Let’s get in touch and explore how we can collaborate!
Contact us in the early phase of your project realization, because we do not see ourselves as a supplier, but as a solution partner for your innovation.
OEM systems for electrification and automation
Design and integration of powertrains for machinery from 25 kWh to 450 kWh
- Off-highway machines
- Special vehicles
- Hydraulics
- Low carbon
Why Kinell
New integration challenges for OEMs
We help original equipment manufacturers develop more efficient, productive and safer machines. From the electrification of a single tool to the full integration of a 100% electric powertrain.
01
High-voltage electrical architectures
HV, BMS, PDU, functional safety:
Kinell masters the entire value chain and supports OEMs in the definition and integration of their electrical architectures, from design through validation.
02
CAN and ISOBUS
integration
Kinell designs embedded network architectures compliant with ISO 11783, ensuring consistency and reliability across all connected systems: powertrain, hydraulics, sensors, and telematics.
03
Embedded Telematics & Monitoring
Data collection, remote monitoring, diagnostics and operational tracking: Kinell integrates embedded telematics architectures to improve machine performance, availability and operational efficiency.
Our capabilities
Four areas of expertise, one team
Kinell draws on all its in-house expertise, rather than outsourcing. This enables us to integrate complete systems without any loss of information during the handover between disciplines.
Electrification of off-highway machinery
Machine electrification for Kinell is not limited to propulsion.
We support the electrification of all vehicle power requirements for traction, attachments, implements and auxiliary systems.
We provide Engineering services, pre-engineered system solutions and a range of dedicated products to accelerate OEM electrification projects.
Low-carbon energy sources
Supply and integration of a choice of batteries, hydrogen or hybrid power systems to support OEM goals for decarbonisation, noise and fumes, without compromising machine reliability or productivity.
Autonomy and automation
Advanced electronic controls and software capabilities to add new features to machines, improve productivity or even achieve autonomous. operation
Hydraulic systems
We design next-generation hydraulic systems that incorporate the latest electronic control technologies.
This approach improves energy efficiency, reduces losses, and increases machine productivity for smarter, more agile, and more economical operation.

Our offers
We design, integrate and deliver. No middlemen.
From design to delivery, including integration
Three ways we can support you, depending on where you are in your project.
Engineering
Kinell supports every stage of the development cycle: design, integration, and validation, with expertise spanning all technical disciplines.
System solutions
Kinell provides pre-validated, integration-ready subsystems to accelerate development and enable your teams to focus on high-value innovation.
Products
Kinell supports OEMs in the selection, integration, and sourcing of components through a network of international technology partners.
Our industries
Our approach
From design to production
Kinell steps in at every stage of the project lifecycle, with end-to-end support. You can bring us in for a single phase or hand over the entire project, with one dedicated technical lead accountable from start to finish.
Thanks to Kinell, we were able to get a battery-electric version of our SUPER 1000 sewer cleaner ready for series production in a very short time.

CEO & Lawyer Wiedemann enviro-tec
01
Feasibility & study
Machine requirements analysis, architecture benchmarking, identification of integration, safety and certification constraints.
02
System architecture
Definition of the electrical, electronic, hydraulic and software architecture. Component sizing and system interface management.
03
Prototyping & integration
First system build, subsystem integration, embedded software commissioning and validation of all functions.
04
Validation
Functional and robustness validation under real operating conditions, performance validation, safety compliance and system certification.
05
Industrialisation & production
Supplier qualification, documentation, small and mid-series manufacturing with full traceability and machine deployment readiness.
06
Support & evolution
Technical support, evolutionary maintenance, software updates and system lifecycle management throughout the machine’s service life.
Kinell doesn’t stop at the concept. We go all the way to a fully manufactured system bench-validated and ready to integrate into your machine. That’s what sets us apart from a pure engineering office and an industrial manufacturer.
