The commercial transportation industry is undergoing a significant transformation, driven by the global push to reduce emissions. In parallel, our customers and fleet operators are trying to achieve more sustainable operations through improved fuel economy and efficient performance. As fuel technologies evolve, it is crucial to understand how Electronic Control Units (ECUs) will evolve to support

The fuel system is a critical part of any engine, playing a pivotal role in powering vehicles efficiently and effectively. As fuel technologies evolve, a better understanding of the fuel system enables Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEMs) to meet their emission goals, optimize vehicle performance, ensure safety and comply with regulations.  The fuel system is part of the powertrain and

Battery Electric Vehicles (BEVs) and Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles (FCVs) are vital to the transportation industry's move toward more sustainable operations. Both are low emission vehicles that run on electric power. Battery Electric Vehicles operate using energy stored in batteries, while Fuel Cell Electric Vehicles are powered by a fuel cell that creates electricity using hydrogen as a fuel, with

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, l

Digital technologies are transforming the world. In our personal lives we are growing used to interacting with connected devices every day in our homes, cars, and at work. Today, many new cars come with digital features that improve safety, increase efficiency, and bring new levels of convenience to our everyday lives.  Commercial vehicles are no different, with digital fleet management t

The mining industry is at a pivotal moment, with leading companies across the globe committing to ambitious goals to drastically cut greenhouse gas emissions by 2030. At the heart of this transformative era is Cummins Inc., which is a trusted partner of miners to help reduce carbon and greenhouse gas emissions and move towards greener operations. With Cummins, miners can make significant strides t

The transportation industry is at a pivotal stage in the energy transition. While some early adopters are eager to integrate new, emerging technologies, others are curious about low-carbon alternative fuels that are readily available to integrate into existing infrastructure.  One of the simplest ways fleets can lower their carbon dioxide (CO2) and greenhouse gas emissions is by integratin

What are virtual sensors and how are they different from traditional sensors?  Virtual sensors are an emerging software-based technology that can make a big difference in how we monitor and manage engines and vehicle performance. Unlike traditional sensors, which are physical pieces of hardware that need to be installed in specific places within the engine to work, virtual sensors work by

Roughly three years ago there was not much talk about hydrogen engines according to Jim Nebergall, Executive Director - Market Strategy, Cummins Inc.  "When I started, nobody knew what this was," said Nebergall who also serves as Cummins' general manager of hydrogen engines. "We decided this is important enough for Cummins to focus on." The Biden administration, the European Union and t

Circular life cycle planning is gaining traction as an alternative to traditional manufacturing practices. By comparing the principles of circular and linear life cycles, we can understand their implications for businesses and the environment. This article discusses the importance of circular life cycle planning, its advantages and its adoption by Cummins Inc. Let's explore the benefits and practi
