2 2 Expertise and Reliability Our Secret: Experience and Innovation Hydraulics and electronics are our passion and so it has been for more than 50 years. With efficiency and perseverance, we are constantly developing new solutions for the toughest conditions and applications of our customers machines. You too can benefit from our experience and our service. For us, setting new standards is a tradition Perfection is achieved by continually improving something that is already good. In electronics, hydraulics, and in the harmonized interaction of components, we are constantly breaking down our own barriers. This is why we run Application Centers for the different fields of mobile hydraulics, such as material handling systems, construction machinery, commercial vehicles, agricultural and forestry machines. In all these areas, our engineers bring together experience, knowledge and trends from the various applications. We draw parallels, dream up new ideas and expand our horizons. The result is new experiences, new solutions, and even greater versatility. Through this process, such innovations as load sensing, LUDV, CAN bus, ABS, and ESP were born. And you can be the direct beneficiary. Only tried-and-tested parts go into production Rexroth s components are designed to cope with the toughest condition of all: everyday life. The requirements facing hydraulics and electronics in the forklift truck are extreme but quality doesn t happen by chance. Precisely defined processes in development, testing and production result in high-quality products. For this reason, we only use components that satisfy Rexroth s stringent, internationally uniform quality require-

3 3 ments. A component only goes into production once it is perfect in terms of function, efficiency and interaction with other components. And it is precisely this fact that results in the harmonic, perfect interplay of all Rexroth components. Proximity to the customer is important to us wherever you are You will find Rexroth production sites, sales branches, and service support centers in over 80 countries. We are at home in all applications of mobile hydraulics, and our presence can be seen in all the markets of the world. That is why we are aware of the requirements and trends of the various sectors. And this versatility enables us to overcome a huge range of challenges in the most varied sectors. This also forms the basis of our ability to specialize in many areas at the same time. Over 10,000 products in the areas of axial piston pumps, external gear pumps, radial piston motors, valves, and electronics provide us with an enormous range of solutions. We have the products you have the choice! Make the most of our experience At Rexroth, we have been working on hydraulics for forklift trucks for 40 years. Where electronics are concerned, together with our colleagues at Bosch we set the highest standards. It is not without reason that Bosch has stood for expertise in all things automotive for over 100 years. What more could you ask for?

4 4 Sturdy and always up to the job Outstanding Hydraulics or Reliable Electronics? Attain the Best of Both Worlds, with Rexroth Rexroth systems and components are unique and not just in terms of their quality and reliability. The buildingblock principle and modular design of our components make our systems versatile and individual at the same time. Virtually everything can be combined and best of all that is what our components are intended for. The result is our amazing flexibility and versatility for almost all types and performance classes of forklift trucks. Valves and valve blocks a versatile foundation for good ideas Our range of technical solutions is as varied as the forklift truck s areas of application: monoblock or segment design, modular valve blocks in cartridge or Cetop versions. We are masters of the different technologies and offer the optimum solution for every application. In our valve blocks, valves are linked according to the functions you require, and supplied ready for installation as a made-to-measure system. With a high level of integration, on-board electronics, and design-to-cost, our systems promise a decisive competitive advantage for modern material handling solutions. Precision and ergonomics in the forklift truck The decisive factor is the driver without his expert hand the machine has no use. In order for man and machine to truly form a single unit, at Rexroth we pay particular attention to ergonomics. Our precisely controlled steering systems, the finely modulated brakes and precision operator controls are made with just these criteria in mind, and therefore ensure efficient material handling. External gear pumps a tried-and-tested principle The most practical and efficient: Rexroth external gear pumps are renowned for their high efficiency and low noise emissions as solo pumps, multiple pump arrangements or in combination with an axial piston pump. We achieve this through special design features and high-precision manufacturing technology. Compact and ready-to-install The modular principle and construction means that the robust and reliable power packs from Rexroth provide versatile solutions for a wide range of equipment and load capacity classes. In addition, power packs offer a range of options for system optimization.

5 Hydrostatic travel drives efficient and adaptable Powerful acceleration and hard braking, reversing, gentle start-up and highprecision positioning all this can only be achieved with a hydrostatic travel drive. Its control embodies two concepts. For one, the automotive hydraulic drive control simple and tried-and-tested. This alone lends the hydrostatic travel drive almost all of its capabilities. In addition, the electronic drive control incorporates the travel drive in the forklift management system as a whole constant speed drive, lift speed and optimized consumption and noise during operation are just some of the options made possible as a result. Here, too, Rexroth offers a broad range of different solutions with us, you re sure to find the ideal technology, whatever the application. Axial piston pumps for working hydraulics Load sensing systems are on the advance. Having proven their worth in large stackers for many years already, variable displacement pumps are increasingly being employed in industrial lift trucks, too. Hydraulic systems offer decisive advantages in terms of economy thanks to their minimal space requirements and low power loss. As a result, they permit the use of smaller combustion engines, and achieve a higher power output despite their reduced power consumption. Electronics with the Bosch factor In the forklift truck, electronics are in an extreme environment. Heat, cold, damp, jolting, and electromagnetic radiation are all sources of interference against which the system has to be resistant. Therefore, during the development phase each of our components is put through the toughest tests subject to the same high quality standards that Bosch uses in the automotive industry. And as if that wasn t enough, our electronics for working machines are even manufactured on the same production lines as Bosch s automotive electronics. That is why you can always rely on our electronics, even under the most extreme conditions.
