INTERMAT launch for Cummins QSF 2.8

Cummins has revealed its latest engine platform to cover the 37-55kW sector. Called the QSF2.8, the new four-cylinder platform is the smallest engine from Cummins to use full-authority electronic controls for high-pressure common rail injection. The 2.8litre engine is available in naturally aspirated (37kW) and turbocharged (55kW) packages, and has been developed as a global engine platform.

RSS196 Cummins has revealed its latest engine platform to cover the 37-55kW sector.

Called the QSF2.8, the new four-cylinder platform is the smallest engine from Cummins to use full-authority electronic controls for high-pressure common rail injection.

The 2.8litre engine is available in naturally aspirated (37kW) and turbocharged (55kW) packages, and has been developed as a global engine platform.

“The QSF2.8 brings new power capability to many OEMs,” said Hugh Foden, executive director of Cummins off-highway business.

“Combining a sculpted cylinder block design with composite materials for the oil pan, oil filter and valve cover, we’ve been able to keep the wet weight of the QSF2.8 to just 230kg.”

    The new Hi-Stability technology featured in the latest range of Goodyear tyres is said to increase load capacity in off-road applications by up to 25%. The new tyres have been developed to match the power, speed and torque of the industry’s latest machines. Hi-Stability tyres allow higher inflation pressures, increasing the load capacity of the machines to which they are fitted – it is the air that carries the load. A loader that can hold 9tonnes when fitted with conventional tyres at 5bar can carry 12tonne
