Combination of best-in-class hardware and software with system integration expertise to accelerate adoption of battery electric drivetrains across industries
BURLINGTON & COLLINGWOOD, ONTARIO – 23 February 2026 – The transition to electrification for off-road mobile equipment presents significant challenges and exciting opportunities. To accelerate adoption, global leaders in mobile application and automation technology, Bosch Rexroth, and heavy mobile equipment EV drivetrain integration specialists, MEDATech Engineering, are collaborating to offer customers access to full-spectrum electrification solutions, from componentry and software to application-specific design, build, and commissioning.
Bosch Rexroth’s products deliver an end-to-end high-voltage portfolio for off-highway applications, including a full range of electric motor-generators, inverters and accessories, as well as tailored gearboxes, hydraulics and software modules. MEDATech Engineering’s EV drivetrain design and integration know-how has contributed to customer deployments of 100+ battery electric and hybrid battery electric vehicles, across multiple industrial verticals and vehicle categories.
“Electrification is becoming central to building the next generation of sustainable mobile machinery,” says Ted O’Donnell, Head of Mobile Hydraulics, Bosch Rexroth Canada. “By combining Bosch Rexroth’s complete portfolio of electric and hydraulic systems with MEDATech’s specialized off-road integration expertise, we empower customers to adopt proven, real-world electric solutions more quickly and confidently.”
“Through our decade-plus of EV drivetrain product development, we’ve learned that the potential of electrification is often limited by a lack of integration capacity, where deep application knowledge is as crucial as technological know-how,” notes Paul Cholewa, AltDrive Divisional Manager, MEDATech Engineering. “Leveraging the latest electric drivetrain technologies to deliver optimal safety, economic, and environmental benefits is in MEDATech’s innovation program, and we are excited to collaborate with Bosch Rexroth to bring viable heavy mobile equipment electrification options to the world.”
