CATERPILLAR SEEMS to be gearing up for a renewed assault on the European heavy truck engine market. Speaking at this year's Mid America Truck Show, Jim McReynolds, Caterpillar's general manager of on-highway engines and power systems North America,said the company's EPA 07 ACE RT engine range included "a solution that is "compliant at both Euro-4 and 5.
"We're talking to OEMs in Europe with a view to supplying engines to them," he added. Caterpillar's current engine line-up runs from 7.2 to 15 litres. with outputs from 190 to 625h1i But its use of ACERTTechnology. in which exhaust gases are passed through a filter before re-injection. is at the centre of a growing controversy in the US. According to McReynolds. there is "a huge storm cloud over EGR engines-.
Caterpillar's test programme indicates that increased EGR will result in soot build-up that will deteriorate fuel economy and shorten engine life.
