Volvo kommer att tillverka den nya D13-motorn på tre fabriker
Så totalt för Volvo globalt skulle ungefär kunna vara:
Skövde: ~120–150k motorer
Hagerstown: ~80–120k ( inkl Macks motorer)
Curitiba: ~25–50k
Det blir totalt kanske runt 230 000–320 000 tunga dieselmotorer per år inom Volvo Group för dessa huvudfabriker. Det är faktiskt en enorm CGI-bas för SinterCast om stora delar är D13/D16-familjen.
Jag räknar med att det går ca 7-8 ekvivalenter på en motor
Mack som producerar sina motorer i Hagerstown de har sagt att orderböckerna öppnar i aug-26 och leveras kommer att ske sent 2026 eller tidigt 2027 för de nya lastbilarna som är av årsmodell 2028. Detta blir en rivstart på vägen mot 8 milj ekvivalenter. Det kommer mera. Alla analytiker har missat detta verkar det som. Härligt för Anjos att ta över just som de ökar så bra.
Med den information som redan finns och har publicerats på skilda ställen om VOLVO och CGI i motorn D13 så måste en PR från Sintercast om detta komma senast på bolagsstämman den 19/5 2026.
Mitt stall tips!
Det vi med bestämdhet vet är att volymen kommer att ligga på 5 miljoner under 2027 !
The Cummins X10 engine is a next-generation 10-liter diesel engine scheduled for full production in 2027 to meet EPA emissions standards. It is designed to replace both the L9 and X12 engines, serving vocational, transit, and regional haul applications. [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
Key details regarding the X10 and its 2027 applications include:
2027 Compliance & Technology: The X10 is designed to meet EPA 2027 regulations a year early, featuring a 48-volt alternator and advanced aftertreatment heater solutions to manage emissions.
Power and Torque Ratings:Heavy-Duty Applications: Up to 450 horsepower and 1,650 lb-ft of torque.
Medium-Duty Applications: Up to 380 horsepower and 1,250 lb-ft of torque.

is x 10 using cgi in the block
Yes, the Cummins X10 engine features a sculpted block designed to maximize strength while minimizing weight, and it is expected to utilize Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI). [, 2]
CGI has become a staple for Cummins’ latest engine architectures because it provides roughly 75% higher tensile strength and 45% higher stiffness than traditional gray iron. This material allows the X10 to be approximately 100 pounds lighter than the X12 it replaces, while still handling the higher cylinder pressures required for 2027 emissions compliance. [1, 2, 3]
Key Block Features
Material: While Cummins often uses the general term "cast iron," recent X-series and 6.7L platforms have transitioned to CGI to achieve the durability needed for high-torque applications without the weight penalty.
Design: The block is "sculpted," meaning material is strategically removed from low-stress areas and reinforced in high-stress zones.
Manufacturer: Tupy, a major global casting company, is a primary supplier of CGI blocks for several heavy-duty engine manufacturers, including components for Cummins, Scania, and Ford. [1, 3, 5, 6]
Why CGI for 2027?
The EPA 2027 standards require engines to run cleaner and more efficiently, which often involves higher internal pressures and temperatures. CGI is ideal because:
Fatigue Resistance: It offers nearly double the fatigue strength of gray iron.
Weight Reduction: The higher strength allows for thinner walls without sacrificing structural integrity.
Thermal Stability: It maintains its shape and seal better under the intense heat cycles of modern aftertreatment systems. [, 2]
💡 Key Takeaway: The X10's shift toward a lighter, "sculpted" block is a direct result of using high-strength materials like CGI, likely sourced from partners like Tupy. [1]
Would you like to compare the weight-to-power ratio of the X10 against the outgoing X12 or L9 models?

The Cummins X10 is designed to replace both the L9 and X12, effectively merging medium-duty weight with heavy-duty performance. By using a sculpted CGI block, it achieves a class-leading power-to-weight ratio for 2027.
Weight & Power Comparison
Feature | Cummins L9 | Cummins X10 (2027) | Cummins X12 |
|---|---|---|---|
Dry Weight | ~1,750 lbs | ~1,950 lbs | ~2,050 lbs |
Max Horsepower | 380 HP | 450 HP | 500 HP |
Max Torque | 1,250 lb-ft | 1,650 lb-ft | 1,700 lb-ft |
Engine Braking | Standard | 475 HP (HPD) | 390 HP |
Key Takeaways
Weight Savings: The X10 is roughly 100 lbs lighter than the X12. While it is about 160 lbs heavier than the L9, it offers a massive 32% increase in torque (1,650 vs 1,250 lb-ft).
Superior Braking: Despite its smaller displacement, the X10’s High Power Density (HPD) braking system provides 475 HP of retarding power, outperforming the larger X12's 390 HP.
Fuel Efficiency: The X10 is expected to be 4% more efficient than the L9 and 2% more efficient than the X12. [1, 2, 3, 4, 6]
The X10 essentially provides the "punch" of a 12-liter engine while keeping the weight close to a 9-liter package, making it ideal for payload-sensitive vocational trucks like mixers and waste haulers. [1, 2]
Would you like to see how the X10's maintenance intervals compare to the older L9 and X12 platforms?

