Welcome to the era of smarter, cleaner power
Last month, Cummins had a special opportunity to host a Chinese State Grid delegation at its generator set manufacturing plant in Fridley, Minnesota. The half-day program gave the Chinese delegates a first-hand look at Cummins' product capability and reliability in the microgrid and DECHP market and expertise in power generation technology. In recent years, China’s National Energy Administratio

The manufacturing plant in Kotri, Pakistan, required an upgrade to a 1 MW generator set for fulfill
The smiles are hard to miss as dozens of men, women and children pull a rope up a long and rocky road. What’s easier to miss is at the end of the rope. There, a large, green generator set slowly makes its way from the back of the video frame to the foreground, its handlers waving to the crowd while pushing the unit along. A new video published on the Cummins YouTube channel shows how hundr
CUMMINS NEW CRATE ENGINE PROGRAM, CUMMINS REPOWER™, WILL NOT ONLY GIVE TRUCK ENTHUSIASTS A POWERFUL ALTERNATIVE FOR THEIR OLDER ICONIC OR SENTIMENTAL PROJECTS, BUT A CLEANER, MORE FUEL EFFICIENT OPTION, TOO.

Getting off exit 173 from I-85 to GA-17 might seem like taking just another country road. Nothing of note here besides the usual gas stations, fast-food restaurants and a couple of one-traffic-light small towns as you make your way to Royston, Georgia, home of Earl’s Electric Services Inc. (EES). What’s easy to miss is that this is the epicenter of a transformation underway in poultry productio
AS TRANSACTIONS BETWEEN GLOBAL BUSINESSES AND GOVERNMENTS AROUND THE WORLD BECOME INCREASINGLY COMPLEX, CUMMINS DIRECTOR FOR INTERNATIONAL ETHICS AND COMPLIANCE FERNANDA BERALDI SAYS TRANSPARENCY IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN EVER. “Transparency in government bids and industrial compensation is critical to improving international anti-corruption regulations,” said Fernanda Beraldi, whose paper on the
First, it is important to know that Cummins and other reputable companies will not ask for confidential information or money during the application, recruitment or onboarding process.

A real Cummins recruiter (or any other company) would ask you to respond
Engineers Mahesh Yanamandram and Tom McKinley work with heavy-duty truck engines at Cummins. So designing engines made of cardboard, bottle caps, rubber bands and straws was a little different for them. But talking trucks are cool whether it’s an 18-wheeler heading down the highway or a kid’s STEM challenge built around the kitchen table. It didn’t take long for the two men to agree it wa
It’s almost that time of the year again. Hurricane season begins on June 1st and lasts until November 30th. Colorado State scientists recently issued their initial hurricane season prediction for the Atlantic Basin, forecasting 11 named storms, including four hurricanes and two major hurricanes. While the prediction for the 2017 hurricane season is slightly below average due to El Niño, remembe
The new Guidanz mobile app is making long processes faster by quickly assessing engine status.

Here’s how the new app is getting customers back to work faster: Cummins service providers are tapping into technology to quickly find answers. At one time, when a check engine light f
First quarter revenues of $4.6 billion increased 7 percent from the same quarter in 2016. Stronger demand from construction and mining customers and higher sales from a distributor acquisition in the fourth quarter of last year, more than offset the impact of weaker truck production in North America. Currency negatively impacted revenues by approximately 1 percent compared to last year, primarily
In some ways, the cave at the Cummins Technical Center (CTC) in Columbus, Indiana (USA) is aptly named. Tucked away in the basement and dark much of the time, its inhabitants seem to prefer large, dark glasses, even when the lights are dim. But some pretty high tech stuff is happening in the CAVE and at similar locations across Cummins where engineers are using virtual reality to get a on
Thankfully, Spring is finally here! Our landscape will gradually change from brown to green and will fill with pops of color from various flowers blooming once again. We’ll open our windows to let in fresh air and go out on walks to overload our senses with all that comes with Spring. However, as the snow melts and temperatures climb, we have to remember that Spring also brings severe
The event featured a group of ambitious entrepreneurs, each ready to make their pitch to a panel of business leaders with a lot on the line. But this wasn’t a television show. It was the Cummins Environmental Gateway project. Cummins leaders in the U.K. invited suppliers in to pitch new ideas that could help the company reach its goals for reducing water and energy use and producing less waste.
So what do Americans like you do with $3,000 or so burning a hole in their pocket? You might think they go on a shopping spree or book a vacation, but Americans are actually quite practical with that extra money.
