EPOC Engine Layout

EcoMotors International has developed the OPOC engine - opposed-piston opposed-cylinder engine.  This engine can run on a number of fuels and is lighter in weight and produces more power than a conventional engine.

The basic engine "unit" has 2 pistons per cylinder and multiple "units" can be coupled for a more powerful engine - or one or more "units" can be turned off at idle or during highway speeds.

" ... ground-breaking internal combustion engine ... eliminates the cylinder-head and valve-train components ... lighter, more efficient and economical, with lower exhaust emissions compared with conventional designs...."
