About MTT

Led by Ted McIntyre II, C.E.O. and president, MTT is made up of the world's most experienced professionals in the turbine engine industry. Having completed more diverse, custom turbine engine installations than any other company in the world, we utilize the most current production technology.

Located in south Louisiana, our 36,500-sq. ft. facility houses MTT's corporate offices and manufacturing, including engine refurbishing, tooling, fabrication and machining, welding and production, carbon fiber molding, painting and finishing, electrical and mechanical engineering, computer aided drafting, digital control design center, dynamometer testing, turbine rotor balance, and all other production needs. MTT upholds quality control by handling all aspects of production from start to finish, resulting in shorter lead times and quick turn around.
 


To that end, in 2007 MTT bought an existing machine shop and integrated it into their Louisiana facility.  This addition provides 100% in-house capability with an array of equipment, including CNC machine centers, CNC lathe, CNC mill, gear hobs, shapers, water-jet, shears, metal saws, presses, grinders and numerous other manual and automated machines.



New Houston Division

MTT is pleased to announce the addition of its new Houston division. The Houston facility will house a field service and spare parts depot, turbine repair center, sales administration offices, and a customer support team. The Houston facility will also feature a showroom for many of MTT’s products. 


Turbine Engine Dominance

Turbine engines have a power-to-weight ratio that is without equal. For example, the turbine used in the MTT Turbine SUPERBIKE™ produces 320-hp and 425-ft/lbs of torque yet weighs only 135-lbs. The power rating of this small engine equals that of a Powerstroke™ diesel used in heavy-duty Ford® trucks. In the case of MTT's 8000-gpm fire pump unit, its 1400-hp engine weighs approximately 550-lbs compared to its diesel counterpart weighing between 8,000 and 10,000-lbs.

A smaller powerhouse translates to a smaller footprint with less deck space required in a typical pump installation on a boat or platform. Weight and space efficiency are always factors in marine installations, and turbines are unparalleled in this regard.

Turbines are also extremely fuel tolerant. They prefer diesel, kerosene, and jet fuels, but will run on any combustible gaseous fuel or liquid. Since safety on the water is paramount, diesel has become the preferred fuel of the marine industry because it's less volatile than gasoline. The U.S. Navy issued a mandate that all equipment aboard its ships must not burn gasoline by the year 2010, paving the way for MTT's prominence in the marine industry.
