The B6.7 engine is suited to installations in crushers, screeners, wheeled loaders and excavators. The firm says that the engine also features stop-start capability which can help reduce running costs, as well as environmental impact, through lower noise and CO_2 emissions. Jeremy Harsin, Cummins off-highway business director, said: "Stop-start capability is included in the B6.7 to further cut fuel consumption as well as overall maintenance costs. Fuel savings should be between 5 and 10% but could be higher based on the machine duty cycle. This feature also delivers the sociability benefits that contractors are looking for by reducing onsite noise and exhaust emissions. Improving fuel efficiency reduces CO_2 greenhouse gas emissions." Cummins says that stop-start has been integrated into the B6.7 platform with both hardware and software changes. Specially developed bearings in the engine, along with upgrades to the flywheel ring gear and starter motor, are designed to ensure long life and reliable performance with frequent starts. |
