USA – Engine retardation specialist, Jacobs Vehicle Systems of Bloomfield, Connecticut, has entered into a collaboration with internal combustion controls company, Tula Technology Inc of San Jose, California. They are to work together closely to enable Jacobs to further develop cylinder deactivation technologies which reduce engine fuel consumption and emissions.
Tula recently licensed its Dynamic Skip Fire (DSF) technology with major automotive OEM gasoline applications. The new working partnership between the two companies will utilise Tula’s DSF controls technology to support Jacobs’ expertise in diesel deactivation hardware development.
