At Rotontek, we’ve spent 15 years refining solutions that make industrial mobility smoother, quieter, and more reliable. Two components that stand out in our lineup are the electric transaxle and electro hydraulic actuator—each playing a unique role, but together creating systems that transform how industries like logistics, agriculture, and urban mobility operate.
How Electric Transaxles Form the Foundation of Low-Speed Vehicles
An electric transaxle is the workhorse of low-speed off-highway vehicles, integrating the motor, gearbox, and axle into a single, compact unit. Our design focuses on durability: all gears are forged from alloy steel and precision-ground to minimize friction, which directly reduces noise—a key requirement for environments like hospitals or urban centers. For manufacturers building golf carts, utility vehicles, or small logistics trucks, this means simplified installation (no need to source separate components) and consistent performance under heavy loads, from 500kg to 5,000kg.
What sets our transaxles apart is their adaptability. Whether paired with a medical mobility vehicle or an agricultural cart, they adjust to varying terrains—from smooth warehouse floors to uneven farmland—without sacrificing efficiency. This flexibility has made them a staple for clients in over 40 countries, from North American golf courses to European urban delivery fleets.
Electro Hydraulic Actuators: Precision in Motion Control
While the electric transaxle handles movement, our electro hydraulic actuator manages the finer, critical motions—like lifting cargo beds, adjusting platform heights, or tilting attachments. Built with an all-in-one structure (no external hoses, so no risk of leaks), these actuators deliver precise force control, even in dusty construction sites or humid agricultural settings.
For engineers designing automated guided vehicles (AGVs) or cleaning machinery, this precision is non-negotiable. Imagine a warehouse robot that needs to lift pallets to exact heights: our actuators ensure repeatable accuracy within millimeters, reducing errors and improving workflow. They’re also energy-efficient, drawing minimal power from the same battery system that powers the transaxle—extending operational time between charges.
Why Combining These Technologies Matters
When an electric transaxle and electro hydraulic actuator work in tandem, the result is a system that’s greater than the sum of its parts. For example, a logistics trolley equipped with both can move smoothly across a warehouse (thanks to the transaxle) and lift heavy boxes with pinpoint precision (via the actuator). This integration simplifies maintenance, as both components are designed to communicate seamlessly, and reduces the need for multiple power sources.
Conclusion
At Rotontek, we don’t just sell components—we deliver systems that solve real-world problems. Our electric transaxles and electro hydraulic actuators are engineered to work together, offering manufacturers, wholesalers, and fleet operators a reliable path to electrification. Whether you’re building a medical transport vehicle or an agricultural utility cart, these technologies ensure efficiency, quiet operation, and adaptability.
