Indianapolis, Ind. -- Governor Mike Pence concluded business in Beijing today learning how Indiana-headquartered Cummins Inc. (NYSE: CMI) is leading the way in innovation and production of clean technology at its Beijing Foton Cummins Engine Company.
"For Cummins, it starts in Indiana. Technology developed by Hoosiers in Columbus is powering Cummins engines built around the world, including here in China," said Pence. "As Cummins grows and thrives in these markets, more high-wage jobs in engineering and R&D are created at home."
Established in 2008, the Beijing Foton-Cummins facility (BFCEC) produces the Cummins ISF light duty engine and ISG heavy duty engine, both meet tough emission standards while achieving a high degree of fuel efficiency. Even though the engine platforms are targeted primarily for Chinese markets, their cutting-edge technology is a result of the collaboration of a global team, including more than 100 U.S. engineers, many of whom are based in Columbus, Indiana.
