have a fleet of trucks and triple trailer units all working 24 7. All have cummins engines and have been hauling iron ore to quarries across australia. have 6 kenworths with isx engines all are 6 years old been running pretty much 24 7 since only shutting down for services. all have done around 25 to 30,000 hours and between 1.1 million to 1.5 million kms. havent had a spanner to any of them. great engines great kenworth trucks!
What an excellent video of a superb engine build facility.
It's great to see the machines and the highly skilled people whom bring these extremely high quality engines into being with such meticulous precision.
There's real pride in building such well respected engines, and it shows!
Not seen any Cummins engines here in the UK for years , It was nice stuff in my truck driving days 60s 70s 80s 90s
Thousands running around in buses
Awesome video!
This was wonderful ...my son has applied for an Apprenticeship at Cummins. I seriously hope he's accepted. College graduate, gotten some interviews and a tour...now nail-biting time for his father...
So its been two years, did your son get accepted?
@@TeamTopKick No... No response...no answer from Cummins... after all of that didn't give him the time of day. He was really disappointed and couldn't understand why they didn't at least contact him, good or bad...If bad, why....Life goes on. As an aside, he lives in Buffalo and graduated from St. Bonaventure so he wasn't some man looking for work from out of state...and he's got mad skilz... Thank you for asking. Hope you and yours had a Merry Christmas and wishing you a Happy New Year.
I just had to do an inframe in my 2013 ISX15 with only 367K miles due to oil consumption and liner polishing. Now taking it back in with frequent regen issue. But nice job on making Cummins look top notch and not a pocket picker
And make sure you buy the extended warranty gonna need it
Leinad..... I'm NOT saying that this is your case, but in "most" cases.... generally, liner polishing is the result of too much extended idling.... and the oil consumption is probably connected with the liner polishing, resulting in poor oil control... or is it leaking it?
wow at 9.20 you say you put on the right parts, thats amazing!
Terry Rack.... in other words, they're (hopefully) Not assembling an engine with (especially) accessory parts or components that should be going on a different engine order. These are Not "one size fits all" car or pick-up truck engines... HD diesels have specific order numbers for each engine and they are set up for specific applications.... even when ordered for (ie:) semi - trucks.. you could have the "same" engine platform for one truck model... but, could have 7 or 8 variations in regards to air compressor and alternator sizes, turbo model and location, etc, etc.
You also have gen-set and industrial application orders as well.... so, Yes.... they need to be paying very close attention to matching the engine serial number with its specific work order number and making sure that all the "right parts" are on each specific engine for it's "end use" application.... and that also applies Internally as well as for external parts.
Static compression ratios vary, depending on end-use application and power levels desired.... so, pistons, camshafts (lobe design & ramp rates) can vary during assembly.... they are Not all the same, whatsoever.
I have 2007 Peterbuilt with 450isx and it’s got 1,400.000 miles and still running strong only thing change was the turbo at 1.000.000 miles good engine
Gracias por la industria de cummins su información.👍
I love cummins they are very reliable engines I know this by facts I used to own the greatest engine ever build by Cummins the N14 plus red head I m going back out there again to do some otr and I guarantee y’all my next engine on my rig is going to be a isx 15
Isx can not hold a candle to the new Detroit. I have had both
Love the isx15. Such a beast!
In your dreams maybe!
i purchased a G855 in 1978. it has been reworked several times with new liners but the Crank has been turned .010 one time to take out scratches in 100,000 hrs.
I have a isx 400 cm870 made at this plant I'm clocking 1,400 million miles haven't rebuild stills pulls strong, you got this one right Jamestown Cummins
Gotta love the hummin cummins !335 !
