Market Overview

Corporate Objectives and Strategies/Prospects

REVETEC Limited’s markets are extensive, our product is very adaptable to these markets with minor changes, low R&D costs and a short development time frame.

Our major markets are as follows:

  • Pumps in Australia and Internationally,

  • Power generation in Australia and Internationally,

  • Ultra-light aviation in Australia and Internationally,

  • Marine in Australia and Internationally,

  • Motor cycles Internationally and,

  • Motor Vehicles in Australia and Internationally.

Potential Markets

Motor Vehicles

The most significant market is motor vehicles. The CCE will revolutionise the automotive industry by allowing sleeker designs and more compact powerplants. The increased control over combustion will lead the way in lower emissions and increased fuel efficiency. International governments are tightening emission laws which place REVETEC in a very good market position.

The compact design is also favourable with Electric/Petrol hybrid vehicles, where performance and compactness is an issue.

Motorcycles

The CCE advantages in motor cycles are similar to other target markets, for e.g. light, compact and good power to weight ratio. The CCE is around half the height of current engines.

Currently, REVETEC and Rewaco are working together to develop the Revetec engine to fit into the Rewaco series of Trikes. REVETEC is considering several supply options at the moment, including manufacturing in Australia and/or in the USA. REVETEC and Rewaco are working closely together to test a Trike with a REVETEC engine. Rewaco's Chairman stated that he is committed to using our CCE engine exclusively in all Rewaco products.

Marine

Due to the CCE’s compactness and lightness it is also suited to marine use. Whether the CCE technology is used in small craft in the form of an outboard or it is applied to larger ships, the CCE provides a more compact and light engine which increases available payload space. The CCE is also easily converted to run in reverse for multi-engined applications.

Aviation (Small and Ultralight)

Due to the CCE‘s compactness and lightness it is perfectly suited to ultra-light and small aviation use. A major requirement for aviation is to have good power to weight ratio. Also, feedback from ultra-light aircraft engineers states that a slower shaft speed while retaining good torque is more beneficial than what is currently being used.

CCE can achieve the desired characteristics. Utilising the hollow shaft arrangement allows easy control of blade pitch via the centre of the shaft if required, reducing external componentary, or for the utilisation of a counter-rotating propeller.

Power Generation

Reducing size and weight of existing reciprocating engines allows a more portable and space saving unit to be manufactured. Changing the internal dimensions of the CCE allows the desired RPM to be achieved to suit the application efficiently. Of course a more efficient engine is greatly desirable in this market.

Pumps (Peristaltic)

The CCE has the advantage of allowing a hollow output shaft and is also able to be mounted with the output shaft being vertical, which opens up specialised applications and markets such as replacing the diesel engine in peristaltic pumps. Currently, engines drive these hollow shafted pumps in the way of a 90 degree bevel gear drive.
The engines are mounted on a frame driving the pump via a drift shaft. This poses a problem of torque twisting and vibration and also being bulky in design. The CCE design eliminates these problems.
