Zeppelin Power Systems offers a global service network that ensures fast spare parts supply and maintenance – a key advantage for season-dependent industries like agriculture.
Zeppelin Power Systems Solutions for Industry
Efficient and tailored drive solutions for agriculture
Versatile applications
Our Caterpillar industrial engines are used in a variety of agricultural machines – from tractors and harvesters to feed mixers, fertilizer spreaders, and irrigation systems. They ensure consistent performance, even under extreme conditions, helping to optimize operational processes.
Maximum efficiency for harvesters
Especially in harvesting applications, such as with chippers, potato or beet harvesters, fuel efficiency plays a crucial role. Farmers optimize the operation of their machines by working with maximum torque at lower speeds rather than running at full power. This significantly reduces fuel consumption and requires a specially tailored engine configuration. Our drives are precisely designed to meet the specific requirements of agricultural machinery – from optimized engine maps to customized cooling systems for various operating conditions.
Customized solutions for different operating conditions
The size and characteristics of agricultural land vary greatly, which impacts machine operating times, cooling systems, and the engine's thermal management. We take all these factors into account and provide individually optimized engines for each application.
Reliable drives for irrigation systems
Another key application is irrigation. Our engines power irrigation pumps that reliably and efficiently supply large fields with water. Especially in dry regions, this is a crucial market where powerful and durable drives are in high demand.
Do you have questions? We are happy to advise you on our drive solutions for agriculture.
Reliable and powerful industrial engines for forestry
Applications in forestry
Our Caterpillar industrial engines power a wide range of forestry machines – including harvesters, skidders, forwarders, sawmills, mobile chippers, and wood splitters. They deliver high performance with maximum efficiency and are designed to handle demanding terrain conditions.
Efficient IOPU drives for agriculture and forestry
From harvesting to forestry work, agricultural machines require perfectly tailored drive systems. With our Industrial Open Power Units (IOPU), we offer pre-installed "plug & play" solutions, featuring integrated components such as cooling, air filters, and exhaust systems. Our experts optimize every detail – from oil management to power characteristics. The result is modular, highly efficient drive solutions that can be flexibly adapted to the demands of agriculture and forestry.
Maximum machine availability through expert service and digital solutions
Zeppelin Power Systems offers comprehensive services – from fast spare parts supply and maintenance concepts to digital monitoring solutions that optimize machine operation. This ensures maximum availability and efficiency of your agricultural and forestry machines – anytime and under all conditions.
Tailored industrial drives for field and forest
Zeppelin Power Systems offers customized drive solutions for agriculture and forestry and stands by you as a reliable partner. From personalized consultation and the development of suitable concepts to professional installation, we ensure the optimal integration of our engines and systems into your machines.
