Electric motorization for road maintenance and urban cleanliness vehicles
Rage Mechanics provides electric powertrains for small municipal technical services vehicles: street vacuum cleaners, compact sweepers, container movers and bin pushers, park, cemetery and campsite utility vehicles, patrol vehicles.
We work for the manufacturers of these vehicles and for local authorities electrifying their existing fleets.
Why electrify cleaning vehicles
Cleaning vehicles operate early in the morning in inhabited areas, and an electric vehicle won't wake up the neighborhood.
It emits no exhaust fumes in pedestrian streets, covered markets, or multi-storey parking lots.
Its short, regular routes are well suited to a battery sized precisely for its needs.
It requires less maintenance than a small internal combustion engine.
What Rage brings to local authorities
Traction, accessories, and the battery for a cleaning vehicle, along with fleet monitoring.
| Element | What we offer |
|---|---|
| Traction motor and controller | Sized for the vehicle's load, gradient, and speed |
| Accessory motorization | Brushes, suction, lifting, via dedicated motors |
| Lithium battery and BMS | Full shift autonomy |
| Fleet software | Hours, batteries, location, maintenance |
| Retrofit | Conversion of existing thermal vehicles |
When a cleaning vehicle combines traction and accessories, we design a dedicated controller that manages the whole system and integrates with existing controls.
For an internal combustion vehicle already in service, we first analyze a machine to verify if the conversion is cost-effective, then convert the rest of the fleet.
With a cleaning vehicle manufacturer, we supply the powertrain and battery, while the manufacturer keeps their vehicle and brand.
Our motorizations are already at work in cities and in the field
We haven't published a case study on a road maintenance vehicle yet.
Our motorizations already provide daily service among the public and withstand demanding professional off-road use.
