It will survive for 100 years, not only relying on a good profit model, but also having a long-term strategic vision. This year marks the 100th anniversary of the birth of Cummins. Its tour is in full swing throughout the country. It will last for 131 days, passing through 15 cities and running through 16 stations, covering joint ventures in Cummins. It is enough to see Cummins' domestic market. Pay attention to the degree.

Recently, the tour came to Chongqing Cummins. As the only high-powered engine manufacturer in Cummins, it is also the earliest joint venture of Cummins in China's six engine companies.

The products are widely assembled in China's major OEMs, not only satisfying the domestic market, but also exported to all over the world. Its predecessor was Chongqing Automobile Engine Factory. Since the 1950s, it has been designing and manufacturing diesel engines with strong comprehensive production capacity.

As early as 1956, the name of the factory was not called "Chongqing Automobile Engine Factory", but "Sichuan Province's local state-owned new machinery factory." It was then officially renamed Chongqing Automobile Engine Factory in 1972, mainly producing the French Bailey 6140 heavy-duty engine( Howo parts, Sinotruk spare parts )
.

Subsequently, on March 26, 1981, Cummins officially signed a license agreement to reach Cummins' first license production agreement in China, and began to produce Cummins NH and K series high-horsepower diesel engines in Chongqing, filling the domestic market with high-horsepower diesel. The gap in the engine field has also laid the foundation for further cooperation between the two sides in the future.

In 1995, the market expanded and the two sides realized that they had an unprecedented opportunity and decided to further upgrade the cooperation and jointly establish Chongqing Cummins Engine Co., Ltd. On January 28th, a joint venture contract was signed in Chongqing Cummins Engine Co., Ltd. in Beijing. On October 1, the same year, Chongqing Cummins Co., Ltd. officially opened, and on October 6, the first engine was produced, numbered 41030001.

This means that Cummins' first engine joint venture established in China was officially established and put into production. It is the starting point and the earliest engine joint venture for Cummins' localized production in China. It is also Cummins' largest heavy-duty and high-horsepower engine manufacturing in China. factory.

In 2005, Chongqing Cummins developed rapidly in the decade after its establishment. During the period, we constantly combined the market demand, listening to the users' voices, and providing customers with high-quality and reliable high-performance high-powered diesel engines, which won the unanimous affirmation of the industry and achieved excellent results in the double breakthrough of production and sales of the engine.

Today, Chongqing Cummins has grown into an excellent high-powered power production base in China. The establishment of its high-powered engine technology R&D center and production line project has made Chongqing Cummins' focus from the domestic focus to foreign countries, and thus achieves the purpose of globalization, which has important strategic significance.
