As one of the 'big three' aero-engine manufacturers, it competes with and, although it has also formed joint ventures with both of these companies. In addition to aircraft engines, Pratt & Whitney manufactures for industrial and, and marine turbines. As of 2014, the company reported having 31,500 employees supporting more than 11,000 customers in 180 countries around the world. In 2013, Pratt & Whitney's revenue totaled $14.5 billion. Contents.
History Early history In April 1925, an native and former executive at, was determined to start an aviation-related business of his own. His included, another prominent Ohioan of the early aviation industry, and Frederick's brother Gordon Rentschler, both of whom were on the board of Niles Bement Pond, then one of the largest corporations in the world. Frederick Rentschler approached these men as he sought capital and assets for his new venture.
Rentschler persuaded the board of Niles Bement Pond that their (P&WMT) subsidiary of, should provide the funding and location to build a new aircraft engine being developed by Rentschler, and colleagues, all formerly of. Conceived and designed by Mead, the new engine would be a large, design. Pratt & Whitney Machine Tool was going through a period of self-revision at the time to prepare itself for the post- era, discontinuing old product lines and incubating new ones.
The Great War had been profitable to P&WMT, but the peace brought a predictable glut to the machine tool market, as contracts with governments were canceled and the market in used, recently built tools competed against new ones. P&WMT's future growth would depend on innovation. Having idle factory space and capital available at this historical moment, to be invested wherever good seemed available, P&WMT saw the industry, both and, as one with some of the greatest growth and development potential available anywhere for the next few decades.
It lent Rentschler $250,000, the use of the Pratt & Whitney name, and space in their building. This was the beginning of the Pratt & Whitney Aircraft Company. Pratt & Whitney Aircraft's first engine, the 425 horsepower (317 kW), was completed on Christmas Eve 1925. On its third test run it easily passed the Navy qualification test in March 1926; by October, the Navy had ordered 200. The Wasp exhibited performance and reliability that revolutionized American aviation. The R-1340 powered the aircraft of, and many other record flights.
The R-1340 was followed by another very successful engine, the. Eventually a whole was developed. Both engines are still in use in agricultural aircraft around the world and produce more power than their original design criteria. George Mead soon led the next step in the field of large, state-of-the-art, air-cooled, radial aircraft engines (which the Wasp dominated) when Pratt & Whitney released its. It was basically 'a bigger Wasp'. In 1929, Rentschler ended his association with Pratt & Whitney Machine Tool and merged Pratt & Whitney Aircraft with and other companies to form the. His agreement allowed him to carry the Pratt & Whitney name with him to his new corporation.
Recent In October 2014, Pratt & Whitney was awarded a $592 million contract with US Defense Department to supply 36 engines for the fighter. In January 2017, 10 employees reportedly left the company, including the head of the F135 engine program. Incurred expenses used to transport officials to the company's facility in 2012 were deemed unethical, which led to the departure of the employees.
Headquarters. Headquarters on Main Street in East Hartford Pratt & Whitney is headquartered in and also has plants in;;;;;,;; and. The home stadium for the, is located adjacent to Pratt & Whitney's campus, on Pratt's company-owned former airfield of. In 2015, the stadium was renamed to Pratt & Whitney Stadium at Rentschler Field in time for the 2015–2016 University of Connecticut football season. Divisions Pratt & Whitney is a business unit of industrial, making it a sister company to UTC Aerospace Systems , and refrigeration giant.
It is also involved in two major joint ventures, the with GE which manufactures engines for the Airbus A380, and company with, and the which manufactures engines for the Airbus A320 and the McDonnell Douglas MD-90 aircraft. Commercial engines Pratt & Whitney's large commercial engines power more than 25 percent of the world’s passenger aircraft fleet and serve more than 800 customers in 160 countries. With more than 16,000 large commercial engines installed today, Pratt & Whitney provides power to hundreds of airlines and operators, from narrow-bodied airplanes to wide-bodied jumbo jetliners. In June 2007, Pratt & Whitney’s fleet of large commercial engines surpassed 1 billion flight hours of service. Global Material Solutions Pratt & Whitney’s Global Material Solutions (GMS) makes parts for the engine thus giving customers an alternative in new CFM56 engine materials. In addition to engine parts, GMS provides customers with fleet management and customized maintenance service programs. United Airlines was the GMS launch customer.
GMS received its first part certification in July 2007, when the Federal Aviation Administration (FAA) granted Parts Manufacturing Approval (PMA) certification for the GMS high-pressure turbine (HPT) shroud for the CFM56-3 engine. In March 2008, the FAA certified the GMS fan and booster with a Supplemental Type Certificate (STC) with FAA Chapter 5 life limits equal to the original type certificate holder.
The STC was the first FAA certification ever granted for alternative life-limited engine parts. In May 2008, Global Material Solutions received FAA STCs for its remaining life limited parts for CFM56-3 engines. Global Service Partners Pratt & Whitney Global Service Partners (GSP) offers overhaul, maintenance and repair services for Pratt & Whitney, International Aero Engines, General Electric, Rolls-Royce, and CFMI engines.

Speaking to Reuters June 16, 2013, ahead of the Paris Airshow 2013, Pratt & Whitney President David Hess said he was confident that Canada would decide to stick with the F-35 program despite its recent discussions about having a new competition. If the orders did shift to another company, Pratt & Whitney could decide to move some of the industrial base work it is currently doing in Canada, Hess said. 'We might reallocate the work elsewhere,' he said, adding that reduced order volumes would likely trigger changes in Canada. The division admitted in July 2012 to providing engines and engine software for China's first attack helicopter, the. This violated U.S.
