For Ebunoluwa O., a Senior Purchasing and Supply Continuity Specialist in Columbus, Indiana, ensuring parts flow smoothly across multiple manufacturing sites is more than a job—it’s a mission. With expertise in procurement, a global perspective and a commitment to teamwork, she plays a critical role in keeping Cummins operations resilient and efficient.

The Cummins 6LTAA8.9-C360 diesel engine is a high-performance power unit widely used in construction machinery, heavy-duty trucks, drilling rigs and other heavy-duty equipment. With a rated power of 360 horsepower (264 kW) at 2200 rpm and a peak torque of 1400 N·m at 1400 rpm, this engine features turbocharging and intercooling technology, delivering strong power, high fuel efficiency and reliable performance. To fully exert its power potential and ensure stable operation of the whole equipment, the selection of a suitable transmission is crucial. The core principle of transmission matching is that the maximum input torque of the transmission must be compatible with the peak torque of the engine, while considering the application scenario, load condition and operation requirements.

Cummins is taking its growing engine lineup directly to customers this spring, reviving a road-tested marketing strategy first used nearly a century ago by founder Clessie Cummins. Following a successful introduction at the American Trucking Associations’ Technology & Maintenance Council (TMC) Annual Meeting, the Forever Rising Tour will travel nationwide through May 2026. Five trucks equipped with the company’s latest engines will travel cross-country to trade shows and custom events nationwide, a concept drawing on inspiration from the company’s legacy of hands-on demonstrations and direct customer connection.
