Updated Approach for Diesel Engines to Reduce Downtime, Boost Efficiency
InTu Mobility, a technology advisory firm that specializes in helping companies transport and track goods, announced today the launch of its new DIESEL I.O. Intelligent Optimization solution for heavy-duty diesel engines, created to eliminate complex diesel engines issues caused by emission control features and specifically aftertreatment systems.
Here’s the setup: Emission control features and aftertreatment systems added to diesel engines have been causing significant problems and soaring maintenance costs for trucking companies since 2007, when the EPA (Environmental Protection Agency) mandated stringent standards to reduce emissions from on-road heavy-duty trucks and buses.
Although many combat aftertreatment problems, fleets still routinely face unpredictable downtime and high repair costs are from problems caused by aftertreatment issues. Ten years after the mandate, the majority of companies that transport goods are still stranded, and with no resolution in sight.
“We’ve been helping companies work more efficiently in the field through mobile technology,” said Tony Horling, founder, InTu Mobility. “Yes, exhaust aftertreatment systems have accomplished their objective by reducing emissions, but emissions systems create upstream & downstream problems. When we heard the struggles our customers had with diesel engine aftertreatment issues we wanted to help, and brought-in the top master mechanics from around the U.S. to develop a solution.”
Diesel I.O. Intelligent Optimization combines innovative, diesel engine software with unconventional calibration methods and training, to offer fleet managers and mechanics, a resolution that eliminates aftertreatment issues, provides predictive maintenance analysis, and improves fuel efficiency while being 100% EPA compliant.
InTu Mobility Master Mechanic, Rob Seegers commented, “Ten years is way too long for trucking companies to be dealing with aftertreatment and DPF issues. We go out to a site, set-up a Diesel I.O. pilot on 6-10 trucks, then come back in 30 days with the results. Aftertreatment problems can be eliminated.”
Companies can reduce maintenance costs by 55% and increase fuel efficiency by 10%-15%.
