MCNEILUS ePTO INNOVATION: A SMART ELECTRIC TRANSITION FOR REFUSE COLLECTION
Learning
TECH THAT CHANGES EVERYTHING
Traditionally, a truck’s hydraulics run off the diesel engine. While this setup is durable, it also means constant fuel use, more noise, and engine wear. The ePTO (Electric Power Take-Off) replaces this process by using electric energy to power the hydraulics during loading.
This shift brings tangible benefits: less fuel, lower emissions, and reduced mechanical stress on the vehicle.
LESS NOISE, FEWER EMISSIONS: A BETTER WORK ENVIRONMENT
One of the most noticeable benefits of ePTO is how quiet it is. For operators working early shifts or in residential zones, this means a much more comfortable and respectful workday. It also minimizes public disturbance.
Environmentally, the difference is also clear: ePTO cuts down on diesel use during loading, helping fleets reduce emissions and move toward greener operations.
SIMPLER MAINTENANCE, LOWER COSTS
Fewer moving parts mean fewer breakdowns. ePTO reduces engine wear and extends service intervals — a clear win for fleet managers looking to control maintenance costs and boost uptime.
OPERATOR-FRIENDLY FUNCTIONALITY
From an operator’s standpoint, ePTO is easy to use and keeps operations smooth. Less vibration, less noise, and consistent cycle performance all contribute to more productive shifts.
A REAL STEP TOWARD RESPONSIBLE FLEETS
Integrating ePTO-equipped trucks into your fleet is a smart move for both public and private organizations looking to act sustainably. It’s a real transition — with real benefits — that doesn’t compromise performance or reliability.
