Truck Turbocharger

If truckers have to work hard to operate their vehicles each day, than commercial vehicle engines have to work just as hard or harder to make the endless treks from coast to cost carrying tons of weight.

According to Borgwarner, these demands placed on commercial engines are great, so great that they put a strain on the aging technology of many only slightly out-of-date engines. While a properly functioning engine is obviously needed in order to operate the vehicle, engines must work at much more than the minimum level to be considered efficient. In fact, efficient engines make all the difference when it comes to long-lasting vehicles and saving money at the pump. An engine with a stronger performance not only allows drivers to get from point A to point B with fewer chances of a breakdown, but also a well performing engine decreases both the amount of fuel used and the amount of emissions created, reductions with both social and personal financial implications.

According to Borgwarner, their company’s technology has what it takes to keep engines running smoothly and without the aid of a great deal of fuel. Featuring the Borgwarner Turbocharger, the company claims that the refinement of this system allows for maximum engine optimization. In fact, the company claims to be a leader in the world of engine development through its refining of the turbocharger system, a component they believe will increase the engine’s potential through its transformations as technology improves.

Currently, Borgwarner has released the K and S series of turbochargers, which each allow a range of 75-100 kilowatts per turbocharger. According to the company, the chargers were made in a very versatile fashion, a great range of sizes and types guaranteeing optimal adaptation across manufacturers and types of heavy-duty commercial vehicles. In fact the company already claims that its turbochargers can span the gap between construction, agricultural, and highway vehicles, improving the engine performance of all three. Developed after a long period of study, the turbochargers were refined using recent developments in fluid mechanics and material science, according to the company.

While Borgwarner’s turbochargers are probably their most famous products, the company is also responsible for the development of a long line of products that increase social responsibility, such as reducing a reliance on fuel and reducing emissions, in addition to lengthening product longevity. A world leader of products in the realm of powertrain systems, Borgwarner is an open environment that encourages contribution and collaboration. While most of those associated with the trucking industry know the company for its products, many across the United States are familiar with the company through its sponsorship of the Borgwarner Indianapolis 500 Trophy. 

While keeping your engine working at its best level of performance through routine maintenance, oil changes, oil filtration, and other methods is important, the quality of engines is routinely deteriorating with time. Truckers who are looking at trucks for sale, may want to invest in one using Borgwarner Turbo charger technology in order to boost their performance while simultaneously acting in a socially responsible manner.
