Core offering

Bosch Rexroth manufactures and supplies drive and control technologies for industrial and mobile applications, including hydraulic components and systems (industrial and mobile), electric drives and motion control, linear motion products, and factory automation hardware and software. Its flagship software platform, ctrlX AUTOMATION, uses an open app-based microservice architecture, while offerings like the eOC electronic hydraulic control, BODAS electronic controllers, AOP digitalized hydraulics platform, and CryoPump hydrogen refueling technology target industrial OEMs, machinery builders, and end users across factory automation, mobile machinery, and energy transition markets.

Product overview

Bosch Rexroth is a comprehensive drive and control technology company offering a broad portfolio organized around several core product lines and platforms. The flagship platform is ctrlX AUTOMATION, an open automation platform using microservice and app-based architectures that combines hardware, software, and a third-party ecosystem (ctrlX World). This platform is complemented by the eOC (electronic Open Circuit) electrohydraulic control architecture for mobile machinery, the BODAS electronic control system (controllers, software, and BODAS-Connect IoT platform), and the AOP (Asset Orchoration Platform) for digitalized hydraulics with real-time condition monitoring. Hydraulic solutions span compact hydraulics (now merged with HydraForce), industrial hydraulics (A3V pump platform, CytroBox/CytroPac power units, H4U software platform), and mobile hydraulics (LUDV/RS LARGE valves, RM Global valve platform, electronic load sensing). Linear motion products include guide rails, shafts, ball screws, and precision motion components. Electric drives and controls are anchored by Elmo Motion Control (acquired 2022). The portfolio is rounded out by electric powertrains for off-highway vehicles, hydrogen infrastructure solutions including CryoPump technology for liquid hydrogen handling, and warehouse automation tools (ROKIT, ACTIVE Fleet Manager). The company also acquired Kassow Robots (seven-axis cobots) and fully integrated HydraForce (compact hydraulics specialist). All offerings are supported by digital tools including online configurators, AI-based monitoring software, Asset Administration Shell digital twins, and IO-Link valve integration. Bosch Rexroth operates across factory automation, industrial hydraulics, mobile hydraulics, and electronics, serving industries including construction, agriculture, mining, automotive, marine, defense, and hydrogen infrastructure.
