Brife Introduction of Cummins East-asia Factory

Cummins East Asia R&D Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as East Asia R&D Center) jointly established by Cummins and Dongfeng Motor Corporation was officially opened in August 2006. Located in Wuhan, it is the 17th technology center established by Cummins in the world, and it is also the second strategic cooperation between Cummins and Dongfeng. Another fruit of the tenth anniversary. It marks that the cooperation between the two parties has been upgraded from the level of product introduction and manufacturing to a new stage of technical cooperation.

East Asia R&D Center is the first foreign-funded diesel engine R&D institution in China. So far, the cumulative investment has exceeded 30 million US dollars, and the third phase of the center was completed in 2009. It is expected that the East Asia R&D Center will become the second largest R&D institution of Cummins in the world after the US Headquarters Technology Center.

The East Asia R&D Center has a construction area of ​​more than 25,800 square meters. It is now equipped with 9 engine benches with full-flow emission testing capabilities, as well as a vehicle pilot center, an electronic control laboratory, and a large number of advanced testing and testing laboratories including applied mechanics and materials science laboratories. Development Platform. Has more than 100 R&D and professional technical support personnel.

In line with the R&D policy based on China and facing the world, the East Asia R&D Center makes full use of the huge capacity of the Chinese market to develop new-generation engines, key components and power system product platforms that can not only meet the needs of the domestic market, but also have first-class international competitiveness. .

East Asia R&D Center is a knowledge- and talent-intensive institution. It is composed of technical experts with rich experience in product development. The technical experts recruited by Cummins in China are sent to Europe and the United States for intensive training in batches. So far, many batches of technical backbones have returned from their studies. They have been invested in many R&D projects. Unanimous praise from experts.

East Asia R&D Center is committed to providing research and development, experimental development and engineering technical services and support for Cummins’ full range of on- and off-highway diesel and CNG engines, power generation equipment, and filtration/exhaust components. Technical services include product and its adaptation development, emission testing, certification services, application engineering and power solutions developed for Chinese customers. In addition to the traditional diesel power, the research and development direction also includes alternative fuel engines such as hybrid power, natural gas, liquefied petroleum gas and the emerging biodiesel. With the advancement of new energy strategies on a global scale. Cummins has accumulated rich technical reserves to promote the sustainable development of the new energy industry.

East Asia R&D Center will also make full use of Cummins’ global R&D network, share advanced R&D resources and product series platforms, and carry out leap-forward development. It is also an open R&D center to develop engine products and technologies simultaneously with the European and American markets. Platform. Like other Cummins technology centers. It not only does various research and development work for Cummins, but also provides corresponding experimental support for other host companies and related government functions in China. Provide technical advice for the formulation and implementation of emission regulations.

The Cummins ISM11-liter heavy-duty electronically controlled engine has been upgraded to the National N standard, successfully led and completed by the East Asia R&D Center, providing power guarantee for the first batch of China V-cut heavy-duty trucks that have been mass-produced and delivered for use
