The most eye-catching is undoubtedly Cummins's introduction of a conceptual emission control system that can meet future Euro 7 emissions, a true NOx zero-emission technology, and the world's first advanced multi-purpose PowerDrive electric hybrid system. This plug-in hybrid electric powertrain solution meets the needs of a wide range of light, medium and heavy duty applications.
Cummins Releases Future Diesel Nitrogen Oxide Quasi-Zero Emissions Technology at Hannover International Commercial Vehicle Show
Cummins has announced innovative technologies for achieving zero-emissions of nitrogen oxides and reducing carbon footprint at the International Commercial Vehicle Show (IAA) in Hannover.
In the technology demonstration session, Cummins highlighted a conceptual emission control system. The system can reduce emissions to unprecedented levels and even meet the Euro 7 emission standards expected to be implemented in the next decade. Cummins combines this conceptual emission control system with the latest intelligent electronics technology to represent another revolutionary leap in diesel engines.
Tim Proctor, executive director of Cummins Product Management and Market Innovation, said, "This innovative system can improve fuel economy while further reducing nitrogen oxides and particulate emissions. Several other Cummins developed to reduce drag and friction losses. Innovative technologies will also continue to drive the development of diesel engines in a more energy-efficient manner. In addition, by upgrading the design tool functions and using advanced materials such as composite materials, the strength of the parts is reduced while the weight of the parts is reduced, further improving the vehicle's work efficiency."
Cummins Chairman and CEO Tom Linebarger introduces Cummins' multi-energy power solutions including clean diesel and electric
Procmor said, “Although Cummins is in full swing in electrification projects, another key message we want to convey at the IAA is that diesel engines are not stagnating. As our technology advances, we believe that for the foreseeable future, Diesel is still the main source of power in the commercial vehicle sector. Cummins is committed to providing the right power solution based on the customer's different vehicle models, mission cycles and business requirements."
The conceptual emission control system being developed by Cummins combines turbocharged air management and exhaust aftertreatment into a single tight coupling system with new rotary turbine control (RTC) technology. This new design leverages Cummins' latest technology in air and thermal management to enable almost all NOx emissions to be rapidly converted to clean gases after being subjected to a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system.
The area in which Cummins has made progress is not limited to hardware upgrades. By continuously innovating and improving the functions of the intelligent connection system, Cummins can realize remote real-time monitoring, real-time reporting of operational status, and remote calibration and maintenance services for the equipment in use, improving vehicle uptime and reducing life cycle costs. Cummins will further accelerate the development of digital technology in the future, strengthen remote intelligent customization support and management functions, and help fleet managers to personalize power and speed according to the unique needs of various businesses, driver driving habits, road conditions and geographic coordinates.
In addition, Cummins ADEPTTM forward-looking smart assisted driving technology fully unlocks the powertrain automation potential, allowing drivers to become experts and further fuel economy by 6%. In terms of function, the Predictive Cruise Control system can use the vehicle GPS system to observe the road condition 2 km ahead of the vehicle and accurately adjust the speed according to the terrain in front. SmartCoast technology can be used to adjust the powertrain to a neutral position on a downhill section, using the vehicle's momentum to save fuel. SmartTorque2 calculates the exact torque required for truck payloads in real time to minimize downshifts.
Cummins has a multi-purpose electric hybrid system PowerDrive Hannover International Commercial Vehicle Show debut
Cummins Inc. launched the world's first PowerDrive plug-in hybrid electric power system solution at the 2018 Hannover International Commercial Vehicle Show (IAA), which meets the needs of diverse applications for light, medium and heavy duty. This move further expands Cummins' low-emission, low-fuel-powered solutions to customers with a diverse range of power options including clean diesel engines, zero-emission natural gas engines and pure electric power to meet the diverse needs of users.
Kenworth T370 electric hybrid multi-purpose truck equipped with Cummins hybrid system
This unique hybrid system is fitted to a Kenworth T370 electric hybrid utility vehicle on display at the Cummins booth. Like most multi-purpose hybrid systems on the market today, Cummins PowerDrive systems are available in both parallel and series versions. PowerDrive replaces traditional gearboxes and switches, allowing real-time switching between two hybrid modes and two pure electric modes to optimize the drive train for optimum fuel economy in any driving situation. The vehicle is also equipped with a power quality level of the grid to charge other vehicles, and can also be configured as a rescue crane powered by electric or engine.
The fleet of Cummins PowerDrive systems has traveled more than 6 million miles (10 million kilometers) in the US and China. Cummins is working on introducing the system to the European market in the near future. The PowerDrive system is flexible and can be used with different sizes of diesel or natural gas engines and battery packs.
Julie Furber, Executive Director of Cummins Electric Power Division, said, “A hundred years of success and success. Cummins once again demonstrated that we are changing the way we transport in the future. We provide our customers with the most diverse and most advanced power system solutions with comprehensive service capabilities. ."
“The Cummins PowerDrive system is intelligent, versatile and compact, allowing our road engine customers to flexibly respond to different business and market needs. Cummins is now ready to offer the latest PowerDrive system through OEM partners. We look forward to exploring how to take advantage of PowerDrive's compact package and lightweight, allowing OEMs to produce plug-in electric vehicles that meet different needs without compromising vehicle performance and cruising range."
Cummins PowerDrive System
With a flexible hybrid architecture, the PowerDrive system seamlessly switches from a purely electric mode that meets the 50-mile (80-kilometer) range of the most environmentally-friendly areas to a hybrid mode that requires 300 miles (480 kilometers) of cruising range. The system can be operated in series or parallel mode. The series mode is more suitable for low-speed driving situations such as city driving (stop/start state), and the parallel mode is ideal for high-speed road driving. In the series hybrid mode, only the motor supplies power to the wheels. The motor receives power from the battery pack or engine. In the parallel hybrid mode, the engine and the motor together provide power to drive the wheels forward. When the system senses that climbing or accelerating overtaking requires more energy, a third mode, the enhanced power mode, is turned on.
Future transportation requires us to reduce emissions without compromising fuel economy and driving performance. The PowerDrive system was created to meet these needs. The Cummins PowerDrive-powered US Six-Class truck has an electric range of 50 miles (80 kilometers) and can reduce emissions by up to 80% compared to conventional vehicles. At the same time, fuel costs can be reduced by 40%-80% depending on the cycle conditions.
Introduction to electric hybrid multi-purpose truck
The Kenworth T370 is a US six-stage truck powered by the Cummins PowerDrive 6000 system and the Cummins B6.7 engine. The car weighs 33,000 pounds (15 tons). Commissioned by Cummins, this service vehicle is used to support road testing and route test drive activities for electric vehicles and plug-in hybrid vehicles. The car is equipped with three car charging piles (1 100 kW fast charging pile, 2 6.6 kW standard charging piles), which can be directly charged through the charging line for plug-in hybrid vehicles or electric vehicles that need to be charged.
