Cummins inaugurates new production line for electrified technologies in Marktheidenfeld

Employees at ribbon cutting

Cummins Inc. is excited to announce the expansion of its operations at the Marktheidenfeld plant in Germany with a new production line for electrified technologies. This represents a significant step forward in Cummins' dedication to advancing manufacturing capabilities for electrified mobility solutions.

The new line will support production of electrified solutions for mobility applications, like traction and braking products, for Accelera™ by Cummins. These components and related technology are crucial for electromobility and will further enhance Cummins Marktheidenfeld's reputation as an employer of choice in the region.

"We are excited to expand our operations to include production of components for electrified mobility applications in Marktheidenfeld," said Robert Cochanski Rodriguez, Executive Managing Director of Cummins Emission Solutions EMEA and Global Doser Technology Business. "Cummins is committed to leading through the energy transition, and we are proud to make Marktheidenfeld a part of the electromobility future. This expansion is a commitment to the Marktheidenfeld location and a testament to the outstanding skills of our team."

Cummins has made substantial investments in the facility since its acquisition in 2012. With over 350 employees, Cummins Marktheidenfeld is a leading production site within Cummins Emissions Solutions in Europe, manufacturing key components for advanced diesel engines.

This expansion follows the recent opening of the new Pilot Test Center for European type testing of engines and systems on November 16, 2023. The investment in the new production line underscores Cummins' recognition of the exceptional skills and expertise of its workforce in Marktheidenfeld, as well as the strategic advantage of the location's proximity to customers and suppliers in Europe.

The official opening of the production line included a ribbon-cutting ceremony held on February 28, 2024, and was attended by Mr. Hoffmann (Member of the German National Parliament), Mr. Stamm (Mayor of the City of Marktheidenfeld), Cummins and Accelera™ by Cummins employees and leadership.

Los Custompaks de Cummins se utilizan para la gestión del agua mientras Tailandia lucha con su crisis de agua

CustomPak in situ

Water crisis

Sixty Cummins Inc. CustomPaks are in service in Thailand as part of a critical water management plan aimed at easing the country’s water crisis – a crisis that has caused enormous economic and social damage and stirred conflict among communities.

En las últimas décadas, Tailandia ha enfrentado continuamente problemas de agua causados por una grave sequía. Water reserves in dams and reservoirs are insufficient while water resources are often contaminated with toxins caused by urban communities and the industrial and agricultural sectors.

Severe flooding is a threat, too, at a time when the realities of climate change are hanging over the country.

As a result, the allocation of precious water resources, which must be shared among various stakeholders including new and existing industry, large and small agriculture, and cities and villages has become a flashpoint.

Kittithanapat Engineering Co. (KTP), has been involved in the water management system since 1996, working closely with authorities such as the Royal Irrigation Department, Department of Water Resources, Bangkok Metropolitan Authority and others.

600 hp CustomPaks

To help KTP meet its often urgent requirements, Cummins DKSH (Thailand) has recently supplied 60 Australian-built CustomPaks - 45 powered by Cummins' X15 engine rated at 600 hp, and 15 powered by the QSL9 rated at 325 hp. These fully self-contained powerpacks are emissions certified to Tier 3.

The CustomPaks are coupled to hydraulically-driven, large-volume submersible water pumps sourced by KTP from US company Moving Water Industries (MWI); KTP is the exclusive distributor in Thailand for these MWI Hydroflo pumps.

Prior to Cummins’ involvement, KTP was using another diesel engine brand but service support wasn’t up to the standard required.

Long-serving KTP engineer Kittisak Thanasoot says Cummins DKSH’s reputation for technical and aftersales support along with the reliability of the Cummins product were a key reason behind KTP’s decision to specify the CustomPaks for the Royal Irrigation Department.

The ability of Cummins DKSH to respond to short delivery times was also important.

“Supplying large quantities of high horsepower diesel engines for emergency situations such as flash flooding can be a challenge for KTP,” says Kittisak Thanasoot.

“Responding to the needs of the government agencies to manage such problems in a timely manner and with least impact on communities, KTP has found the answer in our partnership with Cummins DKSH.”
