Descriptiontext

LHY Powertrain GmbH & Co. KG, formerly known as Linde Hydraulics, is a German manufacturer of hydraulic components and integrated drive systems headquartered in Aschaffenburg, Germany. Founded in 1904, the company designs and produces hydraulic pumps (including variable displacement units for closed-circuit operation), hydraulic motors, hydrostatic variators for continuously variable transmissions (CVT), hydraulic valves, and electronic control units. Its core technical proposition is the integration of hydraulics, electronics, and mechanics into unified drive solutions, with proprietary variable displacement pump technology and a claimed market-leading position in long-life hydraulic units capable of up to 100,000 hours of service life with regular maintenance.

The company's products serve heavy-machinery OEMs and end users across construction, agriculture, forestry, mining, material handling, marine, municipal, and stationary industrial applications, where high power density, multi-function simultaneous control, and operation in harsh environments are required. Revenue is generated primarily through direct B2B sales to machinery manufacturers (enterprise field sales), supplemented by an online spare-parts shop and a registered-customer extranet portal. The company maintains regional offices in Germany (headquarters), the United States, the United Kingdom, and China, and operates as a privately held subsidiary of Weichai Power, a Chinese automotive and machinery conglomerate, under the "Weichai Family" corporate structure.