Cummins engine they make the best diesel engine in the world.
if thats your final answer.detroit diesel
Time to build a 3 liter diesel line six for automotive use. Make it as short as possible like the European sports car line sixes so it fits in most engine compartments. Cummings could corner the market!
yeah...but without the DEF
I got a isx15 cm2250 with 990k miles no oil burning, still running with stock turbo getting 8.2mpg maintenance is key I do all of it by myself, I did main and rod bearings at 920 with new oil pump, thermostat , water pump, egr cooler etc, I'm gonna keep pushing till I notice anything that would indicate rebuild, I do want to add emission system if not on top of it, it will kill the engine, my advice learn and do it yourself shops don't care, cummins will even give you access to quick serve with all info need it to maintenance your engine, I'm happy with cummins and if I get another new truck I'm gonna have it with another cummins engine.
8.2mpg whatfuckenever.
that su la kham phuc moi nguoi ben do.
Australia loves Cummins
Alot of Love/Hate Felling for these engines.. I just bought one to run my log splitter.Plus it comes in Red.
MC 2 lol this guy^
I watch your video make a dream for my job
Very good
Nice👍🏼
Swapped the CatC13 for an ISX-600 in my motorhome and couldn’t be happier!!
Bad mistake.... Cat is much better than Cummings !!
Our l10 has done over 30thousand hours built in 1990 and still going well never have to touch it very much uses 1 liter of oil every 15 hours its a very good engine I drop the oil 🛢 and filters every 250 hours .
constant regen/emission problems. some hardcore pete/kenworth o/o went to Volvo with d13 becouse of that
Personally I think the old big cam formula Cummins were and still are the best engines ever built
Donval Harris I always like the KT series, drove W900 with a KTTA 1150. It got 3 mpg' but it sure pulled good with a 5+4 and 3:73 rears
nope,detroit diesel.
Best engine made. Period
Of course the camerawork is selective, but that looks like an incredible clean facility wall-to-wall.
Jason Ross.... it IS, in fact... that clean.... as most all diesel engine manufacturing plants, Are.
😂😂clean my ass that place is disgusting. They only show yo the good parts in this video.
Congratulations
Good engines an glad to hear that their employees are involved with activities like clean up the environment ! 👍👍
Cummins solo bueno de primera yo tube cummis muy bueno un super motor tanbien detroit al que yo considero el mas economico son estos motores marabillas de la industria americana
Interesting how the painting occurs after assembly. In one way it seems more efficient. However, you would think that that there would be several spots in tight areas that are missed.
Seals up the leaks 😂
There are
Yeah but ya don't really want paint in those spots for sealing tolerances. This method is preferred.
nice production plant. Wonder which car manufacturers order their car motors from CumminsEngines
lenny108...... Zero "car" manufacturers do. However, RAM (Dodge) is 100% Cummins in their diesel pickups, and Nissan is No Longer offering the diesel option starting with the 2020 models..... they said the Cummins V8 was sorely lacking in performance.... which I wouldn't doubt.
Very interesting! But in our work we have Cummins 6isbe from China factory and they have very very low resource, like 250-500 thousand.
ISX 15 litter in T880 KW hauling trash in middle Tennessee dam good engine.
Trash hauling trash
Please supply your next generation of engine for all automobile field
Its very good engine, I’m the one we work from cummins us service technician in philippines
you go,boy.
The best way to kill a engine is to clog it up with soot. Thank you EPA. Cummins was a good engine in its day. I put a lot of miles on a Big Cam 4.
Boston RStar excellent comment, you are exactly correct. EPA should have stayed out of the engine specs.
Why dont do the same quality whit pickups ford or chevy...japan trucks the best truck in world..
If you voted democrat you are partially to blame for the emissions bullshit.
Must has!
The problem with all theses new engines is stupidly strict emissions regulations they have to meet
Regulations was crafted by the same engine maker to rob more money out of your pockets .just think about it which politician knows how a engine works .just like cell phones makers who stop making phones that you can change the battery.
Joe Nichols If the truck is in California. that state is very strict.
@@lionheart7431.... sorry, that is Not true.... the emissions regs were completely orchestrated via the EPA and it was up to All the engine R&D people to try and figure it out on their own on how to make their engines compliant.... and believe me, it was Not something that any of them wanted to deal with.... too many complexities and added costs involved, and "round 2" begins with the 2021 year engines.
