While the world focuses on the future of power, one significant trend focuses on getting the most value out of existing machinery: factory remanufacturing of engines and powertrain components. At AGCO Power, this process has been perfected over decades. Over the past ten years, remanufacturing has grown into a strategic megatrend that combines responsible material use with the demanding economic requirements of modern agriculture and forestry.
In our latest video, Jussi Rinne, Director of Quality & Aftermarket at AGCO Power, explains how remanufacturing bridges the gap between high-performance engineering and a circular economy.
Circular economy in action: 80% reuse of materials
Giving a second life to existing components with factory remanufacturing is both economical and environmentally sound. It extends the machine lifetime while reducing the need of raw materials.
- Significant carbon footprint reduction: Compared to manufacturing a completely new engine, the remanufacturing process generates a much lower carbon footprint.
- Material efficiency: We are able to reuse approximately 80 % of the mass of the engine.
Uncompromising quality and higher TVO
For an OEM or a machine owner, the decision to choose a remanufactured engine is not just an environmental choice – it is a calculated business decision. One of the key benefits is the impact on the Total Value of Ownership (TVO).
- Cost-effectiveness: Reusing raw materials allows us to offer the engine at a lower price point without compromising performance.
- Factory-backed confidence: You cannot spot a difference between a remanufactured and a new component. Every unit is backed by a full factory warranty.
A win-win for the industry
Remanufacturing has been part of AGCO Power’s DNA since the 1970s, but its importance has accelerated in recent years. As the industry moves towards more sustainable practices, remanufacturing offers a proven path to combine high-quality engineering with the principles of a circular economy.
In the end, everybody wins: the environment, the machine owner, and the future of the industry.
