Cummins Opens New Pilot Installation in Germany

Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) has announced the opening of a new Pilot Installation Centre at its Marktheidenfeld, Germany site. The centre will specialise in vehicle and machinery in-use emissions compliance testing. This new facility enhances its European customer support and vehicle testing capabilities across mainland Europe.

The Pilot Installation Centre will support product development of Cummins’ internal combustion engine technology, including advanced diesel engines and aftertreatment systems meeting the latest emissions requirements. The US$1.7m / €1.59m investment sees a 500m2 extension of the existing Cummins Emission Solutions facility, expanding Cummins’ portable emissions measurement system (PEMS) testing, field trial support and re-power capabilities.

“We are delighted to open this new Centre to meet the growing requirement for in-use emissions testing as we work towards future emissions standards. This strategic investment will deliver an expanded service to our customers, as well as support Cummins’ existing Technical Operations functions in Europe. Its central location enables greater connectivity with our partners throughout the region, and we’re looking forward to supporting both current and new customers from this site.” said Helen Carr, Pilot Centre Group Leader at Cummins
