“It’s an Interesting Time to be in the Industry”

Jan. 13, 2022
Mike Terzo, founder and CEO of Terzo Power Systems, believes there's room at the table for both traditional fluid power and electromechanical systems.

Mike Terzo, founder and CEO of Terzo Power Systems, told Power & Motion that traditional fluid power and electromechanical systems all will find a place in the future. “The reality is that it's not going to be one or the other. I think fluid power will lose some ground in some applications,” he said, “but it's actually going to gain ground in others because we actually can now per a given cost point, we can actually now grab some hydraulic ground back from electromechanical. So, it’s interesting; that's why it's such an exciting time to be in this industry.”
