201 Deutz, the German motor manufacturer, reported first quarter 2015 new orders down 22.5%, but profit rose slightly on the same period last year.

A Deutz statement said new orders received for the first three months totalled €321 million, down from €414.2 million last year.

Unit sales fell by 17%, from around 44,460 engines to just over 36,900 engines. “Much of this decrease is due to the strong sale of engines in the prior-year period ahead of the latest EU exhaust emissions standard,” said the statement.

Revenue amounted to €318.1 million, down by 7.2% from €342.7 million reported a year earlier and in line with performance that was expected for the beginning of 2015.

  • Twin SCR system for Deutz V6 and V8 engines

    Deutz has adopted a dual SCR after-treatment system on its high output TCD Vee engines to meet Tier 4 final emissions standards. Using a dual SCR system, the water-cooled 90-degree V6 12litre and V8 16litre engines, with power outputs from 390-520kW, were found not to require cooled EGR, DOC or DPF technologies. Compared to a similar engine using cooled EGR, Deutz said its TCD12 and TCD16 can operate with a cooling package that is around 20-25% smaller, improving installation packaging for OEMs.
