Heavy-Duty, On- and Off-Highway Engines 2024

Manufacturers of large engines and their components also have to pay increasing attention to the legal requirements for reducing emissions. Even heavy-duty highway engines need to be put to the test in order to provide the required exhaust gas quality in every performance range and to reduce fuel consumption. The International MTZ Conference "Heavy-Duty, On- and Off-Highway Engines" will take a practical look at system optimization and component development for compact engines. The conference will also show the progress made by engine manufacturers in the development of on-highway engines, among other things, in order to optimize drive systems in terms of fuel consumption and emissions.

Shaping the future of heavy-duty engines will, more than anything else, require the right framework conditions. There will not be an obligation to use a particular technology, as the number of applications and types of use is simply too great. While construction machines in urban areas, for example, can certainly be electrified, there will not be electric alternatives for ships available in the near future. Long periods of operation, TCO, and difficult operating conditions require a wide variety of solutions. This makes it all the more important to verify the applications individually and make them sustainable, whether it is through new technologies or by switching to different sources of energy.

At the MTZ Conference “Heavy-Duty, On- and Off-Highway Engines”, the developers and designers of engines for commercial vehicles, mobile machinery, and marine and stationary equipment will find information on the very latest developments. The 19th conference will be supplemented by a tour of Bell Equipment (Deutschland) GmbH and Emitec Technologies GmbH.
