Telamon employees from the
Industrial Solutions business unit had the pleasure of visiting the Cummins
Midrange Engine Plant (CMEP) in Walesboro, Indiana in February.
Employees were divided into 4 different
groups and were able to see one of the locations where Telamon assemblies are
installed on Cummins diesel engines.
Upon arrival, the Telamon groups were surprised to see a very
interesting and unique facility because operations are under ground level and
parking is on the roof.
During the tours, employees were able to observe highly sophisticated manufacturing technologies from
the engine blocks, the short block and long block lines where over 400
components are assembled onto the engine, and the paint process for
engines.
CMEP manufactures the 6.7L
Cummins Turbo Diesel engine that is primarily used in the Dodge Ram pickup
truck. In December 2013, CMEP was
recognized for building the 2 millionth pickup engine for Chrysler. The first truck that came off the Chrysler
assembly line in 1988 with a Cummins diesel engine is also on display at CMEP.
What a great experience for our Industrial Solutions employees!
