The FCT45 transforms hydraulic power

Built on the proven floating cup technology, the FCT45 delivers efficient conversion of hydraulic power in the toughest conditions. This is the foundation that makes next-generation off-highway systems possible.

  • Converting and controlling hydraulic power

  • Continuously variable

  • Based on the proven Floating Cup Technology

  • Extremely efficient

  • No problems with close to zero speed operation

  • Exceptional dynamic performance

  • Robust and reliable

Systems

CPR-systems redefine hydraulic performance

The FCT45 unlocks a new class of hydraulic architecture. CPR-systems represent the platform where efficiency meets productivity and reliability in the harshest environments. CPR systems work with every power source.

  • CPR-systems are based on a simple Common Pressure Rail

  • The hydraulic accumulators of the CPR are the super-caps of the system

  • The CPR is similar to the electric grid: a simple, well defined power supply

  • CPR-systems provide flexibility in power sourcing, allowing you to choose batteries if desired without requiring them.

  • CPR-systems strongly reduce the fuel consumption, or the amount of batteries you need to install

  • The strong loss reduction makes it possible to use much smaller coolers.

Patents Floating Cup Bucher

The transaction is mentioned in Bucher Industries’ Annual Report 2025: "Innovative piston pumps for lowest speedsThe “AX pump” from Bucher Hydraulics operates with low levels of noise, pulsation and vibration. In addition, it is extremely resilient, with a maximum pressure of 500 bar, and very efficient. The “AX pump” can be used for mobile electric machinery, such as earth-moving equipment, excavators and construction cranes. It is also an essential component of “Helax”, a hydraulic-electric drive that can even recover energy and reuse it immediately. In the reporting period, Bucher Hydraulics acquired the patent rights for the “Floating Cups” that are central components of both “AX pumps” and “Helax”.”Innas maintained all rights on the Hydraulic Transformer including the rights to use and exploit Floating Cup technology in hydraulic transformers.
