Cummins Reveals New QSK95 Engine With Over 4000 Horsepower
Most Powerful High-Speed Diesel Engine In Industry: First In New High-Horsepower Platform For Diesel And Gas
Cummins Inc. today revealed at the Seymour Engine Plant the new QSK95 engine with over 4000-hp (2983 kW) output as the world’s most powerful high-speed diesel. The 95-liter 16-cylinder QSK95 is the first engine to be introduced in a new high-horsepower diesel and gas platform from Cummins. The new product line will extend up to the 120-liter 20-cylinder QSK120, capable of over 5000-hp (3728 kW) output.
Designed with exceptional strength and high power density, the 16-cylinder QSK95 exceeds the power output of other large 1800-rpm high-speed engines with 20-cylinders. Compared with much larger medium-speed engines operating below 1200 rpm, the QSK95 offers a far more compact and cost-effective solution to achieve the same power output.
