The Marriage of Hydraulics and Electromechanical

Jan. 5, 2022

According to Mike Terzo, founder and CEO of Terzo Power Systems, it’s likely to be a relationship of parity.

Mike Terzo, founder and CEO of Terzo Power Systems, said the relationship between traditional hydraulics and electromechanical systems will be a marriage where each power system brings value to the relationship. “There are things that you can do with hydraulics that you will know maybe never be able to do with electromechanical,” Terzo told Power & Motion. “So, I think there's there are a lot of people that think like, ‘Oh, all the all the hydraulics are going to be replaced.’ There’s just realities again that aren't going to allow that to happen.”
