JCB deal just the beginning for kohler: U.K. equipment icon's selection of KDI diesels to power compact machines first major application for engine line

摘要

When Kohler first unveiled its Kohler Direct Injection (KDI) engines in late 2011, company executives indicated that the development had drawn a great deal of interest from "very recognizable" global equipment manufacturers. That interest was manifested last fall when, in what was a surprising move to many, U.K. equipment icon JCB announced that it had linked up with Kohler for the supply of Stage 3b/Tier 4 final engines for several JCB compact machine lines.
