ENERVA™
eAgitator Kit
A bolt-on electric bowl drive that cuts fuel use by up to 30%, eliminates on-site emissions and noise, and removes hydraulic risk from your concrete fleet.
The Product
Electric bowl drive for readymix trucks
The ENERVA™ eAgitator is a self-contained, bolt-on electric PTO unit featuring a high-torque electric motor, gearbox, and battery system. It replaces the hydraulic bowl drive on concrete mixer trucks, powering the agitator bowl entirely from electricity.
By eliminating the need to run the truck's diesel engine to turn the bowl, the eAgitator delivers immediate reductions in fuel consumption, emissions, and on-site noise. It also eliminates idle time and engine wear, freeing up more power for driving and lowering overall maintenance costs.
Drawing on 15+ years of experience in rugged industrial environments, the eAgitator has been production-optimised for the unique challenges of the readymix industry. It is a robust, fit-for-purpose system designed for reliability and ease of adoption.
Key Benefits
Why operators are switching to electric
Up to 30% fuel savings
The diesel engine no longer needs to idle to turn the bowl. Fuel savings are immediate, measurable, and significant across an entire fleet.
Zero on-site emissions
The bowl runs on battery power with zero exhaust emissions or fumes. Ideal for sensitive urban environments, indoor pours, and sites with strict environmental requirements.
Silent operation
No engine idling means dramatically reduced noise on site. A step change for early morning residential pours, hospital builds, and noise-sensitive environments.
No hydraulic risk
Eliminates the potential for costly and environmentally damaging hydraulic fluid spills. One less system to maintain, one less risk to manage.
Eliminate parasitic load
With the hydraulic PTO removed, the diesel engine has more power available for driving. Less load means reduced engine wear and lower maintenance costs.
Advanced wireless control
Robust wireless controls with safety interlocks, timers, and pause functionality. Simplified wiring and intuitive operation for drivers.
How It Works
Simple bolt-on installation
The eAgitator is a self-contained unit that bolts onto the truck subframe beneath the mixer bowl. It replaces the traditional hydraulic PTO with an electric motor and gearbox that drives the bowl directly.
The integrated battery system powers the bowl independently of the truck's diesel engine. The unit charges overnight at the depot via a standard plug, ready for the next day's work.
Installation is designed to be straightforward, with simplified wiring and minimal modification to the existing truck. The system is designed for easy adoption by fleet workshops already familiar with heavy vehicle maintenance.
Operator Experience
Built for the real world
The in-cab display gives the driver clear visibility of bowl speed, battery state of charge, and system status. The wireless remote control allows the operator to manage the bowl from outside the cab during pours.
Safety interlocks prevent unintended operation, and built-in timer functionality allows the bowl to agitate automatically during transit without driver intervention. Pause functionality means the bowl can be stopped and restarted instantly.
Drivers consistently report that the eAgitator is quieter, simpler, and more pleasant to operate than hydraulic systems. No engine vibration, no hydraulic whine, and no fumes on site.
The Business Case
A low-risk path to electrification
Retrofit, don't replace
The eAgitator fits your existing fleet. No need to buy new trucks. Electrify the bowl drive on the trucks you already own and start saving immediately.
Measurable returns
Up to 30% fuel savings, reduced engine maintenance, eliminated hydraulic servicing, and fewer environmental compliance costs. The savings are real and trackable.
Familiarise your operations
The eAgitator introduces electric vehicle technology to your fleet and your people in a low-risk, high-reward way. Build confidence with electric before committing to full fleet electrification.
Competitive advantage
Win contracts that require low-emission or low-noise operations. Indoor pours, urban residential, hospitals, schools, and any site where diesel fumes and noise are unwelcome.
