Cummins ReCon delivers remanufactured engines and parts that provide the same reliability and performance as new Cummins products, but at a lower cost.
ReCon parts can be purchased individually or used in building ReCon engines, which are fully remanufactured with zero hours or miles. Both parts and engines are backed by a Cummins warranty, and many are in stock or available with quick turnaround through Cummins distributors and authorized dealers.

Unlike engine shops that only fix broken parts, Cummins remanufacturing follows a rigorous process—disassembling, inspecting, cleaning, and testing every component to meet original specifications. Design updates are also added, so every ReCon product is built to the latest standards.
With decades of expertise, Cummins continues to advance remanufacturing using tools like 3D printing, collaborative robots, and laser cleaning. These innovations improve efficiency, ensure consistent quality, and create a safer workplace.
The 5 steps in the remanufacturing process
Disassembly
Engines and parts are completely disassembled with great care to protect and prepare key components for processing – right down to the last screw, nut, bolt and spring.
Cleaning
Each part is carefully cleaned using the latest technology to remove debris without removing any metal, including the use of dry ice, enzymes and lasers for specialized cleaning needs.
Inspection
The latest technology, including ultrasonic inspection, is just one of the many methods used to verify that every ReCon product meets original factory specifications.
Restoration
- Worn surfaces are restored with thermal spray and laser deposition
- Computer-controlled lathes and machining centers renew critical components
- If a part doesn’t meet specifications, it is scrapped and replaced with a new Genuine Cummins part
- Any upgrades or supersessions since the original part was made will be included as part of the Cummins remanufacturing process
- State-of-the-art techniques are used to achieve consistent quality in assembly
A great benefit of Cummins remanufacturing is that you can get money back in exchange for your worn-out engine or part. Any Cummins-authorized repair facility worldwide will accept your old part, perform a simple external visual inspection and give you immediate credit toward its replacement. The part just needs to be in off-engine condition to qualify for core acceptance and reimbursement.
