Success for SAUER BIBUS at the Agritechnica

ICVD drive technology conquers Europe

Participation at this year's Agritechnica, the world's largest trade fair for agricultural technology in Hanover, was a huge success for Neu-Ulm company SAUER BIBUS GmbH. SAUER BIBUS has specialised in the development and configuration of hydraulic drives and controls and, together with GKN Walterscheid, presented the ICVD drive, which increasingly is also being used on agricultural machinery, to the trade public at the trade fair.  For the first time, an Italian manufacturer also presented the ICVD drive in its telescopic ladders at the trade fair.

The focus of the trade fair event for SAUER BIBUS at the Agritechnica in Hanover, was the hydrostatic ICVD drive. The success of the special drive is based on its large-angle technology. A hydraulic motor with a 45° large angle technology means the whole speed range becomes continuously variable. This means that machines that are used at higher speeds can do without a manual gearbox. For the operating personnel this means a clear gain in convenience and safety, as the driver can concentrate fully on driving his machine.

The ICVD is already being used as drive technology by manufacturers of large agricultural machinery. The Italian manufacturer DIECI has also presented vehicles with the ICVD drive from SAUER BIBUS for the first time at this year's trade fair in Hanover. "Thus, our drive concept has also made the leap into international use", commented Ralf Schrempp, Managing Director of SAUER BIBUS GmbH, on the success of his company.

At DIECI, the machines equipped with an ICVD drive are also given their own quality label. The Italian manufacturer points to the advances of the new traction drive system with the addition "VS" for "Vario System". Ralf Schrempp is convinced that the success will continue for SAUER BIBUS. The ICVD concept stands out for its profitability, which is based on an improved level of efficiency in the traction drive and greater user friendliness of the machine as a whole.

We are pleased that in DIECI we have now also found a large manufacturer in Italy as a partner for our drive technology, says Ralf Schrempp, underlining the success of SAUER BIBUS.DIECI has developed into a leading supplier of telescopic ladders on the international market over the last few years.
