Cummins collaborates with modern construction machinery to develop electric mini excavators

Cummins and Hyundai Construction Machinery (HCE) have announced that they have begun to cooperate in the development of electric mini excavators.

Based on the long-term and fruitful partnership between the two parties, Cummins and Hyundai Engineering Machinery agreed to cooperate in the design and development of electric mini excavators, equipped with Cummins BM4.4E battery modules (4.4 kWh per module) 3.5 tons of excavators, designed to charge After 3 hours, it can work continuously for 8 hours. The equipment will eliminate all gas emissions and greatly reduce noise, making it an ideal choice for urban and suburban construction.

According to DS Kim, senior executive vice president and chief technology officer of Hyundai Engineering Machinery, as the market share of electric vehicles continues to grow, the electrification of commercial power systems is becoming environmentally and economically sustainable for many engineering equipment. solution. Small excavators usually operate in urban construction sites close to residential areas and will become the mainstay of electrified engineering equipment in the near future to meet zero emissions and low noise requirements.

Julie Furber, executive director of Cummins Electric Power Division, said electric mini excavators will be a breakthrough in the market for electric engineering machinery. This collaboration combines the strength of modern multi-purpose excavators with the professional advantages of Cummins lithium battery solutions and equipment integration. Cummins is committed to the development and future development of electric power, and hopes to continue to cooperate with more companies like modern construction machinery to design and test the latest technology in the industry.

With zero-emission standards for mobile devices including small and medium-sized engineering equipment around the world, Cummins is looking for a motorized power solution that is comparable to or better than diesel power reliability and performance.

Cummins BM4.4E battery module

This electric mini excavator consists of 8 BM4.4E modules connected in series with a total energy output of 35.2 kWh and is mounted on the base of the excavator. Cummins designs and manufactures battery modules that achieve higher energy density through lithium-ion technology and maintain battery state-of-charge through patented control technology for longer zero-emission operations. The modular design facilitates the construction of the electric system and is consistent with the cycle time of the excavator.

Modern construction machinery

Hyundai Engineering Machinery (HCE) is a group subsidiary of Hyundai Heavy Industries, which manufactures and sells construction machinery and equipment such as excavators, loaders, and construction vehicles including forklifts, tractors and transport vehicles. Modern engineering machinery produces 50,000 engineering equipment and industrial vehicles annually. The sales target for 2018 is 3.28 trillion won. In the past 30 years, Hyundai Construction Machinery has expanded its distribution channels through a network of 540 dealers in 140 countries.
