Subaru Industrial Power Products
Encyclopedia
Subaru Industrial Power Products is a manufacturer of commercial-grade engines, portable generators and de-watering construction pumps. The company’s United States headquarters is located in Lake Zurich, IL. Subaru industrial engines, sold worldwide, are manufactured by Fuji Heavy Industries
(FHI) in North America and Japan. Subaru’s annual engine production exceeds one million and it is the fourth largest engine manufacturer in the world.
Subaru is the Japanese name for the Pleiades star cluster, which in turn inspires the Subaru logo and alludes to the six companies that merged to create FHI.
FHI is the parent company of Subaru Robin Industrial Engines. A multi-billion dollar corporation, FHI includes four main divisions: Automobile, Aerospace, Eco Technologies and Industrial Products. Advanced engineering, high technical expertise and state-of-the-art robotic manufacturing are hallmarks of Fuji, which proactively shares technology between divisions in order to stay on the cutting edge.
series. A standard for high-performance automotive engines, chain-driven OHC technology allows the intake and exhaust valves to be positioned for optimum engine performance. This offers lower resistance for the air/fuel mixture flow. With fewer moving parts, OHC engines produce less mechanical noise than competitive technologies and offer better cooling performance to combat overheating.
It’s also believed that Subaru is the first company to utilize electronic fuel injection (EFI) technology in a mass-produced, single-cylinder recoil-start industrial engine.

About the company and FHI
Subaru Industrial Power Products have been sold worldwide for more than 40 years. The engines were previously marketed under the Wisconsin Robin brand in North America under an agreement with Teledyne Total Power. Subaru engines now bear the corporate name to better reflect the technology and innovation shared between the industrial products division and sister automotive company. The products are still recognizable under both the Subaru-Robin and Robin brand names.Subaru is the Japanese name for the Pleiades star cluster, which in turn inspires the Subaru logo and alludes to the six companies that merged to create FHI.
