Dongfeng Launched Its KL and KR Trucks in Wuhan


On January 6, Dongfeng Commercial Vehicle officially released its new generation truck, KL. The new truck is equipped with 11 liter dCi465 engine with a maximum 465 horsepower and a maximum torque of 2,200 N.m. In addition, it is mounted with 14-speed manual DT1420 transmission gearbox and 1,000 Liter oil tank.

The truck is able to reach a speed ratio of 2.87 and cut its maintenance costs thanks to Dongfeng Dana maintenance-free rear axle and Conmet oil lubricated wheel end. Having gone through a host of optimizations, the truck has successfully lowered its body weight to 8.25 tons and improved its fuel economy.

Apart from the new Dongfeng KL truck and Dongfeng KR truck, a vehicle chassis for urban sanitation purpose and 560 horsepower Dongfeng KL flagship truck, both of which meet National VI Emission Standards, were officially revealed to the public in Wuhan.



The 6×4 vehicle chassis is built on D320 and is targeted at the heavy-duty sanitation truck market. With a host of advanced technologies, including DOC, DPF, SCR and ASC, it fully meets National VI B Emission Standards.

The 300 horsepower truck is equipped with DDi75 engine and has increased its torque to 1,400 N.m. Having lowered its body weight to 8.2 tons and adopted four latest fuel-saving technologies, the truck is able to cut fuel consumption by 6-9%.

Dongfeng company also produces engine for diesel generator power range from 20KW to 400KW.

What Is the Difference Between Electric Motor and Electric Generator

An electric motor is an electrical machine that converts electrical energy into mechanical energy. Most electric motors operate through the interaction between the motor's magnetic field and winding currents to generate force. In certain applications, such as in regenerative braking with traction motors, electric motors can be used in reverse as generators to recover energy that might otherwise be lost as heat and friction. An electric generator operates in the reverse direction, converting mechanical energy into electrical energy. Electric generator can be divided into various type, open type, silent type, trailer type, portable type and container type, etc. Electric generator is mainly composed of diesel engine & alternator. Electric generator set is mainly composed of engine, alternator, control module, and common base. Electric generator :- Electric generator is a type of machine which converts mechanical input (energy) into electrical output (...

Baudouan Weichai 1530KW Diesel Generator Set 16M33 Series Engine

Weichai is the earliest enterprise in China to develop and produce generator sets, with a production history of over 60 years. It mainly produces land - based and marine generator sets, including diesel - type and gas - type units. Weichai's M33 series engines include 6M33, 12M33, and 16M33 diesel engines. These are high - power high - speed diesel engines independently developed by Weichai based on the mature product platform of Baudouin's M26 series in France. The development of this series of models fills the gap in Weichai's high - speed diesel engines for power generation in the 500 - 1530kW power range, enabling effective competition with foreign brands. The M33 series Weichai engines inherit and carry forward the advanced product development and design concepts of the French Baudouin M26. They are benchmarked against international advanced engines, effectively avoiding various design defects. The product development emphasizes high reliability and low emissions. Th...
