RHEINTACHO UK, a member of the RHEINTACHO Group with its Headquarters in Freiburg, Germany, has been a specialist in instrumentation and measurement for over a hundred years now.

The UK based company is set up in Leeds and produces instruments and tachometers for measuring, monitoring and controlling rotational speed and linear movement. Its “Spares & Repairs” department is specialized in repairing or replacing instruments which have been in operation for a long time, whether on a machine or a vessel and are also able to reengineer products which can no longer be purchased. We also repair instruments from any company, even if they no longer are on the market.

RHEINTACHO UK is also responsible for trading all the products coming from its German parent company including digital tachometers, stroboscopes and most importantly sensors. The family of stroboscopes includes both LED and xenon strobes, although the trend shows the ever-increasing use of LED’s instead of xenon. The LED family has 4 different sizes of stationary strobe depending on the application and in the printing industry on the web width. The portable LED PocketStrobe comes in different versions with and without trigger and the newest addition has an automatic synchronization feature to quickly determine the speed of a moving object. The top of the line products, the qb LED strobes come with and without an auto-sync feature and are among the brightest worldwide. Typical applications are found in the printing and paper pulp industries, as well as in conveyors and application where rotational speed or linear movement must be measured, monitored or controlled.

The tachometer family includes both mechanical tachometers of which there is also an ATEX version as well as digital tachometers. There is also an extensive program of accessories for the tachometers for special applications such as in elevator maintenance, cable or yarn measurement and conveyor technology.

Since 2 years ago, RHEINTACHO’s English subsidiary has also been the ofłcial competence center within the group for all intrinsically safe (ATEX) products. This portfolio is growing strong offering the paper, printing and mining industries interesting products for measurement and maintenance operations. We have just completed the certiłcation of the complete portfolio of eddy current tachometers offering machine builders and equipment manufacturers safe solutions in hazardous environments.

The membership of RHEINTACHO in the Made in Yorkshire Organization has also become an integrated part of the business. We have not only won customers and suppliers but have created business for other members and have developed relationships where we can openly share experience and knowledge among the member companies. We are sure this membership will enhance business in the future as well. Through Made in Yorkshire, we have also hired our łrst apprentice in many years and Lucas will be combining his practical work with his studies at the Appris College over the next for years.

Rheintacho is your partner in the measurement of rotational speed.
