Industrial machinery manufacturer Hägglunds’ Quantum range of hydraulic motors is “going beyond established barriers”, with its combination of torque and speed paired with efficiency. “For direct drives in heavy-duty applications, it creates a powerful new reality,” says Hägglunds.

The Hägglunds Quantum range shapes proven strengths into an “extraordinary” new performance curve. It offers a top speed of over 150 rpm and provides a sustainable maximum torque of more than 350 kNm. At corner power, where the two extremes meet, users can achieve 3 MW – without sacrificing compactness or efficiency.

“The Hägglunds Quantum range rewrites the rules of power density, especially when it comes to efficiency at higher speeds. By stretching the limits so far beyond previous solutions, it introduces possibilities for greener operation, mobile applications and more,” says Hägglunds sales VP Wolfram Ulrich.

One Range,Two Powerful Aspects
Within the Hägglunds Quantum range are two motors, the Hägglunds Quantum and the Hägglunds Quantum Power.

Hägglunds Quantum is the new name for the Hägglunds CB, which has evolved so significantly over time that it “can no longer be considered the same motor”. Tweaks in design and materials have increased its efficiency and tripled its life expectancy, making it the ideal basis for Hägglunds’ bold new step.

The Hägglunds Quantum Power, meanwhile, merges a slim new connection block with this reliable foundation. Through additional ports and innovative internal design, the block enables far higher speeds while retaining full torque capacity at high efficiency.

Consequently, the Hägglunds Quantum Power can deliver high power with greater economy and sustainability than any previous solution.

“The two parts of the Hägglunds Quantum range – Hägglunds Quantum and Hägglunds Quantum Power – create a seamless curve without gaps in speed or torque,” says Ulrich.

“One part reflects the constant, long-term improvement that we pursue in all Hägglunds solutions. The other is a result of radical new thinking – a true quantum leap.”
