AGCO Advances Fuel Efficiency Across Its Fendt®, Massey Ferguson® and Valtra® Brands

AGCO has developed enhancements in fuel efficiency for its Fendt, Massey Ferguson, and Valtra brands through the integration of AGCO Power engines and driveline technology. These advancements have been verified by independent testing which shows reduced fuel use while maintaining optimal field performance. AGCO's innovations aim to support farmers in achieving more sustainable and cost-effective operations.

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.

Arch Systems brings full factory AI to FedRAMP High via Knox

Arch Systems brings full factory AI to FedRAMP High via Knox

Arch Systems' factory AI platform, including its Data Foundation and AI agents, can now run inside Knox Systems' FedRAMP High cloud for defense manufacturers. Controlled data can flow in. Arch previously served defense plants only at the edge, so buyers now need to vet Knox's shared-responsibility terms and how new AI agents enter the authorized boundary.

  • 01Arch has worked in defense plants for years, but only at the edge; the Knox deal opens the layer that ties machine data to MES and ERP records, and lets controlled data flow into it.
  • 02Knox’s FedRAMP High (Class D) boundary lets Arch run without its own standalone authorization, and Knox’s marketplace listing says hosted apps inherit a substantial portion of required security controls.
  • 03Before signing, ask how Knox's Shared Responsibility Matrix maps to a manufacturer rather than an agency, and how new AI agents get added inside a continuously monitored boundary.

Rockwell’s PanelView Pro targets HMI upgrades that keep FactoryTalk View ME apps

Rockwell’s PanelView Pro targets HMI upgrades that keep FactoryTalk View ME apps

Rockwell Automation's PanelView Pro, with availability beginning in the fourth quarter of calendar 2026, runs existing FactoryTalk View ME applications and shares cutouts with PanelView Plus 7 Performance terminals. For those sites, the HMI upgrade starts to look like a hardware swap. Separate display and logic modules also change how plants stock spares, and more configurations follow through 2027.

  • 01For a plant on PanelView Plus 7 Performance terminals, the pitch is that the panel cutout stays, the FactoryTalk View ME application stays, and future repairs happen one module at a time.
  • 02Plant standards for the new terminal are worth writing around what ships in Q4 2026, since additional modules and configurations keep arriving through 2027.
  • 03The easy migration path is a path to staying on Rockwell's FactoryTalk platform; plants already planning to leave FactoryTalk View ME won't see the reuse savings.

BMW's 1,700 new ABB robots share one controller in Munich and Tiexi

BMW's 1,700 new ABB robots share one controller in Munich and Tiexi

More than 1,700 ABB robots are going into BMW body shops in Munich and Tiexi, China, to weld, glue, rivet and assemble Neue Klasse car bodies, with every unit on ABB’s OmniCore controller. The order spans three models across two related families that share components and a common footprint, which ABB says supports flexible installation and changeouts. ABB’s "up to 20%" controller claim and "up to 30%" robot-family claim use different baselines and shouldn’t be treated as the same number.

  • 01ABB's up to 20% energy figure compares OmniCore with its predecessor controller. The up to 30% figure for the IRB 7710/7720 family already includes that controller regeneration, so the two shouldn't be added together in a business case.
  • 02For plants that move stations between payload classes, a shared footprint and standardized components across robot sizes belong on the spec sheet next to payload and reach.
