The next phase of work is expected to focus on assessing commercial viability and defining the potential framework for a future partnership.<\/p>\n<p>Lenze is a privately held, family-owned company based in Aerzen, Germany, with more than 70 years of experience in industrial drive systems and automation. The company serves customers across sectors including conveyor and material handling, packaging machinery, robotics, automotive assembly, and industrial automation, providing drive controllers, servo drives, variable frequency drives, and related systems to OEMs and industrial integrators worldwide.<\/p>\n<p>Hillcrest\u2019s ZVS technology is being evaluated for use in Lenze\u2019s inverter platforms because of its potential to improve efficiency, electromagnetic compatibility, and overall power-conversion performance in demanding industrial applications. These characteristics are particularly important in the global industrial drive market, where customers prioritize reliability, energy efficiency, and cost-effective performance.<\/p>\n<p>The two companies have already been working together to assess whether Hillcrest\u2019s ZVS platform can meet Lenze\u2019s technical specifications, manufacturing requirements, and commercial objectives. Management believes Lenze\u2019s direct access to a broad industrial customer base makes the collaboration strategically important, as it could open the door to large-scale commercial opportunities in high-power inverter markets.<\/p>\n<p>#proactiveinvestors&#8230;<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/ca.proactiveinvestors.com\/companies\/news\/1094444\/hillcrest-advances-lenze-partnership-as-zvs-inverter-technology-moves-toward-commercial-evaluation.html\">Source<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Hillcrest advances Lenze partnership as ZVS Inverter technology moves toward commercial evaluation https:\/\/ca.proactiveinvestors.com\/companies\/news\/1094444\/hillcrest-advances-lenze-partnership-as-zvs-inverter-technology-moves-toward-commercial-evaluation.html Publish Date:&#8230;<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":280691,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"fifu_image_url":"https:\/\/cdn.proactiveinvestors.com\/eyJidWNrZXQiOiJwYS1jZG4iLCJrZXkiOiJ1cGxvYWRcL05ld3NcL0ltYWdlXC8yMDI2XzA2XC9qZ3U3YVFjOXk4QnBIaXBZNzNuYUxkTkI4dUFDdWZyVlJ6bUFqb3BBLmpwZyIsImVkaXRzIjp7InJlc2l6ZSI6eyJ3aWR0aCI6MTIwMCwiaGVpZ2h0Ijo2MzAsImZpdCI6ImNvdmVyIn19fQ==","fifu_image_alt":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[8],"tags":[87,64],"class_list":["post-280690","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-technology","tag-automotive","tag-energy"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280690"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=280690"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280690\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":280692,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/280690\/revisions\/280692"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/280691"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=280690"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=280690"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/news-you-need.com\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=280690"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
