Calibration and complexity
Off-highway engine applications continue to increase in complexity
to meet emissions regulations and fuel economy targets as well as
to take advantage of advances in electrification and mechatronics.
The model-based calibration process has become the industry
standard.
ECU advances take many paths
Controllers are evolving rapidly, with a range of microcontrollers
distributed throughout the vehicle
Working remotely
A new electrohydraulic steering technology that offers energy
efficiency improvement, increased productivity, enhanced safety,
and adaptability to operating conditions also has the capacity to
support remote operation of a compact wheel loader.
