BorgWarner's (BWA) Advance R2S Technology Raises Performance
Zacks Investment Research | Oct 19, 2017 07:48AM ET
BorgWarner Inc. (NYSE:BWA) is coming up with regulated two-stage (R2S) turbocharger for the 2.9-liter six-cylinder diesel engine OM 656 of Daimler. This latest turbocharging technology improves engine performance and offers better fuel economy. Also, the R2S technology lowers emission level and improves exhaust gas recirculation rates.
Michigan-based BorgWarner is a leading manufacturer of powertrain products for major automakers. Its products include four-wheel-drive and all-wheel-drive transfer cases (primarily for light trucks and sport utility vehicles or SUVs), as well as automatic transmission and timing chain systems.
The latest product is the first R2S turbocharger in the market which features a turbine housing made of strong cast steel. Water-cooled e-actuator, compressor housing and bearing housing are also embedded in the R2S turbocharger. Two turbochargers — a compact high-pressure exhaust gas and a larger waste-gated low-pressure one with ported shroud compressor — are fixed into it. This aids the turbocharging technology to quickly adapt to changing situations.
Over the past six months, shares of BorgWarner have marginally outperformed the Zacks Investment Research
