Engines
Deutz engines are available in the power range of 5 to 500 kW, with air, oil or water cooling and with life expectancy of 20,000 to 30,000 running hours TBO (Time Between Overhauling) on rebuilt and brand-new units.
Parts and services are available worldwide. A network of distributors in the United States and Canada was established.
Deutz-powered air-cooled engines are well-suited for many applications since they cannot freeze or boil over during normal operation.
Deutz also manufactures oil-cooled engines. These can provide the same power as other engine designs, but in a smaller package, since they do not require the additional space to house a radiator. Deutz also makes engines with a tandem oil cooler/radiator configuration; these also do not require antifreeze or coolant agents.
Deutz also sells a line of economic liquid-cooled engines.
In 2007, the Deutz Power Systems division was sold to 3i, and Deutz AG now concentrates on producing and selling compact engines under the Deutz brand only. They focus on manufacturing engines only for the customer, without competing for the entire piece of finished machinery.
On October 1, 2008, the former Deutz Power Systems division received a new former name MWM (Motoren Werke Mannheim AG). Karl Benz established the company in 1871. After splitting the engine business from Benz AG, it became Motoren-Werke Mannheim AG. Klöckner-Humboldt-Deutz AG took over in 1985, later becoming Deutz AG. After spinning off Deutz Power Systems, the company has made a full circle back to MWM.[13]
In 2012, SAME Deutz-Fahr sold 22 million shares, the majority of its holding in Deutz AG, to Volvo, making it the largest shareholder at just over 25%. SAME Deutz-Fahr retained 8.4% equity in the company.[14]
In 2017, Deutz acquired Torqeedo[15] GmbH, a specialist in integrated electric and hybrid drives for boats. Volvo sold all of its ownership stakes in Deutz the same year.[16]
In August 2024, Deutz acquired the sales and service activities of Rolls-Royce Power Systems' off-highway engine division.[17]
