Hedemora Diesel
Hedemora Diesel is a trademark for the Swedish company Hedemora Turbo & Diesel AB in Hedemora, Dalarnas län (a county in Sweden). It is a spinoff from Hedemora Verkstäder. The company used to produce diesel engines for ships, locomotives, and oil rigs along with backup generators for hospitals. The company later shifted its focus to supplying existing engines with spare parts and services.
In February 2006, Hedemora Diesel was bought by the Australian company Coote Industrial Ltd.[1]
In February 2016, the company name was changed to Hedemora Turbo & Diesel, to include the manufacturing, design authority, parts and service supply of HS Turbochargers, that were acquired from Turbomeca in 2009.
