Engines are the central to the working of any automotive equipment, that has, during the recent years seen significant growth and process mainly due to manufacturing excellence and technological sophistication. Not all companies have been able to embrace technology and expertise like the way Cooper has done. The company is into the designing, manufacturing and supply of engines in the diesel engine and gas engine segment to several automotive companies..While the diesel engine is most popularly used for varied purposes, the recent trends suggest the growth in use of gas engine of varied capacity ranging from 9 hp engines, 15 hp engines to 400 hp engines. Having said this, the gas engine segment is likely to grow at a rate of CAGR of 2.6%. Engine manufacturing companies like Cooper Corporation have been instrumental in chalking out the growth story in this segment by being able to successfully integrate technology into manufacturing.
Always on the forefront of contemporary technology
Cooper Corporation has a manufacturing legacy of over five decades, and is today an established name when it comes to the designing, manufacturing and distribution of engines through a well-established network nationally as well as globally.The key customers include renowned automobile companies and other Original Equipment Manufacturers or OEMs Cooper Corporation manufactures 1-,2-,3-,4-, and 6-cylinder engines in diesel engine and gas engine segments with CNG, LPG variants. These engines are available in varying capacity ranging from 9 hp engines to even as high as 400 hp engines.
Designing of engines-crucial step in manufacturing
Designing of engines is often a long-drawn process that can take up to 3 years to design and get it executed. The right technical collaboration such as the one Cooper has signed with Ricardo, UK has proved to be beneficial in terms of innovation and bringing in the efficiency in the performance of engines
From the stage of manufacturing to the penultimate stage of distribution
The technical collaboration of Cooper with Ricardo has seen the launch of over 52 models of engines within a span of six years. An engine comprises of over 700 parts and a number of engine components are manufactured at the Cooper foundry itself.These include cylinder liners, cylinder sleeves, crankshafts, pistons, flywheel etc. The purpose and the application are well thought of when it comes to the manufacturing of specific engines. Besides, there are a whole lot of regulatory compliances that are to be adhered with and taken care of before getting these engines into the market.
We go on to say that, the design and manufacturing of engines have a lot to do with proving the efficiency and effectiveness of the automobile component as a wholeCooper engines are hence used or a wide range of applications and purposes including marine, automotive, defence, construction, infrastructure etc.
Compliance with emission norms of respective countries
Cooper Corporation has always been on the forefront of contemporary technology when it comes to the manufacturing of engines of ranging capacity between 9 hp engines, 15 hp engines or even 400 hp engines-all of which are manufactured at the Cooper facility situated in Satara and spread over 11 plants, 4 foundries and 1 engine facility. The company believes that from a short-term and medium-term perspective, diesel engines will be replaced by CNG, LPG and solar energy, gas engines will find application in hybrid vehicles. As a renowned manufacturer of both diesel engine and gas engine, Cooper has now launched a full range of engines in the medium and small powered engines. For these reasons and more and for the fact that the company has embraced contemporary technology in a big way, Cooper has been awarded with Jaguar Land Rover Award for Quality Excellence.
Having said this, Cooper engines are certified by the emission and regulatory authorities of every respective countries and has necessary certifications such as USEPA, Euro IV and CPCB II in case of India.With a strong distribution network, exports to the countries is a cinch and sales in India is ever growing.
