The group is known for the production of generators, engines, stators, outboard engine parts and other parts for all kinds of motorcycles, parking machines, and automatic toll collection machines. In its own production facilities, Ducati Komponenti produces rotors, stators, alternators, generators, wind generators, regulators, transducers and inverters. The production itself is divided into three parts: rotor, stator and electronics. In terms of the green economy, our production is divided into four basic groups: a small FreeDuck electric moped, electric vehicle batteries, small wind turbines and e-wheel called Copenhagen Wheel. FreeDuck4 is an electric quadricycle for two people, which is produced in two versions: standard, with a 180 litre-trunk, and caravan with a 300-litre trunk. The maximum speed of FreeDuck4 is 45 km / h, and its travelling range, with only one battery charge, is approximately 60 km. It is ideal for city driving and is a great solution for delivery services, utility services, police, and airports, but also can be used for tourist purposes.

BICYCLE
FREEDUCK4 IS AN ELECTRIC BICYCLE AND A GREAT SOLUTION FOR DELIVERY SERVICES, UTILITY SERVICES, POLICE, AND AIRPORTS, BUT ALSO CAN BE USED FOR TOURIST PURPOSES mounted on the steering wheel, but also via the Bluetooth-enabled smartphone application. The bicycle travel range, on one charge of the battery, is about 60 km, and the maximum speed, achieved with auxiliary electric engine, is 25 km / h. Except for private purposes, FreeDuck2 is also suitable for use in bike sharing systems. Bike sharing system is available
mainly in larger cities where modern lifestyle presents a lot of challenges like traffic jams, due to whcih you cannot move quickly through the city, and the need to become more physically active to counteract the sedentary lifestyle and work. The logic of using this system is very simple: the user simply chooses a station with available bicycles. You can log into the system in several ways – with the RFID card, entering a user password on the terminal, or using a special key. The system unlocks the desired bike and the user is ready to ride. The bike has to be returned any station within the system before the predefined use period expires. Towns like Čakovec, Koprivnica and Pula all use our bike sharing system. Electric vehicle charging stations can be both for private and public use. Those for private use have smaller dimensions and are suitable for wall mounting, while those for public use can be installed at any location because they have IP44 electrical protection and can charge multiple vehicles simultaneously. They are equipped with an RFID identification reader, liquid crystal display, GPRS connectivity device and local area network connection and are customized for charging all types of electric vehicles. With regard to power, there are 3.7 and 22 kW versions available, but also combinations of different connectors and power.
