Electrification of Non-Road Mobile Machinery (NRMM) raises the pivotal role of thermal management. Why is thermal management important? To ensure optimal thermal conditions for batteries, drivetrains, and other power components to maintain performance, safety standards and to extend electric range. We at Lumikko research and develop thermal management solutions for the various needs of electric off-highway vehicles. Our solutions are designed for a wide range of machinery, including hybrids and fully electric vehicles, from mining haul to harbour straddle carriers.
Optimized Thermal Management for Enhanced Performance
The electrification of NRMM poses unique challenges due to the varied environments and intense operating conditions these machines face. Effective thermal management is pivotal in maintaining battery efficiency, particularly in extreme temperatures such as in harbours or mines, and in preventing overheating of electronic components and motors. This not only safeguards the machinery but also enhances its performance and energy efficiency.
Advanced Cooling Systems
Our cooling solutions are designed to handle the intense heat generated by electric motors and power electronics in NRMM. By utilizing state-of-the-art cooling technologies, Lumikko ensures that your machinery operates within safe temperature thresholds, thereby extending the lifespan of its critical components and reducing maintenance needs.
Heating Solutions for Cold Environments
In colder climates, maintaining an optimal operating temperature for batteries and hydraulic systems is challenging yet essential. Lumikko’s heating solutions ensure that NRMM operates efficiently by preventing the loss of battery capacity and ensuring fluid viscosity remains within operational parameters, thus avoiding performance drops and potential mechanical issues.
Customized Solutions for Diverse Needs
Recognizing the diverse needs of the NRMM sector, we offer customized thermal management systems tailored to the specific requirements of each type of machinery. Whether it’s a mining loader or straddle carrier, our systems are designed to deliver top performance tailored to the unique demands of each application.
Sustainability and Compliance
Adhering to stringent emissions and environmental standards is more critical than ever. Our thermal management solutions contribute to reducing the ecological footprint of NRMM by supporting the transition to cleaner and more sustainable operational practices. Compliance with regulations such as the European Union’s NRMM Regulation ensures that our products meet the highest standards of environmental stewardship and technical excellence.
