AMT Netherlands
Advanced Micro Turbines originated in the Netherlands in 1991, and we have been manufacturing turbines commercially since 1994. Managed by Bennie van de Goor, the founder of the company, and the pilot of the world famous 'Dutch Pulse-Jet' team, AMT Netherlands has more than 20 years experience in the development and flight demonstration of high performance and jet powered aircraft. Based in Helmond, near Eindhoven, the company has been growing steadily over the last 14 years to cater for the increased demand for our products in all markets.
Pegasus HP
(airstart)
The Pegasus motor was first produced commercially in 1994, its legendary reliability and performance have quickly become a benchmark in the industry. Our Olympus HP and Mercury HP turbines are further developments of the Pegasus HP design, and utilise the same proven concepts and engineering principles. The Olympus was released in 1995 for special applications, large models and experienced operators, and offers a 70% thrust increase over the Pegasus with only slightly larger dimensions.
Mercury HP
(airstart)
A later version, the Olympus HP, was redesigned from our original AMT Netherlands design Olympus engine with more than 20 % thrust than our original Olympus design. Our latest engine, the Titan, was specially designed for proffesional applications but also universities use this engine for projects.
All motors are based on our own AMT Netherlands revolutionary design and unique axial flow turbine, giving exceptional thrust-to-weight ratios, with low fuel consumption and rapid acceleration times. Running on liquid fuel (Jet A1, kerosene or paraffin) they need no separate lubrication system - just one of the many innovative concepts that we developed, which are now becoming the industry standards. Our present range of 4 turbines, with thrusts from 90 - 392 Newtons.
AMT Netherlands is totally committed to the continual development of the efficiency and safety of the miniature gas turbine motors, and associated equipment, that we supply. Quality control is strictly maintained, and every turbine is assembled by skilled engineers and rigorously tested before despatch to ensure that it meets precise performance and safety parameters. Prospective and existing Customers are welcome to visit our offices by prior arrangement.
Furthermore, to prevent any confusion, we would like to make it completely clear that AMT Netherlands has no connection at all with another company with a similar name in the USA that sells copies of our original turbine designs.
