Here the portfolio of some great projects we have made.

Small Dimentions - Easy to Manage - Energy Efficient

In consideration of the environment in which our EBo 1450 units operate (Indonesia port area), it has been necessary to provide special treatments against sea salt for all unpainted components. On the other hand, for the paintable parts, a special C5M painting was carried out, which expressly protects against corrosion typical of marine environments.

When it comes machines for to heavy duty movement and storage of materials Borghi Assali is able to provide state of the art drive components. More Info

Whether it concerns the handling of aircraft, goods or passengers, Borghi Assali is able to provide solutions for the traction and steering of all types of airport vehicles. More Info

Borghi Assali is able to supply electrical and hydraulic devices for the movement of any vehicle operating in port areas, both on road and rail. The presence of Borghi Assali in this sector, already important, is constantly growing. This is a sign that our products are finding increasing appreciation among the manufacturers of port machines. Moreover, if the customer request is to use electric motors, Borghi Assali has the possibility to offer high voltage AC motors (380 V - 400 V), as needed in port machines. More Info

Borghi Assali is able to supply electrical and hydraulic devices to guarantee the movement of any vehicle operating on rails or that need to be able to move independently both on rail and road. More Info

faq

What load range can our axles and electric wheels reach?

Borghi Assali has produced steering axles up to 40 tons, and electro-wheels up to 54 tons (on the single unit) and 90tons in the bogie configuration. However Borghi Assali has also designed traction and steering electro-wheels for loads up to 120 tons on a single unit.

What minimum speed can the wheels manage? What are the speed limits at which our electric wheels can work?

The maximum speed depends on the application and business sector. For lifting machines the maximum speed is generally 12 to 15km/h. The AGVs usually require speeds around 5 to 6km/h. Large wheels (over 20 tons) usually have rather low maximum speeds, about 1 to 2km/h or even less. Low working speed bring sometimes a design problem, especially for electrical solutions. The minimum working speed of a group produced by Borghi Assali is nowadays 0.37km/h, but it is possible to reduce this value with a special design.
