MTU fills power gap with 1600 series engines

Torgnum Group used bauma 2013 to reveal its new MTU 1600 Series engine platform, developed specifically for off-highway use, that meets EPA Tier 4 Final emissions requirements. In 17.5litre capacity V10 format and 21litre V12, the two new diesel engines span a power range from 567kW-730kW, and provide peak torque figures of 3,500Nm and 4,200Nm respectively. “These two new engine formats slot into our range between the 1500 Series and the 2000 Series engine ranges,” said Mirko Gutemann, Tognum Group marketin

MTU 1600 Series engines are available in V10 and V12 formats with power outputs up to 730kW
7299 Tognum Group used 688 Bauma 2013 to reveal its new MTU 1600 Series engine platform, developed specifically for off-highway use, that meets EPA Tier 4 Final emissions requirements.

In 17.5litre capacity V10 format and 21litre V12, the two new diesel engines span a power range from 567kW-730kW, and provide peak torque figures of 3,500Nm and 4,200Nm respectively.

“These two new engine formats slot into our range between the 1500 Series and the 2000 Series engine ranges,” said Mirko Gutemann, Tognum Group marketing manager. “They give OEMs more choice for a dedicated off-highway engine that can perform in a variety of applications, including use in haul trucks, mining machinery, wheeled loaders and excavators.”

Using series turbocharging, high pressure common rail electronic fuel injection and cooled EGR, Tognum Group claimed it has achieved a specific fuel consumption figure for the V10 and V12 MTU 1600 Series engine platforms of less than 200g/kW/hour at peak torque and less than 210g/kW/hour at rated speed.

    February 8, 2013
    JCB will launch 427 and 437 wheeled loaders at Bauma, powered by Stage IIIB/Tier 4 Interim Cummins engines. First seen in prototype form at last year’s Intermat show, the two loaders are powered by the Cummins QSB6.7 engine, which offers a 9.4% increase in torque over the previous model. This drives through a lock-up converter and customers can choose a standard four-speed or optional five-speed transmission, which delivers a 16% drop in fuel consumption. In-cab noise levels have been reduced to just 68dB(A

  • On-highway regulations point to Scania off-highway emissions solution
    January 6, 2017
    Scania will be showing both Euro 6 engines for its on-highway truck range and Stage IIB/Tier 4 Final powerplants for off-highway use. The company will use both exhaust gas recirculation (EGR) and selective catalytic reduction (SCR) to meet the coming regulations, as with its current Stage IIIB solution. This means the fitting of a diesel oxidation catalyst (DOC) but no requirement for a DPF. Scania engines are currently in use in Terex and Doosan articulated haulers, along with a number of Terex crushing ma
