give further cost savings by reducing insulation requirements.
The TCD 2.9 L4 gets its fi rst offi cial public showing at the DEUTZ AG
stand at bauma. The new engine had an initial showing at the Agritechnica
in Hanover in November 2009, albeit as a virtual presentation. A
computer assisted animation enabled trade fair visitors to get a preliminary
glimpse of the DEUTZ technology of tomorrow.
The TCD 2.9 L4 is however not the only new engine from DEUTZ. Whilst
in the middle of the most extreme economic situation of recent decades,
DEUTZ consciously invested in the future by developing the new
TCD 3.6 L4 engine.
The water cooled TCD 3.6 L4 has a power range of 50 to 85 kW and
achieves a maximum of 400 Nm of torque at 1,400 - 1,600 rpm. The
turbocharged 4-cylinder engine, available with or without a charge air
intercooler and cooled external exhaust gas recirculation, is equipped

with a 1,600 bar common rail system and impresses through its low
power to weight ratio and high power density. Long service intervals
also help to keep maintenance costs down. The TCD 3.6 L4, like all
DEUTZ engines, has extremely good cold-start properties and is therefore
suited for use in extreme climatic conditions. A particle oxidation
catalytic converter (DOC + POC) is available for exhaust gas after-treatment,
as well as having a DPF (diesel particle fi ltered) option.
With the introduction of new emission standards, the two newly developed
TCD 2.9 L4 and TCD 3.6 L4 engines tie in with the legendary
DEUTZ 2011-series, which remains in production for current emission
standards. “DEUTZ stands for innovations and best-in-class technology.
Our new engines combine maximum customer benefi t with
minimum operating costs. This will extend and further strengthen
our technological leadership,” emphasized Gino Mario Biondi, DEUTZ
Managing Director of Development and Production. $
