The company's core understanding of the movement of air, power, coupled with its ability to design and manufacture sophisticated rotating devices was a ripe environment for the development of new products. When TDI design engineers applied themselves to developing an air starter for reciprocating and gas turbine engines, it was no surprise its TurboStart line quickly became a highly successful market brand. And when the company expanded its line to include turbine air starters for the oil and gas industry, ship and workboat markets, and mining industry, the TurboTwin line of air starters changed the way people defined performance. Today, TDI is recognized worldwide by every OEM and significant system packager as the leader for highly reliable starting of large engines.
