History

SEMT Pielstick was formed in 1988 when the business was acquired from GEC Alsthom by MAN and MTU, originally as a 50/50 partnership. MAN increased its shareholding in February 1998 and in December 2006 bought the remaining 33% of the shares held by MTU, thus making MAN the sole shareholder of SEMT Pielstick. The company has been renamed MAN DIESEL SA and trades under this name.

Since 2010, the company has been renamed MAN DIESEL & TURBO, following the Group's new name.

PIELSTICK parts & services are traded and manufactured by MAN Diesel & Turbo France and under the licensees' name, as it is an active company of the MAN group specializing in nuclear-power-plant emergency generators (PA6B N & PC2.6B 600 N) and in Naval propulsion (PA4 200 SMDS, PA6B STC, PC2.5 STC).
