“Rehlko engines are designed to integrate easily with the base machines, and their compactness makes them easy to mount onto the chassis. Plus, their modular design enables quick accessibility for servicing," said Alok Kumar, Associate Director-Sales & Service.
He informed that Kohler, which earlier held a majority stake in its energy business since the 1920s, had sold the business to US-based Platinum Equity, which renamed it Rehlko.
Rehlko's indirect injection engines are designed for minimum vibration. The mounting pads, fitted with the base of the engines, arrests vibrations and noise, which Kumar claimed is less than the defined global engine standards.
Rehlko’s 5-25 hp engines are made at the company’s Aurangabad facility, while engines with higher ratings are imported from its Italian facility. “We work on the business-to-business model, under which we supply the engines directly to our customers, who also take care of their maintenance and servicing. The customers’ service personnel are trained by us for the maintenance of their engines,” informed Kumar.
