Hägglunds Drives is an integrated part of Bosch Rexroth. The Hägglunds product name can still be found on the tough and reliable Hägglunds products and drive systems. A Hägglunds direct drive system comprises a hydraulic motor and a flexibly placed drive unit, overseen by a control and monitoring system. Mounted directly on the driven shaft, the compact motor supplies reliable power. The force and direction of the motor’s rotation is determined by the fast-acting hydraulic pumps in the drive unit, while the control and monitoring system provides information and advanced functionality. Supporting these components is a wide range of valves and accessories, creating even greater flexibility in installation and operation.

The Bosch Rexroth facility in Grove City, Ohio is the headquarters for Large Hydraulic Drives (Hägglunds products) in the U.S.
