Company description

Yanmar was founded in March 1912 in Osaka, Japan,^[2] by Magokichi Yamaoka.^[3]^[4]

When the company began in 1912, it manufactured gasoline-powered engines.^[5] In 1920 the company began production of a small kerosene engine.^[6] In 1933, it launched the world's first practical small diesel engine, the HB model.^[5]^[7]^[8]

In 1961 the agricultural machinery division of the company was started.^[9]

Yanmar also started supplying engines to John Deere tractors^[9] and for some Thermo King Corporation coolers used in refrigerated trucks and trailers.^[10] Within the last 20 years, Yanmar has also established a growing presence in the domestic unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) market in Japan and elsewhere, with small helicopter UAVs primarily used in agricultural spraying and other forms of aerial application.^[11]^[12]

As described on the company website, "The name [Yanmar] is a combination of the Yanma Dragonfly (known by names such as Oniyanma and Ginyanma) and the "Yama" from the name of the company founder Magokichi Yamaoka."^[13]
