OM457 Engine Technical Data
In April 1993 Mercedes-Benz AG and Detroit Diesel Corporation (DDC) concluded agreements to develop a diesel engine for heavy trucks and buses. The OM457 LA engine is a turbocharged 12-litre in-line six-cylinder that features four-valves-per-cylinder technology and an electronically controlled injection system with unit pumps.
The engine is water-cooled, and is produced using cast-iron cylinder block, with removable wet type cylinder liners. The engine utilizes diesel fuel direct injection from individual electronically controlled and camshaft actuated unit pumps. The cylinder heads are separate units for each cylinder.
The crankshaft is a precision forged running on seven three-layer bearings with counterweights bolted onto the crank webs. The middle bearing is also the thrust bearing and connecting rods are of a split design, with bronze bushings for the piston pins.
