Dana Motion Systems is the hydraulic division of Dana Off-Highway Motion and Drive Technologies and is the result of the acquisition by Dana of the Brevini Fluid Power business. Brevini Fluid Power was established in 2003 through the merger of several companies active in the hydraulic sector for over forty years.

The challenge began in 1973 with the birth of SamHydraulik in 1973, followed by Hydr-APP in 1974. The company grew over the following decades with the addition of Aron and Brevini Hydraulics. The product range was expanded through the acquisition of VPS in Bologna and OT OilTechnology in Parma. In 2009, the important acquisition of BPE allowed Brevini Fluid Power to start supplying clients with electronic controls.

The Dana Motion Systems- Hydraulics division has headquarters in Reggio Emilia, with production units in Europe and China, and a wide direct presence all over the world with its service and assembly centers, ensuring the highest closeness to the customer.
