Bosch Rexroth and Kawasaki Heavy Industries Sign Framework Agreement on Cooperation in Off-Highway Machinery and Hydrogen Applications

Bosch Rexroth and Kawasaki Heavy Industries signed a framework agreement in Stuttgart, Germany, on September 22 to deepen technical cooperation in off-highway machinery and hydrogen applications, building on the memorandum of understanding the two companies signed in Las Vegas on March 2. The cooperation is intended to combine Bosch Rexroth's electronics, software, and electrical product capabilities with Kawasaki's precision hydraulic hardware and excavator system experience, in areas including construction site safety, autonomous operation, data interoperability, and hydrogen refueling infrastructure. The plans remain subject to ongoing antitrust review.
