Kohler entered the power systems market in the early 1920s and established a reputation for providing endurance under adverse conditions from the start. Admiral Richard E. Byrd took Kohler generators on his expeditions to the Antarctic. After World War II, the company developed lines of "stand alone" cast iron, four-cycle engines.