Joe Nichols.... hang on!!.... because you haven't seen anything, yet.... the next round begins with the 2021 engines and by 2030, the US EPA is demanding ZERO pollutants out of the stack!!! If anyone is paying attention... then you can see where this is headed and going to end.... ELECTRIC Power!!!... or, at least that's what their "vision" is... but, I'm not "holding my breath" for what will be by 2030... especially in the US.
screw the emissions
How about Chinese trucks with Cummins engine, is made in that plant?
Some of the best diesel engines you can buy for money!
if thats how you feel about it.
You can improve by bringing back the n14 with a better fuel system on it. The isx is junk. Say no to egr and dpf!
The CELECT PLUS is not a better fueling system than the x15 Common Rail fuel system. Going against EGR and DPF (and DOC since it was released alongside the DPF) I am assuming you are supporting emissions of NOx, raw HC, CO, SOx, DPM and many other pollutants. Please correct me if I'm wrong.
jo pete The best engine that Cummins made was the N-14
Please do something about plunger disintegration on the fuel pumps.
Then you'd have a motor last a million miles
ISX = It Sux nothing runs like a Cumapart. Try fixing the cams running flat and the cranks spitting the rods out the block. You fix those problems, paint them Yellow, and call them a Caterpillar you might be on to something.
20 Cat lovers 10 Detroit lovers equals 30 dislikes
sticK&Clutch 2 stroke Detroits are cool though.
Our shop is in-framing or block swapping as low as 4000 hrs good job Cummins
well,aint that special?
Nothing compares to Cummins.
Pavle Pajic your having a laugh surely? Volvo is not even in top 3.
Pavle Pajic I used to work at Scania in the workshop. Nice looking truck, lovely to drive but the engines can't hold a candle to Cummins Volvo are behind Scania in the pecking order.
EVER HEARD OF A CAT. ISX HAS A 1 PIECE HEAD LIKE A CAT. BECAUSE IT'S BETTER THAT WAY. STILL CANT TAKE TO MUCH POWER INCREASE. TURN UP A CUMMINGS, ENGINE'S FAIL MECHANICALLY. TURN UP A CAT, RUNS GREAT. UNTIL THAT RIGHT FOOT GETS TOO GREEDY. THERE'S A REASON WHY GLIDERS WERE MAINLY BUILT WITH A CAT FOR POWER. OR 12.7 FOR ECONOMY. BUT NOT MANY CUMMINGS WERE IN THE MIX. N-14 IF ANY.
I had a 2014 KW T660 with a Cummings 450 HP, I bought it used, I ran the truck for about 2 years, and out of the sudden, the engine blow out a hole on each side of the walls of the block, this the 7 engine that I know that they have this problem, some mechanics won’t recommend Cummings, cause the problem that they blow out with out no reason.
Cual modelo de motor diesel,Cummins tiene la Nissan Titan?
Que??
your engines are only good and reliable as the people working on them.
charles V and the people driving them
Charles
You sound like a Union guy 🤔
I think 2 million miles on a motor that’s never been opened that doesn’t shut off for 6 days at a time is pretty good.
Why does insite always take forevee to turn on?
Just went from Detroit 60 to a ISX cummins. We'll see.
Had a Peterbilt with a Cummins explode at 160k miles. They produce better motors for pickups Than semis. I do like N-14s but I'd rather have a 8v71 or a c-15 or 3406
8V-71? WHY? SO YOU CAN PRACTICE YOUR SHIFTING?
@@redline9536 no, to practice premature hearing loss and brush up my yelling skills
Wow cammins Englan

Ok
I'm glad to see some things produced in the USA. I'm so damn sick of seeing things sold here in this country, not to mention sold in other countries, produced in China.
+Jason Carpp the majority of parts on those engines are made in other countries, like mexico and china.
