Tuff Torq Corporation, a group company of Yanmar Holdings Co., Ltd., has celebrated the opening of a new expansion of its existing production facilities. The expansion adds approximately 20,000 square feet to the current building and will be utilized to meet demand for Tuff Torq’s TZ series transaxle production, as well as forging the way for the company’s new eDS (electric) product line.
Tuff Torq’s factory expansion adds a new zero-turn transaxle (TZ series) production line to meet near-term production demand, and provides space to add an additional line in the future. New technology will be utilized to improve efficiency by reducing major sources of downtime on the new TZ line.
In addition to meeting current production demand, the expanded production facilities will also serve to launch Tuff Torq’s new electric drive systems (eDS). This production is scheduled to begin in 2023, positioning Tuff Torq Corporation to provide options for our customers in every sector of the lawn and garden market.
Tuff Torq Corporation, established in 1989, develops, manufactures, and sells hydro-static transaxle drive systems for industrial machinery such as ride-on lawn and garden tractors, off-road UTVs, construction equipment, as well as marine gears.
