What are hybrid equipment?

The most precise definition we encountered is that from Caterpillar: A hybrid is “a machine equipped with a device to collect, store and release energy during operation.” By that definition, a number of machines and trucks with innovative energy-use technology would qualify as hybrids.

What is a hybrid excavator?

Hybrid technology captures and reuses energy that is normally wasted. February 28, 2013. The 336E H captures the swing brake energy with a hydraulic accumulator. That energy is then used to accelerate the excavator upper structure back in the opposite direction.

What is Komatsu hybrid?

In Komatsu’s unique hybrid system, the electric swing motor-generator captures and regenerates energy as the upper structure slows down and converts it into electric energy. The regenerated energy is stored in the capacitor and can be used to swing, or by the generator-motor to help the engine accelerate.

What is hybrid Komatsu excavator?
