Arken Generator, in collaboration with STAMFORD | AvK, powers critical operations at Turkey’s Ermaden Coal Mine. Discover how customized power solutions ensure continuous operation and meet the rigorous demands of high-altitude industrial environments.

The ACE is engineered for operation in full desert conditions using all specified military fuels. At the US Army’s Yuma Proving Ground in Arizona, ACE recently passed a series of rigorous tests powering the Advanced Mobility Experimental Prototype (AMEP). The compact 14.3L ACE produces 1,000 hp, and a peak torque of 2424 lb-ft. This four-cylinder, two-stroke, opposed-piston diesel engine is equipped with eight pistons, as well as supercharging and turbocharging capabilities that eliminate the necessity for a valve train.

Project background The upgrade was necessary as the legacy DMC300 reached end-of-life due to obsolete hardware components and software. Additionally, the customer aimed to add more generators and required changes in the control sequence to enable integration with a PV renewable system. Challenges The legacy DMC300 was equipped with outdated PLCs, having obsolete software and hardware modules, leading to several challenges:
