The government has also adjusted the incentive outlay table to include this clause, which guarantees fairness for all authorized businesses and protects those who opt to make large upfront expenditures.

Higher Force, Safety, and Mobility Fuels Hydraulic Segmental Growth

Based on actuation, the hydraulic segments are expected to hold a decent market share. Manufacturers of heavy-duty vehicles are focusing on hydraulic actuators to improve the vehicle's comfort and safety. The truck must lift a heavy object to transport tons of sand to building sites. Hence, a hydraulic actuator is required to smooth the procedure. When the wheels change direction, the steering wheel regulates the hydraulic motor's oil flow and helps guide the wheels. A hydraulic actuator motor's power-to-weight ratio is high. They generate a huge amount of power and are incredibly strong. Hydraulic power provides the best mobility solution and is simple to confine and manage.

For instance, in November 2023, ZF unveiled a new electro-mechanical 'Dry' brake system that reduces hydraulic-based braking systems with electric motors at each wheel to generate braking force. Despite the absence of a mechanical connection between the brake pedal and the brake actuators, the braking feel simulates that of a hydraulic brake.
