Commercial vehicles must deliver rock-solid performance, minimize maintenance, and keep operating costs down. One way Cummins is helping customers meet that goal is with lashless valvetrain technology, a system designed to enhance reliability, durability and cut down on service needs.

As mining companies worldwide formulate strategies to transition to more sustainable operations without impacting cost of production, a key place to start is with their existing asset base. Upgrading mining engines to the latest technology leads to operational, environmental and even financial improvements. Cummins has developed upgrade kits for QSK60 and QSK78 engines with HPI fuel systems. These kits convert the engines to Cummins’ newer Modular Common Rail Fuel System (MCRS). 

Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI), a global leader in power technology, has announced the successful commissioning of advanced low carbon fuel test cells, marking a significant milestone in its joint project with Vale and Komatsu to develop an ethanol/diesel-powered surface mining haul truck aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions. This achievement underscores the companies’ shared commitment to decarbonizing the mining sector and advancing sustainable energy solutions.

Cummins achieved its water and energy goals in 2015, but still has a considerable way to go to meet its 2020 recycling goals. “The environmental teams around the globe truly had an outstanding year,” said Mark Dhennin, Director of Energy Efficiency and Environment at Cummins.  “There was a lot of effort that went into delivering on our commitments, which our environmental professionals met with great skill and enthusiasm.”
