AGCO (NYSE: AGCO) is advancing fuel saving technologies that help farmers reduce operating costs while maintaining performance, reliability and uptime during critical fieldwork, with results reflected in independent DLG (Deutsche Landwirtschafts-Gesellschaft) PowerMix testing. Those gains are being delivered across the company's Fendt®, Massey Ferguson® and Valtra® brands, supported by engine development and integrated powertrain solutions from AGCO Power™, the company's power solutions division that designs and manufactures engines and related systems.

"For farmers, fuel efficiency is about lowering operating costs without sacrificing the performance and reliability they need during critical fieldwork," said Kari Aaltonen, Director, Engineering, AGCO Power. "Across our brands, AGCO Power focuses on engineering engines and integrated powertrains that deliver measurable efficiency gains in real working conditions."

In Fendt's latest tractor platforms, the AGCO Power CORE engine family is a central part of the powertrain lineup. CORE engines are in use in several of the brand's Vario series tractors, including the CORE50 in the Fendt 600 Vario series and the CORE75 in the Fendt 700 Vario Gen7 series. Independent testing of the Fendt 700 Vario series, with its CVT transmission, demonstrated strong fuel efficiency performance across both field and transport applications, reinforcing Fendt's focus on delivering efficient power in high-horsepower tractors.

Massey Ferguson also uses AGCO Power engines in its current product lineup, and the impact is demonstrated in independent tests. In recent DLG PowerMix testing, the Massey Ferguson 8S.265 Xtra Dyna E-Power™ placed first overall for fieldwork in its category. The results highlight how AGCO Power engine integration, combined with Massey Ferguson transmission and tractor design choices, delivers measurable efficiency outcomes in real, world operating scenarios.

Across Valtra's tractor range, AGCO Power engines serve as the long-standing power source, paired with efficiency-focused operating concepts integrated into the overall driveline. Valtra's EcoPower™ operating philosophy focuses on maintaining high torque at lower engine speeds, supporting lower fuel consumption across typical field and transport applications, an approach reflected in DLG PowerMix results and other independent comparison testing cited by the brand. Valtra also uses a selective catalytic reduction (SCR) system to enable efficient combustion, contributing to improved fuel consumption compared with previous engine generations.

AGCO's Fendt, Massey Ferguson and Valtra brands are seeing measurable fuel efficiency gains through the combination of AGCO Power's proven engine technology and brand-specific tractor and powertrain integration. For farmers, that means lower fuel costs without sacrificing the performance and reliability demanded in real-world work.

Lockheed Martin and Xaba cite 10x gain in robot drilling accuracy with xCognition

Lockheed Martin and Xaba cite 10x gain in robot drilling accuracy with xCognition

Lockheed Martin and Xaba reported that adding Xaba’s xCognition controller to an industrial robot improved drilling accuracy and consistency by 10x. The claim is tied to a two-phase evaluation that included drilling tests on an aluminum plate with specified positional tolerances. The result points to how robotics augmented with xCognition could take on operations typically kept on more expensive and less flexible CNC machines.

  • 01Lockheed Martin and Xaba reported a 10x accuracy-and-consistency improvement tied to a two-phase test that included drilling on an aluminum plate with specified positional tolerances.
  • 02If the goal is moving selected drilling or light machining off CNC, the first gating item is whether the controller enables path-mode accuracy under tolerance, not whether the robot can detect parts.
  • 03Moruzzi’s observation that most AI research emphasis is still on computer vision is a reminder to separate “perception AI” from “process AI” when writing automation requirements and budgets.

FFRA’s California film recycling pilots run through Nov. 30 to track warehouse wrap recovery

FFRA’s California film recycling pilots run through Nov. 30 to track warehouse wrap recovery

The Flexible Film Recycling Alliance has started two commercial plastic film recycling pilots in California, running July 1 through Nov. 30. The programs test two collection models, one using 1-800-GOT-JUNK? routes and one using Shorr Packaging’s warehouse logistics. For operators, the near-term value is a measurable playbook for separating and aggregating clean polyethylene film at scale.

  • 01FFRA’s premise is that commercial polyethylene film is relatively clean and single-material; the pilots test whether collection and aggregation logistics can capture it at scale.
  • 02The pilots’ biggest enterprise signal is standardization: FFRA is using the same Rack n’ Pack collection setup across regions so results can be compared apples-to-apples.
  • 03With recent U.S. film-recycling capacity disruptions cited by Waste360, end-market certainty and contracted offtake terms will matter as much as collection participation.
