ROTYX Oy
About us
He who digs a pit for others,
can now carry out the work more efficiently than ever before with ROTYX equipment.
Drawing its strength from customer-oriented thinking and strong local roots, ROTYX has quickly emerged as an international player with its innovative solution for tiltrotators. Founded in 2015, the company received a patent for its invention in December 2021, and growth has remained steady ever since. In 2025, Rotyx Oy’s turnover rose to nearly one million euros, with most devices delivered to Central Europe. Users have provided exceptionally positive feedback on both the performance of the equipment and the company’s way of working.
Tuomo Sihvo, who spent countless hours in an excavator cabin during his studies, came up with the idea for a tiltrotator solution that would not only be durable and powerful but also easy to use. Ease of operation and faster work cycles offer significant benefits to the operator. Product development and marketing professional Harri Qvintus joined to help refine the concept, and through him, machine shop entrepreneur Simo Toropainen and design-oriented product developer Asko Toropainen became part of the team. This formed a strong core group with all the expertise needed to turn the vision into reality
Following an extensive development process, the prototype phase led to the production of the zero series in early 2021. From this series, the Savonlinna-based contracting company A&K Ryynänen Oy acquired the first commercial ROTYX tiltrotator in the summer of the same year. Valuable user experience and development suggestions regarding operation and maintenance were received from entrepreneur Aleksi Ryynänen and excavator operator Anssi Mäkäläinen. Another significant milestone in 2021 was the appointment of Timo Huttunen from Lännen Tractors Oy to the company’s board, bringing with him extensive experience in the construction machinery sector.
