PERKINS recently celebrated a major milestone with the production of its 20 millionth engine. Eighty-one years after the brand was established, the 20 millionth Perkins engine, a 1206 two-stage turbo Tier 4 diesel engine, rolled off the production line at the company's facility in Peterborough, UK. At a small ceremony to mark the occasion, Perkins President Ramin Younessi said, "Twenty million engines is a significant achievement. Today, Perkins is one of the world's leading suppliers of off-highway diesel and gas engines in the industry. Our engines are manufactured across four continents and power more than 800 different applications in the construction, power generation, agriculture, material handling, industrial and marine markets."
