Our unique Digital Displacement® pump is suitable for diesel, hybrid and fully electric off-highway machines.
Digital Displacement pumps – improved off-highway efficiency – whichever future you choose

- Smoother faster control means more work done per day
- Improved engine-to-work efficiency means increased maximum power – with the same size engine
- Intelligent digital controls mean individual cylinders are only called into action when required, reducing losses system-wide

- Smoother faster control means work efficiency
- Improved engine-to-work efficiency gives the opportunity to downsize engines, without any loss of power or control
- Controllability is defined in software. This means we can change the machine dynamics to suit the operator

- Reduce overall energy consumption
- Increase duty cycle – lower opex
- Reduce battery size – lower capex
- A technology which is applicable to diesel, hybrid or electric vehicles – a future-proof option, whichever future you choose
We are experts in digital mobile hydraulics
By replacing a standard pump with a digitally enabled pump, our customers enjoy improved productivity and control for better fuel consumption and the potential to downsize engines or battery packs. It is a technology which delivers benefits today and will be equally beneficial tomorrow - whichever route you take.
- Smoother faster control means more work done per day
- Improved engine-to-work efficiency means increased maximum power - with the same size engine. Or the opportunity to downsize engines, without any loss of power or control
- Intelligent digital controls mean individual cylinders are only called into action when required, reducing losses system-wide
- This means longer work-cycles or smaller batteries for next-generation electric machines
Digital Displacement® Innovation center
Each Danfoss Digital Displacement pump will be assembled at our new global Digital Displacement manufacturing and R&D facility near Edinburgh, Scotland.
Here we have developed a ground-breaking, dynamic manufacturing facility which brings a new approach to precision assembly. This will ensure quality at every stage.
The fully flexible facility has been custom designed from the ground up. Helping to assemble a new generation of Digital Displacement pumps for off-highway and industrial customers.
Production has already begun, with the first customer pumps rolling off the line in August.
