ZQuip, part of Moog Construction, has launched its ZQuip to convert diesel-powered construction fleets into zero-emissions machines that create all-electric job sites. The ZQuip energy kit includes 70- and 140-kWh Energy Modules, which are interchangeable across all machines, a battery harness, electric motor, and AI thermal management, as well as the software to to monitor a fleet’s activities and battery-life, ensuring the highest level of uptime.

“The 700V ZQuip Energy Modules are at the core of this innovation. ZQuip modules are interchangeable across any machine we convert regardless of size, type, or manufacturer, and will enable a level of serviceability, run-time, and value that is far greater than current battery solutions,” said Chris LaFleur, managing director for ZQuip.

ZQuip first demonstrated this concept with a CAT 308, creating a ZQuip battery-electric version of the classic diesel-powered 8-t excavator, making it one of the most powerful, energy-efficient and zero-emissions 8-ton excavators available today.

According to Mr. LaFleur, creating a zero-emissions construction site requires developing a fleet of zero-emissions machines that can work cohesively to create value. That means going beyond the electrification of one machine at a time and, instead, using ZQuip to convert huge swaths of machines simultaneously so that energy and performance are optimized across a fleet, not just machine by machine.
With ZQuip, project managers can match the fleet’s energy needs with battery capacity. Energy Modules can even be swapped across any machine on the job site.

Moog Construction is a business venture of Moog Inc, a worldwide designer, manufacturer, and integrator of precision control components and systems, that is leveraging Moog’s leadership in protecting and advancing humankind to build a new future for construction machines and sites. While Moog has worked with the construction industry for over 30 years, Moog Construction is accelerating the electrification of construction machines and autonomous robots on construction sites.
