GenSteer™ – Husco’s Breakthrough Steer-by-Wire Solution
Husco’s award-winning GenSteer™ system represents a breakthrough in fail-functional Steer-by-Wire (SbW), delivering redundancy without replication through simple, elegant architecture.
GenSteer uses smart system integration rather than duplicating hardware and software, setting a new benchmark for safety, cost, reliability, performance, and control in next era wheeled Off-Highway equipment. It’s the world’s 1st SbW system with safety that you can generate yourself.
MX Sectional Valve Platform
Husco’s MX valve platform brings integrated electro‑hydraulic control to a modular sectional design — enabling scalable PCLS/LUDV performance, flexible circuit options, and OEM‑tunable machine feel. The newest variant, MX07, expands the family into the super‑compact class, with a single platform scalable across compact to high‑flow, high‑pressure applications.
Cartridge Solutions for Compact, Scalable Control
Husco’s direct‑acting and proportional cartridges deliver reliable digital‑to‑hydraulic control across a wide range of mobile applications, built with global manufacturing scale and consistent quality.
- Precise digital‑to‑hydraulic performance
- Cost‑effective, dual‑sourced global supply chain
- Broad low‑pressure and high‑pressure solutions for diverse functions
New: M‑Series Cartridges
Husco’s latest cartridge platform, optimized for compact electro‑hydraulic applications.
- Sub‑25 mm width
- Compact, cost‑efficient design
- Sized for 10–25 mm spool control
Controllers and HusLink Toolbox
Designed to enable easy precise control while providing a unique, futureproof safety and security strategy. These embedded control units meet the rigorous performance and safety demands of mobile machines, offering you a gateway to innovative automation solutions.
Exacto
This digital machine control system makes it easy to turn any pilot-operated hydraulic machine into a high-performance, digitally-controlled system. Exacto combines Husco’s market-leading electrohydraulic hardware know-how into a complete system, enabling any machine to be precisely controlled.
EHPV
The high-performance Electro-Hydraulic Proportional Valves (EHPV) exhibit rapid response, high flow rates, and minimal leakage. These valves are suitable for various applications, including large excavator main circuits, gravity lowering systems, energy recovery systems and front axle semi-active damping circuits.
- 380+ bar pressure rating
- Patented consistent start of metering
- Opening characteristics can be mapped to spool performance – fewer part numbers, quicker tuning
- Pressure protection options available (external tank connection not required)
Driveline technologies
Husco’s driveline solutions improve control flexibility and increase energy efficiency.
Brakes: Compact, integrated brake solutions — covering service, trailer, and brake assist — combine cost‑effective cartridges with advanced features in a single, efficient system.
Priority: Integrated and stand‑alone priority solutions deliver predictable performance across single and multi‑level load‑sense circuits, tuned to each OEM’s needs.
Drive Disconnect: A compact, bi‑stable drive disconnect eliminates driveline drag with fast response, integrated sensing, and zero power draw in steady states.
Transmission: Custom transmission control systems integrate hydraulic control and embedded sensing to deliver efficient, responsive control across a wide range of machine architectures.
