Ford Super Duty customers expect and demand the best-selling capabilities that heavy trucks in America. For most of Super Duty owners of the major assets of their business. Day after day, year after year, is expected to achieve results in the most demanding situations. Nonsense. And never for any reason."Our job super customers do some of the most difficult jobs in America," said Mark Fields, Ford's president for the Americas "Every day. They have worked quietly and all they ask is a tool for the job. The 2011 Ford Super Duty offers them a trucks with the best in class towing and payload, new capacity and powertrain even more than before to help them their work. "
Ford F-Series is the best-selling line of trucks in the United States for 32 consecutive years. The new Ford Super Duty further underscores Built Ford Tough heritage."The 2011 Ford Super Duty offers the broadest range of solutions for the widest range of heavy work truck customers," said Chris Brewer, chief engineer "Super Duty line offers a variety of body styles and groups. Hard trains, diesel and gasoline engines, each with a transmission The new six-speed for vans and chassis cabs, each with towing and payload capacities that define Super Duty. "
New diesel and petrol engines deliver better torque, power, fuel economy
For 2011, Super Duty features both new diesel and gasoline engine paired with new transmissions. The new diesel engine, 7.6-liter Power Stroke V-8 turbocharged diesel engine designed, developed and built by the Ford team dedicated solely to providing first-class diesel engines, in addition to the obligation to continue to allow generation of the best in the super-class towing and payload.
Benefits of the machine 6.7 liter power stroke diesel engine new:
The first use of a compacted graphite iron engine block (CGI) in the segment-Super Duty in North America CGI is stronger than cast iron, and Ford has successfully used the material in the engine block on products worldwide. Block structure has been optimized to reduce weight and maximum strength to meet the demands of higher torque and more power and allow first-class fuel economy.
Unique architecture outboard intake and exhaust side, the first automotive industry for the production of modern diesel, reducing the overall volume of the exhaust system, which produces better throttle response, a local exhaust system reduces the surface area minimizes heat transfer into the engine compartment and increase NVH (noise , vibration and harshness).
Turbochargers have the wheels of industry-first two-sided compressor that works in one box. This unit is centrally mounted on a low pedestal in the back of the valley for improved NVH. This design allows the unit to deliver the benefits of the twin-turbo in a small package that is more efficient, combining the advantages of a small turbocharger (faster response) and a large turbocharger (ability to compress and force more air into the engine for more power) in one unit.
Fuel system injects high pressure fuel to more than 29,000 psi. This system delivers up to five injection events per cylinder per cycle using eight-hole piezo injectors to spray fuel into the piston bowl. Direct injection system is calibrated and phased for optimum power, efficiency and NVH.
Aluminum cylinder head to reduce weight, mid-deck construction with dual water jackets provides increased strength and optimal cooling, six head bolts instead of four found on other machines, improve sealing and maintain the integrity of the cylinder, even with higher pressure shots.
Compatible up to B20, for environmental solutions to power up to 20 percent biodiesel and 80 percent petroleum diesel.
"Developing a 7.6-liter Power Stroke V-8 turbocharged diesel engine is a tremendous effort," said Adam Gryglak, led the 6.7-liter diesel engineering manager. "After all the engineering and testing, we believe that this machine is to ensure the new Super Duty continue its leadership in capacity, reliability and productivity."
Engine and exhaust after treatment for the Power Stroke 6.7-liter supercharged V-8 Diesel Powertrain with the ability to meet, new requirements are more stringent 2010 federal emissions of nitrogen oxides (NOx), which should decrease about 80 percent.
The new petrol engine offers more torque than the outgoing model,
Ford tapped into some of the proud racing heritage to create a 6.2-liter V-8 gasoline engine, which uses a large-bore architecture to produce horsepower and fuel economy to first class. V-8 big bore (102 mm) allows the intake valves and exhaust ports are larger for improved engine breathing and short stroke (95 mm) allows higher engine speeds for increased power.
Benefits of the engine 6.2-liter V-8 gasoline include:
SOHC valvetrain with roller rocker shafts: The single overhead camshaft (SOHC) per cylinder head design results in a stiff valve train that allows the cam lift profile optimized and generates a large torque at low speeds. The axis of the roller rocker valve angle can be removed, resulting from the layout optimized intake and exhaust ports for better breathing.
Double-equal variable cam timing: intake and exhaust valve opening and closing gradually in the same time to optimize fuel economy and performance over the entire range of engine speed and accelerator position.
Two spark plugs per cylinder: Due to the size of large caliber, two spark plugs per cylinder are used to more efficiently burn the fuel-air mixture in the combustion chamber, allowing fuel savings better and increased engine torque. Twin spark plugs also help the engine maintain, smooth stable idle.
Dual knock sensors: A sensor knock each cylinder bank of the V-8 engine allows the ignition of each cylinder individually optimized in real time, the entire engine speed range. Optimal time machine learning through adaptive algorithms.
Carter's best engine "breathing" and efficiency: Significant development work and computer-aided engineering optimized the cylinder block for more efficient airflow into the crankcase as the piston moves up and down in the hole, thus increasing torque at higher engine speeds. Piston-cooling jets spray oil on the bottom of the piston to keep the piston crowns cool under extreme operating conditions. Jet cooling also allows a higher compression ratio to increase engine efficiency and engine oil warm up faster on cold start, improved fuel economy.
The new harness and manage power transmission TorqShift; immediately available drive PTO
All-new six-speed 6R140 automatic TorqShift weight is designed to handle high torque at low speeds generated by the new diesel engines. The same basic transmission coupled to a new gasoline engine, providing customers with the two machines the ability to get the effective torque and more power to the ground. Designed for efficiency and fuel economy, improvements include refined architecture to provide a relatively low speed coupling, resulting in lower drag losses, and fluid levels and optimized to reduce drainback rotating fluids while providing superior lubricity.
In addition to hardware-based improvements, new features and enhanced transmission Tow Haul with integrated exhaust and engine braking capacity automatically SelectShift, including a variety of progressive select and manual mode, allowing customers to choose a report tailored to their needs.
TorqShift new transmission also enables the first application of Live Hard PTO (Power Take Off) in the category of super-vehicle task. 2011 Ford Super Duty Diesel with preparation option PTO, the PTO output gear is bound by the torque converter to the engine crankshaft. This allows the transmission to power additional equipment such as snow shovels, air lifts, tow truck lifts, cement mixers and dump trucks. Power available at any time the engine is running.
Launched in agricultural applications, direct drive function is very useful when mobile PTO function is required during the operation to start and stop, such as salting or snow removal. "A fully functional Living Mobile PTO Hard Super Duty will allow customers to take full advantage of the equipment on their trucks," said Al Bruck, 6R140 transmission of technical director.