But the recent 6.7 liter engine switched back from CGI to grey iron for easier machinging
Correct. You are touching on a specific "growing pain" in diesel manufacturing history. For the 6.7L Turbo Diesel, Cummins did indeed face a widely reported machining bottleneck when they first moved to CGI in 2019. [1]
While CGI is superior in strength, it is significantly harder and more "abrasive" on tooling than traditional grey iron. If a factory’s machining line (the CNC equipment that bores and mills the blocks) isn't fully upgraded with high-pressure coolant and specialized carbide tooling, CGI can dramatically slow down production speed. [1, 3, 4]
The 6.7L vs. The X10 Strategy
Here is why the X10 is still expected to move forward with CGI (sourced from Tupy) despite the issues seen on the smaller 6.7L:
Dedicated Production Lines: The 6.7L production at the Columbus Mid-Range Engine Plant (CMEP) had to handle massive volumes for Ram trucks. The X10 is a "clean-sheet" design for 2027, allowing Cummins and its partners like Tupy to build the production process around CGI from day one, rather than retrofitting an old grey-iron line.
Weight Sensitivity: In the heavy-duty vocational market (where the X10 lives), every pound matters for payload. The 100-lb weight savings offered by a sculpted CGI block is a major selling point that is less critical for a 3/4-ton pickup truck.
Emission Pressures: The 2027 standards require extremely high peak cylinder pressures to maximize efficiency. Grey iron blocks must be significantly thicker (and heavier) to survive those pressures over a million-mile lifecycle compared to CGI. [1, 2, 3, 4]
🛠️ Quick Comparison: Machining & Durability
Grey Cast Iron | Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI) | |
|---|---|---|
Machinability | High (easy on tools) | Low (requires specialized tooling) |
Tensile Strength | Baseline | ~75% Higher |
Weight | Heavier (thicker walls) | Lighter (thinner, stronger walls) |
Vibration Damping | Excellent | Good |
⚓ Key Fact: Reports suggest that while the 6.7L head remained cast iron, the block's transition back to grey iron for the 2025/2026 models was a strategic move to preserve manufacturing capacity rather than a failure of the material itself. [1, 3]
Are you asking because you're concerned about the long-term rebuildability of CGI blocks compared to the classic grey iron ones?

is the 6.7 going back to CGI
Actually, for the 2025+ models, the 6.7L Cummins has officially reverted to gray cast iron. [1, 2]
While CGI was used from 2019 to 2024 to save weight, Cummins and Ram confirmed that the move back to gray iron for the 2025/2026 generation was driven by a need for better manufacturing scalability and optimized cooling as they push for higher power and torque. [1]
Why the 6.7L left CGI behind
Machining Speed: Reverting to gray iron allowed Cummins to regain machining capacity that was lost due to the slower cutting speeds required for CGI.
Thermal Management: The 2025 redesign features completely new water jackets optimized for gray iron, providing better cooling for the increased 1,075 lb-ft torque rating.
Production Continuity: Cummins cited over 100 years of expertise with gray iron as a reason they could more easily leverage the material for long-term production and performance targets. [1, 2, 3]
Comparison: 2024 (CGI) vs. 2025+ (Gray Iron)
2019–2024 6.7L | 2025–2027 6.7L | |
|---|---|---|
Block Material | Compacted Graphite Iron (CGI) | Gray Cast Iron |
Cold Start | Grid Heater | Glow Plugs |
Max Torque | 1,075 lb-ft (HO only) | 1,075 lb-ft (Standard) |
Cylinder Head | Cast Iron | Redesigned Cast Iron |
Is the X10 different?
Yes. Unlike the 6.7L, which is a legacy platform being adapted, the X10 is a "clean-sheet" 2027 design. [1]
Payload Priority: The X10 is a vocational engine where a 100+ lb weight saving is a massive competitive advantage.
Modern Lines: Because the X10 production lines are being built or overhauled specifically for this launch, they can integrate the high-pressure cooling and specialized tooling required for CGI from the start, avoiding the bottlenecks that hit the 6.7L lines.