+Brandon Coccarelli What?! Why China? Mexico, I don't mind. But China? Why?
+Jason Carpp Cheap Products. Given the parts are from another area, the quality and response time of those companies when something goes wrong is actually spot on. The Quality Control aspect is actually pretty good, so there is a trade off there. American Made parts seem to lack the response time of the overseas companies. I used to work there, and the majority of parts are manufactured overseas, but they go through a quality check system about 15 times before the engine is even painted, so the quality is there, but the Manufacturing location is just in another area.
+Brandon Coccarelli That doesn't make *any* sense. I would think that it'd take less time for the product to reach its destination if it were produced here in this country. If it were to be sold in Asia, I would accept Made in China. Or Made in Australia, if it were to be sold in the South Pacific countries. But for the North American market, I'd prefer something made in either the USA or Canada, or Made in Mexico, for Mexico and South America. I would think it would depend on the country to which the product were to be sold.
+Jason Carpp so! a lot of machinery and trucks made in China and Russia Cummins engines and ZF gear box and axles!i'm hungarian truck driver.in hungary manufactured for 5 years allison automatic truck and bus transmissions!no problem!us made and hungarian made transmission equally good!
Llevenme aya alguien de esa compañía
Hello sir i am from India but i am unable to join training of cummins plz help.
I love my ISX15...just wish it ran cooler.
John Mankin change thermostat then
well,aint that just special.
God bless Cummins.
and,detroit diesel.
Một chiết máy đó bán chị giá bao nhiêu đô vậy
started out and was built by world wide known best metal furniture co plant. but the local union kept going on strike for months at a time till this newly built plant closed permenatly. laid vacunt for years till cumings bought it.
i wonder if the local union people learned a lesson. That union almost destroyed jamestown. Art metal company just shut down out of buisness.
screw the unions
Tony Stark ordered his in RED.....I want Cummins POWA in RED too
sticK&Clutch.... if it's built for either "automotive" or industrial applications.... it will be Red... whether you order it, or not..... Unless, it's a factory Re-man engine of the older "855" platform... then it Will come in "Cummins Beige" paint... unless it's for some other application other than automotive or industrial use. The Cummins N14 & M11 truck engines were all in Black paint, except for the Owner Operator spec'd N14 (with the 460 hp rating) which was Black, with Red rocker covers... nick named the "red head" engine.
The marine versions use to be in White.... as were, many of the Cats. The only other paint color exception for the earlier "855" block in hd truck use, were from Paccar.... parent co. to Pete & KW during the very late 1960s and early 1970s, when they ordered the Cummins & Cat engines painted in White, but the Detroits remained in their factory "Alpine Green" color.... except for those that were shipped to International Trucks, they ordered them specially painted in "International Harvester Red".
i hope you thanked the Japanese because they showed you how to do this the did the same thing in the EU and UK
We taught the earth how to make vehicles and engines with interchangeable parts. Henry Ford, for the big one. We rebuilt Japan after the war and all the DNA in their manufacturing goes right to the USA
Sorry, the USA taught the earth how to build vehicles and engines starting with Henry Ford - with interchangeable parts. All manufacturing DNA in Japan leads to the USA from our helping them rebuild after the war. The UK in turn taught the USA the mechanics of machinery in the 1800's and we ran with it.
Wrong.... Quite the reverse
Isx that is not the old 855's
2:28 MADE IN CHINA
Its a simple cover that I doubt can be built wrong. But an interesting find in the video. Video guy going to get bitch slapped by Joe Cummins
Block is made in Mexico! Its casted on the right side of the block.
No it's American independent engine maker
ผมเป็นคนไทยครับอยากไปทำงานกับcummins
Fix the dam injector cups on the ISX please!!!!!!!!!!!

Nice modern plant... with Americans working and making the best product they can...
Be nice if you said what state Jamestown is in....
