We work with customers who build electric or hybrid vehicles (EV) or who want to convert hydraulic steering systems to electric steering systems. We can also offer electric/hydraulic steering systems to suit your needs. KPS works in collaboration with the Application Engineers at OEM steering factories to identify your needs and to offer an appropriate solution.

The OEM steering systems we offer include:

  • Electric Power Steering Racks (EPS)
  • Pinion Electric Power Steering (P-EPS)
  • Dual Pinion Electric Power Steering (DP-EPS)

 We are now able to offer an electric power steering pump for light and heavy commercial vehicles. Maximum flow rate of 18.5 Lpm and maximum pressure of 120Bar. The pump can be supplied with a mounting plate and a noise cover if required.

  • The pump is available in 12V and 24V versions and can operate in -40/80 degrees C.
  • Steering assistance is variable with vehicle speed and the steering wheel angle
  • Electrical interface via standard power and signal connections
  • Mounted on four rubber isolators to avoid noise resonance

Technical Support

One of the main issues with this type of project is that quite often customers need important technical assistance as they do not have the knowledge internally. To resolve this issue we work with the technical department at the OEM’s. Their electronics Engineers and Application Engineers are able to support the customer throughout the process and to deliver the best solution for the project – from initial Engineering discussions (including programming), to steering system specifications, on to the delivery of samples for testing and ultimately to volume deliveries of the agreed system to customers schedules.

Costs

There will be the cost of each steering system produced and possibly some additional costs associated with software and calibration.

Small to Medium Volume Vehicle Producers

Your business may be producing 50 – 25,000 vehicles per year, whether that is cars, vans, road sweepers, utility vehicles, commercial electric vehicles for the road or industry, etc.  If so, KPS can help by offering a steering solution that meets your needs.
