“We’re making record investments in our technologies and have one of the broadest portfolios of power solutions for industrial applications in the world. Our versatility, scale and longevity position us to help OEMs succeed and we’re thrilled for the opportunity to meet with many of them this year in April at the Bauma trade fair.” 

said Marina Savelli, Vice President, Off-Highway at Cummins.

The X15 powers applications such as large construction bulldozers, cranes and excavators, and is part of the Cummins HELM fuel-agnostic engine platform. The platform’s new power solutions can utilize clean diesel, natural gas, renewable biofuels, or hydrogen, ensuring compatibility with evolving environmental regulations while supporting unique customer requirements during the energy transition. The X15 will offer digital connectivity features, improved fuel economy and longer service intervals compared to its predecessor; all in a smaller package size similar to a 13L engine. Ratings for the X15 will be up to 522 kW (700 hp) and a peak torque of 3200 Nm (2360 lb.-ft.), targeted for Stage V emissions and beyond.

Also on display will be the Tier 4 Final/Stage V compliant Cummins QSK60, which delivers a maximum of 2125kW (2850hp) and a maximum torque of 11,218Nm (8274 lb.-ft.). Equipped with an advanced diagnostics solution, PrevenTech, and serviced by Cummins’ global distribution network, the QSK60 provides over 40,000 hours of operation before requiring an engine overhaul. This engine can then be rebuilt over three times throughout its lifetime, significantly reducing the potential total cost of ownership (TCO) for miners. Cummins’ Power Systems business recently expanded on how its bridge technologies will be used to support the mining industry’s energy transition, including the development of two bridge pathways – hybrid and clean fuel capabilities.