I worked for Cummins starting in 1995 and can truly say i liked it there very much. Then covid hit and our shop slowed down i was laid off temporally (ha ) for 90 days. over 120 days latter with no explanation i was what they said furloughed . I had never been written up for any thing i had never even been late to work once . I worked on every engine platform Cummins had at the time from the B all the way up to high HP K engines and Onan gensets. I also was the only tech certified to diag and repair industrial alternators for transit buses. I truly believe the reason i was let go is our branch manager at that time (JIM) did not like me for some reason and i was the oldest tech in the shop at that time almost 60 years old... I really thought this was going to be my retirement job . Thanks for nothing (JIM) Cummins Sales and Service Grand Junction Colorado

hi ben türkiyeden yazıyorum .uzun yıllar değişik motorların revizyonunu yaptım.cumminslerin v8 855 cummins ntta big cam kt 19 vs .Ancaaak cummins kt 19 serilerinde bir hata buldum.bu hatayı türkiyedeki birçok ustalar göremiyor ve subap enjektör ayarını yanlış yapmasına ve enjektör memesi kırılmasına hatta iticilerin eğilmesine sebep oluyor.Bu makinedeki hatayı söylüyorum. Motorun önündeki titreşim damperindeki sente harfleri.yani A B C .üst ölü noktalarını gösteren harfler.Bloktaki çentik bu harflere geldiğinde ateşleme zamanı geçmiş oluyor.Bu şekilde subap ve enjektör ayarı yapınca motor düzensiz çalışıp arıza veriyor.Türkiyede ki ustalar bunun farkına varamıyorlar.Umarım bana tekrar geri dönersiniz teşekkürler.
I had a new Volvo a few years ago it had 400 N 14 engine it ran and pulled better then the IXS motors in the other trucks we had.i took the tractor too Allentown Mack the mechanic came out with the computer box and he set it up right.i think its sad that they turn the power down on trucks now .trucks on the turnpike run at 65 too 68 thats it companys want too save fuel .Ryder JBH Sneider and other trucking companies drivers run the passing lane too much and get mad at you when you pass them thats sad.i think too making big horse power engines like a 400 too 550 are a waste of time.Please people i have driven a 18 wheeler sent i was 17 years old i m now 54 .my dad drove all Macks and is 84 now wow.trucking is fun too me drivers .if you buy your own truck have them set it up like you want thats all.i got two speeding tickets in my life one when i was 19 and one back 2002 people be careful out there God bless.
Recently i changed the oil cooler of the ISX .
Hmmmmm oil cooler is not reliable in Cummins as I also have replaced numerous in Cummins QSX15 industrial and generator drive engines. Similar to ISX truck or vehicular engine 😎

Great to see legal Americans working
If that plant in Jamestown, NY is still in existence, I'm shocked. NYS is the most "business unfriendly" state in the US. Cummins could pay a whole lot less to do it's business if it moved the operation to the South.

@@RangaTurk Jamestown, NY so it says in the description
Strap in to watch an ENORMOUS COMMERCIAL
why dowa cummina use different paints- red-green-tan
Color depends on use of the engine. Red now is over the road. Green is a Generator or equipment. Tan is offroad also.
@@Pete-from-Tn THX
I need that trailer to hook up to my truck to see what's wrong with this x15 boat anchor... Feels like I'm driving an old 80's cummins... Of course it doesn't help that the exhaust hits a 90 degree brick wall not more than 20 inches from the turbo so it can get down to the power and fuel economy robbing DPF... Diesels need to BREATH, the epa is choking the crap out of them....
Testing at full throttle and or rapid acceleration is not a good break in procedure
All engines get put on the dyno for a good while before leaving the plant...love that Cummins and Rogue Red
pound for pound ,i would pit a detroit diesel agaist cummins any day of the week.
Wait James town New York?

Huh 365000 miles valve stem broke on my x 15 over 40 000 dollars and a month to get parts
you just need to develop a more efficient engine, it needs to do better miles/gallon
Yea well those turbo they use garbage I basically took a 2012 and turned into a 05 lol
