With RT-Labs EtherCAT software, SPEAR transitioned from CAN to a distributed EtherCAT architecture, allowing motor controllers to be placed close to the actuators while simplifying system integration.
To modernize connectivity for legacy tools, a global leader in the industrial tools segment turned to proven components from Kvaser and RT-Labs. The result: a reliable CAN-to-Ethernet bridge delivered in a fraction of the time and cost of traditional development.
Volvo Construction Equipment partnered with RT-Labs to replace their Powertronic Transmission Electronic Control Unit (TECU), the core system managing transmission operations. RT-Labs delivered a reliable, high-performance platform ready for production in 2025.
RT-Labs collaborated with Volvo to develop the Autonomous Vehicle Control Module (AVCM), a safety-compliant ECU designed to power autonomous TARA trucks in demanding heavy industries like mining.
Volvo’s ambitious VERA project combined cutting-edge innovation with a practical vision for the future of logistics. Starting as a cab-less, self-driving truck showcased at a Berlin trade show, VERA evolved into a groundbreaking solution for autonomous goods transport between Gothenburg’s port and Volvo’s Torslanda factory.
