight and energy. Also new is the modular RM Global valve platform which as a modular replacement for the well-known M4 valve, it covers the lower and medium flow range in a more flexible and efficient manner. The leading Onboard Electronics (OBE) in the agricultural sector have also been adapted for construction machinery.
The load and control valves from Rexroth Compact Hydraulics including the EDG, EDH, E-Valve and H-Valve series complement the innovative solutions from HydraForce, which was acquired in 2023. Highlights include the high-flow and energy-efficient Digital Boom Control Valve EHBL with the user-friendly HF-Impulse 2.0 programming tool and the oil condition sensor developed in collaboration with Tan Delta Systems. This sensor monitors fluid quality in real time, enabling proactive maintenance and helping to prevent unplanned downtime.
