Electro-hydraulic steering valve used with mechanical steering wheel. Certified - SIL 2 fail safe. Applications with quick steering and auto-guidance (GPS). Interface to joystick and electric steering wheel.
Electro-hydraulic steering valve used for steer-by-wire systems requiring high flow rates. Certified - SIL 2 fail safe. Applications with quick steering and auto-guidance (GPS). Interface to joystick and electric steering wheel.
Electric steering wheel input device with passive force-feedback used for steer-by-wire systems. Certified - SIL 2 fail safe. Improving operator comfort and ergonomics. Variable steering ratio and smooth steering feel.
Steering wheel sensor is used to detect the absolute position and speed of a mechanical steering wheel. Used in applications with variable steering ratio and closed loop set-ups where steering wheel position and vehicle steering angle have to match.
FENDT launched the first combine harvester equipped with IDEALDrive – a machine you steer with a joystick, not a traditional steering wheel.
With more commercially available steering input options, including mini-wheels and joysticks, it was trendy to switch to a new method. We had multiple discussions with our customers about steering solutions that were very much driven by the current trend. Ergonomic benefits of joystick steering, for example, were implied, but we couldn’t prove anything.
Farmers need agricultural machines that deliver the same high productivity every season. Hydraulic solutions from Danfoss ensure world-class performance from each machine, and a comfortable, stress-free working environment for their operators.
Space is limited on construction sites, and there are people working everywhere. Contractors need machines that can safely maneuver in a tight spot. At the same time they still need to be powerful enough to get the job done. At Danfoss, we deliver the components, software, and controls that enable your machines to run safely, efficiently and effectively.
Advanced hydraulic systems from Danfoss deliver the machine performance that ensures road builders can meet their deadlines.
All-wheel steering is one example of how Danfoss is at the forefront of machine versatility. This helps customers getting the most out of their equipment. Electrohydraulic steering system enables operators to manually adjust the steering mode, allowing them to best match machine performance to the task at hand.
To remain competitive in today’s agricultural equipment market, OEMs are offering satellite-based, automatic steering solutions.
Our fail-safe steer-by-wire solutions allow you to remove the steering column. You can then replace it with smaller, precise steering mechanisms such as a joystick or mini-wheel.
Danfoss continues to lead the way with advanced, electrohydraulic joystick steering solutions. These offer design flexibility for you, superior machine controllability and performance for your customers.
Vario-Steer™ enhances off-highway vehicle handling by dynamically adjusting steering response to the machine’s speed - delivering precision when needed, and stability when it matters most.
Danfoss offers an exceptional hydraulic solution that effectively reduces jerky motion in articulated vehicles. By integrating wide-angle and progressive flow-amplifying technology into the Xtreme-Steer product family, Danfoss provides a smoother and more precise steering experience, resulting in enhanced overall performance and operator comfort.
