Eddicy to showcase innovative and comprehensive material handling portfolio at ProMat 2025

Schaltbau, a global leader in advanced electromechanical components, is proud to announce its participation at ProMat 2025, where it will showcase their comprehensive material handling portfolio with its Eddicy brand, designed to enhance electrification, efficiency and connectivity in operations.

“Electric forklifts produce zero emissions contributing to the goal of ‘net zero emissions of greenhouse gases’ and creating a cleaner and safer work environment. This trend towards electrification in material handling is logical and anticipated to grow," said Jim Tullo, Managing Director at Schaltbau North America. "We look forward to showcasing how our Eddicy products, such as LV connectors, AFS contactors, and the new C303 bidirectional contactors, can enable and accelerate this shift."

Eddicy’s LV connectors ensure reliable power and signal transmission in demanding industrial environments. The AFS contactors are designed for low-voltage applications such as forklifts or AGVs, providing efficient and safe switching capabilities. Meanwhile, the C303 contactors set new industry standards with their bi-directional DC capability, enhancing energy efficiency and performance. By allowing up to 25% energy cost savings, they lower the overall total cost of ownership (TCO), enabling less frequent charging and longer operational hours. Additionally, the C303's compact size makes it an ideal fit for small material handling vehicles.

The global electric forklift market is expected to grow from $53 billion to $137 billion by 2031, driven by the need for operational efficiency and environmental sustainability. The long-term savings and improved employee safety make electrical equipment and infrastructure a strategic investment. The Eddicy product portfolio enhances efficiency and ensure smooth and uninterrupted operations of electric forklifts, high-rack stackers, AGVs, lifting platforms, and charging devices.

ProMat 2025 attendees will have the opportunity to:

• Learn about the technical advantages, including compact design, robust performance, and long operational life.
• Meet Schaltbau’s technical experts and explore custom Eddicy solutions tailored to specific industrial needs.
• Experience the highly anticipated C303 bidirectional contactors firsthand.
