Jennifer Rumsey became Chair and CEO of Cummins Inc., a global power leader that uniquely offers its customers a broad portfolio of power solutions that best meet their needs and powers their businesses, including diesel, natural gas, battery, fuel cells, electrolyzers, and related components, on August 1, 2023.

For the first time in the North American agriculture market, Cummins debuts the next generation of ultra-clean engines, which will be available beginning in 2019. Designed to meet European Union (EU) Stage V emissions regulations, they offer distinct advantages to North American manufacturers.

The results were proven through extensive collaborative development efforts, covering millions of miles of real-world truck testing. In an analysis of cost savings potential, comparing the use of conventional oil and synthetic blend CK-4 oils in the Cummins X15 engine, Valvoline Premium Blue 15W-40 was proven to save upwards of $20,000 in annual oil maintenance cost and productivity savings for a 100-truck fleet*.

The L9 builds on the ISL9’s legacy of providing a robust, durable solution for motorcoach customers. Compared with the ISL9 from a decade ago, customers can expect to see as much as a 15 percent fuel economy improvement using the 2017 L9-powered motorcoaches. Contributing to the fuel-economy improvement is the use of the new Single Module™ aftertreatment, which is displayed in the Cummins booth. The Single-Module aftertreatment reduces the space claim by up to 70 percent and weight by up to 30 percent, allowing for better heat management by moving the module closer to the engine.

The X12 utilizes the new Single Module™ aftertreatment system, which takes up to 60 percent less space and weighs up to 40 percent less than prior aftertreatment configurations. Combined engine and aftertreatment weight for the X12 is around 2,340 lb – significantly lower than that of any other heavy-duty engine.

The new mobile app reduces the need to drive to a certified service location or wait for a technician to arrive on site. Customers can view prioritized engine faults using the Guidanz mobile app paired with an INLINE™ mini Bluetooth® adapter, which provides critical information they can quickly share with their operations manager or service provider. By either emailing the operations manager directly from the app or calling Cummins Care, initiating the service process is faster and easier than ever with data available at the fingertips of our customers.

Isolating and interpreting key engine and aftertreatment data every day, Connected Advisor provides customers with prioritized, time-based recommendations to distinguish between immediate repair needs and those that can be scheduled a few days out. Fault reports, including probable causes and recommended actions, are sent to fleet managers daily to help initiate the repair process. For faults requiring prompt attention, immediate notification reports are provided to alert a fleet manager.

For years, recommended oil drain intervals have been based on a set distance and/or time period. Vehicles carrying heavy loads, running across rugged terrain or having a high percentage of idle time were treated the same as those with less strenuous duty cycles. The Cummins OilGuard program allows participating fleets and owner-operators to safely extend oil change intervals while keeping full warranty coverage for their Cummins engine.

“Cummins 100-year history is defined by our diesel technology leadership. As we have seen with the latest Stage V engines, these products will continue to develop and be lighter, more powerful and more efficient. Approaching our second century, we see alternative power as a complement to diesel. We call it energy diversity, providing a range of powertrain solutions for customers: clean diesel, renewables, natural gas, gasoline, hybrids and electric power.
