MAN Engines unveils E3872 gas engine
The new MAN E3872 gas engine offers 44% efficiency and 735 kW power output from just 12 cylinders. Design modifications have made it possible to significantly increase the mechanical efficiency.
Two-stroke engines and efficiency (part 2)
Two-stroke engines have two important advantages over four-stroke engines in terms of efficiency. This article about the link two-stroke engines and efficiency sounds as the natural evolution of the previous research of Serguei Tikhonenkov, MSc. We propose to our readers the second part of the new s...

Why are lubricants so important? ADDINOL knows…
Efficiency, a refrain that rages through the world of industrial applications. The efficiency lever should not be sought solely in thermodynamic parameters (HERE the Weichai record). We asked the German manufacturer ADDINOL to talk about their high-efficiency lubricants for heavy-duty operation. &nb...
Volvo Penta and efficiency. The five Swedish declensions
Volvo Penta and efficiency. We all usually call it efficiency. But Volvo Penta has found a way to pursue the same goal, but with a different semantics: to maximize uptime. In Guthenburg they show five ways to go. Listen straight from their words (for first, refresh on Stage V). Volvo Penta and effic...

AS Labruna was present at the DPE - International Electricity Expo in Rimini with LF, FPT Industrial dealer for North Africa, and MOVe, startup for the electrification of on-road vehicles, such as the Metrocab of Fresia
FPT Industrial: let’s go, XC13
The XC13 surely sounds agnostic in FPT Industrial’s unofficial nomenclature; it comes, indeed, with a tripartite certification: Euro 6E (winking an eye at the upcoming Euro 7), methane gas and also biofuel, with a link to hydrogen. Andrea Abbà, FPT’s product marketing manager, told us about dialogui...
