(COLUMBUS) - Columbus-based Cummins broke ground today in China on what is the company’s first fuel systems plant outside of North America.

Cummins Fuel Systems-Wuhan will be the 13th production facility for the company in China. Cummins says Wuhan is also home to its regional service center and a technical center.

The new 10-million dollar plant is expected to begin production early next year.

Cummins Fuel Systems designs and manufactures new and replacement fuel systems primarily for heavy-duty on-highway diesel engine applications.

Much of the current production goes to the company's engine business, with Scania being Cummins' primary outside customer.

Cummins currently designs and machines fuel systems in Columbus and has an assembly operation in Juarez, Mexico.
