MTU supplies various Mercedes-Benz industrial engines - OM models of the series 900, 500 and 457 - to the C&I equipment OEM worldwide.

These Mercedes-Benz industrial engines which have been adapted by MTU, have seen a sharp rise in the sales and market volume both in Asia and Australia.

The high demand for MTU-powered vehicles such as the power drive units for mining and agricultural vehicles in Australia, and the wheeled loaders in Japan, have played a significant role in that development.

With the sustained building boom in China, mobile cranes which are mainly deployed for the construction industries are also in great demand.

Depending on the load lifting capacity, the bigger of the cranes require two engines, one for the lower deck to drive the vehicle and one at the upper deck solely for swing and lift operations.
