Wheel-side drive technology is revolutionizing agricultural machinery powertrains by integrating motors directly near the wheels or hubs. It enhances transmission efficiency up to 95%, enables independent torque control for each wheel to improve escape capability, and reduces energy consumption through regenerative braking. Institutions like the National Agricultural Machinery Equipment Innovation Center are promoting its application in tractors, seeders, and other equipment. This technology simplifies traditional transmission structures, facilitating the transition towards electrification and intelligence in agricultural machinery.
