The modern Yaroslavl-made diesel engine YaMZ-536 guarantees reliable and long-term operation of vehicles for various purposes due to its technical characteristics, innovative design solutions, and innovative assembly technology.

Yaroslavl motors

Yaroslavl Motor Plant is one of the oldest machine-building enterprises in our country. The history of the enterprise begins in 1916. This year, engineer V. A. Lebedev organized the manufacture of cars in the city of Yaroslavl. In 1925, the plant changed its specialization and mastered the production of the first heavy trucks in the country with a carrying capacity of up to 7 tons.

In the fifties of the last century, the plant was redesigned for the production of diesel engines. Since this period, the production of diesel engines known in our country under the designation "YaMZ" with a capacity of 150 to 850 hp began. With. The most widely used engines of the YaMZ-236 model range; 238; 240.

The engines of the Yaroslavl plant were widely used, and as power units they were installed on various models of cars,tractors, road machines, excavators and other various equipment.

At present, YaMZ is the largest domestic complex for the development and production of multifunctional diesel power units, as well as gearboxes, clutches and spare parts. Almost 300 models of various equipment, manufactured not only in Russia, but also in Belarus, are equipped with motors manufactured by the enterprise.

YAMZ-536 engine

Yaroslavl diesel power unit under the designation 536 is included in the line of new engines developed and put into production in 2012. The YaMZ-536 engine is designed for installation on Russian-made buses.

After the successful use of diesel on LiAZ buses, the engine began to be installed on all-wheel drive vehicles of the Ural brand. At the same time, the high traction and technical characteristics of the YaMZ-536 engine made it possible to use the engine on Ural vehicles of various modifications, both with a 4 x 4 wheel arrangement and on more powerful ones with a 6 x 6 drive. The next company that began to install the YaMZ-536 diesel engine on its cars, the Belarusian enterprise MAZ became. Taking into account the increase in demand for the 536 engine, the company has prepared various modifications, which made it possible to expand the engine power range from 240.0 to 312.0 hp. With. The next step in the modernization of the engine was the development of a gas version under the index CNG.

Reviews on the power unit

Despite the short life of the YaMZ-536 engine, reviews from use on various vehicles, the motor has already received a large number of opinions on the application from drivers and owners of cars that are equipped with this power unit. When summarizing the information presented, the following main conclusions about the diesel 536 can be distinguished:

• cars equipped with YaMZ-536 are cheaper than foreign analogues and therefore have stable demand;
• increased traction properties of the engine, which at the same time improves vehicle handling;
• smoothness of the car, which is achieved through improved traction;
• small vibration for diesel engine;
• reduced motor noise level;
• increased warranty mileage up to 40,000km;
• increased to 1.0 million km engine running life;
• lower operating costs by reducing fuel consumption;
• quality filter YaMZ-536;
• Euro-4 environmental compliance;
• reduced dimensions and weight compared to foreign in-line engines allow to increase the carrying capacity of the car;
• affordable price.

All the positive qualities of the motor noted in the reviews indicate that the YaMZ-536 engine is a successful development of the Yaroslavl Motor Plant.
