As the push for cleaner, more efficient engines, Cylinder Deactivation (CDA) is helping internal combustion technology move forward. By intelligently shutting down select cylinders when full power isn’t needed, CDA reduces fuel consumption, carbon dioxide (CO₂) emissions, and better manages nitrogen oxides (NOₓ). It’s a powerful tool for manufacturers preparing to meet upcoming emissions standards in North America and Europe.

Axle performance plays a vital role in improving fuel economy, enhancing durability, and lowering emissions on any commercial vehicle. At Cummins, we strive to develop reliable and efficient technologies that reduce complexity while improving these outcomes. The Meritor Lube Management System (MLMSTM) embodies this philosophy. Designed to enhance axle efficiency, prolong component life, and reduce emissions, MLMS delivers measurable benefits for fleets without the need for pumps, electronics, or added complexity.
