In today's market, remanufacturing of engine parts is gaining traction as an eco-friendly and economically viable option. Remanufacturing extends the lifecycle of an engine, ensuring both environmental sustainability and cost-effectiveness. This article looks at how Cummins Inc. uses remanufacturing for its ReCon® remanufactured parts and engines. 

Cummins Group in India (“Cummins”), one of the leading power solutions technology providers in the country, is participating in the Symposium on International Automotive Technology (SIAT) 2024 in Pune.

Due to the lack of ventilation, however, the stoves have a significant impact on the air quality both inside and outside of the kitchen walls. As a result, approximately 500,000 people die every year in rural China due to indoor air pollution.

In the push towards lowering emissions, the role of remanufacturing has become more important than ever. As industries strive to reduce their carbon footprint, Cummins Inc. is focused on remanufacturing for its environmental benefits and operational efficiency. This article outlines the process followed by Cummins ReCon® in the remanufacturing of parts along with the sustainability and financial benefits offered. 

When Cummins Inc. talent scouts attend college job fairs, they usually visit the engineering schools. Luckily for Dave W., when Cummins visited Southern Illinois University in 2010, they also decided to interview students from the automotive school.   “I got a call from my college advisor about 20 hours before Cummins showed up,” Dave says. “He knew I’d been interviewing with Honda, Ford and Toyota. But he also knew Cummins needed wrench-turners like me who knew how engines worked.”  

As the transportation industry experiences the energy transition, customers require multiple power solutions and fuel types to customize their journey toward decarbonization in a way that meets their needs today and in the future. Biodiesel is one alternative fuel customers can integrate into their fleets for immediate impact on their carbon emissions. As of 2007, all Cummins Inc. diesel engines have been approved to use biodiesel blends up to B20.
