Since 1932, Perkins have been manufacturers of diesel engines for agricultural, marine and construction vehicles as well as diesel engines for power generators. The company was established at Peterborough by engineer Frank Perkins (1889-1967) who provided the business acumen and Charles Chapman (1897-1979), who as the main engineer provided the technical expertise. From the outset F. Perkins Ltd sought to develop more efficient, lighter weight and faster diesel engines. To promote their new engines, they built demonstration racing cars powered by Perkins diesel engines which during the 1930’s broke land speed records for diesel powered cars. In 1968, Perkins purchased L. Gardener & Sons Ltd who were a manufacturer of diesel engines for commercial, marine and military vehicles. Today, Perkins is a subsidiary of Caterpillar Inc and continues to manufacture diesel engines.
This promotional badge for Perkin’s diesel engines depicts the company’s emblem.

In exhaust gas recirculation, some of the exhaust gas is returned to the fresh air intake. The resultant mixture of fresh air and exhaust gas has a lower calorific value in terms of the volume. This lowers combustion chamber temperatures, thus reducing the production of nitrogen oxide (NOx).
