To produce ultimate high-brightness hadron beams, synchrotrons need to overcome a most prominent intensity limitation, i.e., space charge. This Letter characterizes the potential of pulsed electron lenses in detailed 3D tracking simulations, key to which is a realistic machine and space charge model. The space charge limit, imparted by betatron resonances, is shown to be increased by up to 50% using a low symmetric number of electron lenses in application to the Facility for Antiproton and Ion Research SIS100 synchrotron. Conceptually, a 100% increase is demonstrated with a larger number of electron lenses, which is found to rapidly saturate near the theoretical 2D limit.
