Periodic Reporting for period 1 - TPV 2500 (High performance hydraulic pump for off road mobile equipment)

Berichtszeitraum: 2020-01-01 bis 2020-04-30

Zusammenfassung vom Kontext und den Gesamtzielen des Projekts

The Off-Road Mobile Machinery sector is responsible for nearly 15% of the total NOx emissions and is also accountable for roughly 100 million tons of CO2 equivalent emissions annually, corresponding to 2% of the total greenhouse gas emissions in the EU27. This has led to mounting pressure on off-road original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) to improve fuel economy and efficiencies of the drive train and hydraulics. The axial piston pump is the core of the hydraulic system for many NRMM because they have the highest power density for mobility and actuating operations.
Our ultimate goal is to develop a series of ultra-efficient axial piston pumps -TPV2500- with a swash plate system that delivers radical fuel reductions making NRMM much cleaner while accelerating the NRMM market in the transition to a zero-emission technology establishing a cost-effective route to electrification.
1a.2 Work performed during the reporting period and main results achieved so far

We determined the optimisation criteria of the hydrostatic swash plate design and 11-piston cylinder barrel based on the feedback from customers’ trials. We detailed the technical requirements and feasibility of the next steps. We assessed the optimal method for effective integration of automotive control system in various diesel engine/hybrid electric engine configurations. We outlined the technical needs for the industrialisation of TPV 2500. We detailed assessment of the axial piston hydraulic pump market (size, growth, competition, trends…) to refine market potential for TPV2500. We conducted comprehensive patent search, IP protection strategy, FTO evaluation, risk evaluation. Finally, we prepared a business plan with commercialisation plan detailing route to market, market launch schedule, growth projection.

Fortschritte, die über den aktuellen Stand der Technik hinausgehen und voraussichtliche potenzielle Auswirkungen (einschließlich der bis dato erzielten sozioökonomischen Auswirkungen und weiter gefassten gesellschaftlichen Auswirkungen des Projekts)

Wide adoption of TPV2500 will lower carbon emissions by boosting the use of electrical mobile hydraulic equipment. Furthermore, the use of electrical mobile hydraulic equipment will result in 80% lower energy consumption compared to diesel machines, 20-35% lower exhaust emissions and less noise compared to diesel powered equipment which results in reduced noise exposure, a factor linked to sleep disturbance, hearing impairment and cardiovascular diseases.
Meanwhile, in the transition to electrical NRMM, TPV2500 will result in less fuel being burnt, leading to lower diesel engine emissions/exhaust emissions (reduction of fuel consumption and CO2 by up to 20% and less noise pollution). As such, ecological footprint is minimised as well as the exposure of humans to diesel engine exhaust.
