Introducing Cummins HELM platforms In 2024, Cummins Inc. made an exciting announcement that will reshape the commercial transportation landscape. Cummins HELM™ Platforms are designed to help our customers reach their sustainability goals while meeting diverse business needs. HELM —which stands for Higher Efficiency, Lower emissions and Multiple fuels—is a critical part of Cummins' broader
Rocky Lamattina & Sons is big business, and its headquarters in Wemen in northern Victoria, needs to be seen to be believed. It’s a world-class family-owned operation, processing around 1000 tonnes of carrots every week for delivery to supermarkets as well as wholesale and export markets. All the transport is carried out by the Lamattinas’ own fleet of 16 Cummins Inc. X15-powered Kenwort
Building on over a century of experience in engine development, Cummins Inc. is set to launch its 2027 X15 engine, representing a key milestone in its Destination Zero™ strategy. After more than 25 years of dedicated work by teams of engineers and specialists, this engine will meet the rigorous demands of its customers with 4% better fuel economy over the 2024 X15, optimized powert
Earlier this year, Satya Nadella, CEO and Chairman of Microsoft, aptly described our current era as "...the golden age of systems." This phrase perfectly captures the essence of the digital age, which goes far beyond mere technology or data. It is a profound transformation in how we evolve—shaping our lives, work and interactions with the world around us. Consider the simple act of seeing an ad
The state of California has positioned itself as a central figure in a revolutionary shift from a 100-year path of internal combustion engines (ICE) used in commercial transportation. Within a three-year span, the state has adopted the world’s most stringent commercial vehicle regulations: Advanced Clean Trucks (ACT), the Heavy-Duty Engine and Vehicle Omnibus Regulation and Advanced Clean Fleets (
At Cummins Inc., we’re constantly looking for ways to advance sustainable transportation solutions. As the industry shifts to lower-emission fuels to reduce pollution, natural gas engines are one critical pathway to cleaner mobility. Cummins is therefore working to innovate component-level technologies supporting natural gas engines. Understanding how natural gas engines work and the components
Volatile organic compounds (VOCs) are emitted as gases from a variety of products and processes, including paint and coating operations. While paint can provide protection and aesthetic benefits to products, the VOCs emitted during the painting process also have environmental implications. VOCs can react with nitrogen oxide when exposed to sunlight to create ground-level ozone, contributing to
After working with Cummins Inc. and other major industry suppliers to slash emissions with a hydrogen internal combustion engine (H2-ICE), Southwest Research Institute is moving onto the next phase of its H2-ICE Consortium - drawing on real-world expertise from fleets. SWRI announced earlier this year that its converted hydrogen engine nearly eliminated tailpipe nitrogen oxides (NOx) with a mas
The 1,000 hp Advanced Combat Engine (ACE), developed by Cummins in partnership with the U.S. Army, will be showcased at Australia’s Land Forces Exposition in Melbourne from Sept. 11-13. Incorporating advanced technologies not currently available in diesel combat engines, the compact four-cylinder ACE is designed for infantry fighting vehicles and main battle tanks. The 14.3-liter, two-stroke
As fleets work towards reducing emissions, understanding the differences in aftertreatment systems for various fuel types is crucial. The adoption and growth of hydrogen internal combustion engines (ICE) is a significant step as hydrogen ICE provides a low-emission, low-carbon option for a more sustainable transportation sector. The mechanisms that clean exhaust gases in these engines are fundamen
Is electrification the only decarbonization option for the bus and coach industry right now? That’s a key question that will no doubt be asked at the National Bus & Coach Show at Brisbane’s Exhibition Centre from September 17-18 as the optimism and uncertainties of the future collide with the realities of the moment. While battery electric vehicles may eventually dominate the landscape,
A change of heart Before deciding to repower his K104 Kenworth with a Cummins Inc. X15 Euro 3 engine, Jason Cocks weighed up all the economics in what eventually became a clear-cut verdict. “I looked at every cost aspect, including rebuilding the C15 which was the original engine in the truck,” he says. “But in the end there were several factors strongly in favour of Cummins. “The project

Cummins Valvetrain Technologies reports positive results from further on-road testing of its Jacobs® cylinder deactivation (CDA) technology, which is designed to improve the environmental and economic performance of heavy-duty road vehicles. Fuel savings of 2.76 percent were returned in the first SAE J1321 (Society of Automotive Engineers) standardized fuel consumption testing of Jacobs® CDA, u
In 2017, mining contractor HSE began what has turned out to be a highly successful upgrade of its 2500 hp Cummins Inc. QSK60 engines to reduce its carbon footprint at the South Walker Creek coal mine in Queensland’s Bowen Basin in Australia. Not only that, longer engine life and improved fuel efficiency were benefits that shone through when HSE carried out a cost benefit analysis of several eng
Twenty-eight years ago, in 1996, Cummins Inc. began working with all-Australian spray equipment manufacturer, Goldacres, during development of its first self-propelled crop sprayer. The first Crop Cruiser sprayer went into production in 1999, sporting a 5.9-liter Cummins 6BTA engine producing 177 hp. One thousand Cummins engines later, in 2024, another chapter has been added to
Cummins Inc. is constantly seeking ways to improve the efficiency of fleet service and maintenance events. We know that time spent waiting for repairs can impede a customer’s ability to complete their job on time. Longer downtimes can trigger a ripple effect of delays across the entire fleet.
