Adriadiesel manufactures its own auxiliary engine under its own license and design. The name of this engine is "Adria 40". In addition to production, it also sells spare parts and service services on its own engines. Adria 40 meets all the necessary standards and so far has proven to be a product you can rely on.
On this day back in 1988, the company Jugoturbina delivered one of its engines under the designation 12 ZV 40/48 for the needs of the customer "Atomenergoexport Moscow". The company still exists today under the name Adriadiesl and continues to be successfully engaged in the production of auxiliary engines.
After the production of the first SULZER 12 ZV 40/48 engine in 1976, production started on an upward trajectory, and by the end of 1977, two more SULZER auxiliary engines with the designation 12 ZV 40/48 were produced. Production under the SULZER license has continued for many years and Adriadiesel is still one of the leading suppliers of spare parts for engine repairs.
Back in 1976, the first auxiliary engine under the SULZER license with the designation 12 ZV 40/48 was produced in Croatia, more precisely in the city on four rivers Karlovac, and in Karlovac there is still a company named Adriadiesel which is in charge of maintenance and supply of spare parts of that engine as well as all manufactured after it.
"The Edvard Kardelj factory from Karlovac produces seven-horsepower DMT diesel engines outside its production program. Agricultural and fishing cooperatives have a 40 percent discount on the sale price."
"Vijesnik", May 30, 1952.
Jugoturbina worked to satisfy its employees not only through working conditions but also to improve the living standards of all its employees and other citizens of Karlovac. Thus, during the years of its business, Jugoturbina organized various excursions and gatherings (Dance on Plitvice), opened a workers 'resort in Punat on Krlo, built a children's playground on Švarča, and organized workers' sports games in Karlovac.
