MaxxForce® 11 - Big Bore: HPCR
A major key to MaxxForce Big Bore performance is its advanced fuel system, which features injection pressures of 2,200 bar (approximately 32,000 psi), for precise fuel dosing, injection timing and optimal combustion. The results: better fuel efficiency, quieter operation and in-cylinder reduction of emissions.
Goes The Extra Mile. Per Gallon.
MaxxForce Big Bore engines combine the most advanced engine technologies to deliver more torque and responsiveness at low rpm for outstanding fuel efficiency. A high-pressure common-rail fuel system, dual staged turbos, innovative heat-management system and low-friction design convert the highest percentage of your fuel into power you can use. And that adds up to low cost of ownership.
MaxxForce® 11 - Big Bore: Twin-Series Turbochargers
Dual Turbos and Advanced Air-Management
MaxxForce Big Bore engines use dual staged turbochargers to deliver powerful performance from stop light to mountaintop. The smaller, primary turbo responds quickly for immediate take-off at low engine speeds, and the larger, secondary turbo provides peak power at higher speeds and on steep grades. Peak torque is achieved at 1,000 rpm and holds steady to 1,200 rpm, a much lower engine speed than other big bore engines. This reduces gear-shifting needs uphill and allows for shifting at lower speeds when accelerating.
Big Power From Stop Sign to Ridgeline
One look at the MaxxForce Big Bore power curves tells the story. Dual staged turbos and a high-pressure injection system help deliver peak torque at 1,000 rpm versus typical 1,200 rpm for competitors. All the power you need, whenever and wherever you need it.
MaxxForce® 11 - Big Bore: CGI and Low Friction Design
Compacted-Graphite Iron Block
How can MaxxForce deliver outstanding fuel efficiency, emissions control without SCR, quiet operation and maximum durability? A key component is the Class 8 industry’s only CG Iron block. This incredibly strong platform handles the loads that deliver the best fuel combustion and damps vibration and noise. It carries the load without weighing you down.
Strong as a Rock. Light as a Feather.
Because CG Iron is so incredibly strong, castings don’t have to be as thick and heavy in order to achieve the desired durability required for heavy-duty diesel. This results in up to 500 pounds of weight savings over traditional big bore engines cast from gray iron — which can translate to greater payload and bigger payback.
Maximum Reliability and Durability
MaxxForce Big Bore engines are built on a block of compacted graphite iron, a material far stronger than conventional grey iron. CG Iron provides superior strength, less fatigue and years and years of reliable service.
Quietly Goes About Your Business
The advanced, ribbed CG Iron block and high-pressure multi-shot injection system combine to produce 30% lower noise inside the cab and much lower vibration for increased driver comfort. It’s also startlingly quiet outside, at idle and in action. The smooth, quiet ride of the MaxxForce Big Bore will take you by surprise. See and hear the difference at www.MaxxForceBigBore.com.
