(February 2010) Industry Manufacturing Founded 1890 Founder(s) Émile Salmson Defunct 1946 Headquarters Boulogne-Billancourt. (France) Products Cars Salmson S4C Salmson was a French engineering company, initially in the automobile and aeroplane manufacturing area, turning to pump manufacturing in the 1960s. Contents 1 History 2 Aircraft manufacture 3 Car manufacture 4 See also 5 References // History It was established by Émile Salmson (1858-1917) as Emile Salmson, Ing. as a workshop in Paris (1890), making steam-powered compressors and centrifugal pumps for railway and military purposes. Subsequently joined by engineers Canton and Unné, it was renamed Emile Salmson & Cie, building petrol-powered lifts and motors (1896). The company became one of the first to make purpose-built aircraft engines, starting before World war I and continuing into World War II. After World War I the company looked around for other work and started making car bodies and then complete cars. Car production finished in 1957. Focus also moved back to pump production and the facilities moved to Mayenne in 1961. The firm was bought by ITT-LMT in 1962 and then by Thomson in 1976.[1] Its headquarters today are in Chatou. Aircraft manufacture Salmson 9Z It moved to Billancourt and manufactured the Salmson 9 series of water-cooled radial engines. During World War I Salmson made its first complete aeroplanes, mainly the two seat fighter/reconnaissance plane, the Salmson 2A2. These were used in combat by both the French and the American Expeditionary force. The company also designed a prototype of a single seat scout/fighter, the Salmson 3, but this was not produced in large quantities. Salmson aircraft were also used for air mail to India in (1911). Aeroplane manufacturing moved to Villeurbanne near Lyon. Two world records were set by Maryse Bastié who flew Le Bourget to Moscow (1931). The aero-engine models made were:- 3Ad 5Ap-01 5Aq-01 7Aca 7Aq 9 A 9 AB 9 ABC 172 kW (230 hp) 9 AC 9 AD 9 ADB 134 kW (180 hp) 9Adr 9 AZ 9 A2C 9 CM 9 M 9 ND 131 kW (175 hp) 9 P 9 Y Salmson-(Canton-Unne) Z9 172–190 kW (230–250 hp) water cooled Salmson 9Za Salmson 9Zm and the aircraft Salmson SAL-2 Salmson SAL-2 Berline Salmson SAL-3 Salmson SAL-4 Salmson SAL-5 Salmson SAL-7 Salmson D-1 Phrygane (1934) Salmson D-2 Phrygane Salmson D-3 Phryganet Salmson D-4 Phrygane Major Salmson D-6 CriCri (1936) Salmson D-7 CriCri Major Salmson D-21 Phrygane Salmson D-211 Phrygane Salmson D-57 Phryganet Car manufacture Salmson S4E The Billancourt factory became the car manufacturing plant directed by Emile Petit. As the firm had no direct car design expertise they started by building the British GN cyclecar under licence, displaying six cars at the 1919 Paris Salon.[2] In 1922 the car part of the business became a separate company, named Société des Moteurs Salmson. The first Salmson car proper used a four-cylinder engine designed by Petit with unusual valve gear: a single pushrod actuated both inlet and exhaust valves pushing to open the exhaust and pulling to open the inlet. This was used in the AL models from 1921. Later the same year the company built its first twin-overhead-cam engine, which was fitted to the 1922 D-type, although most production at first used the pushrod engine. Salmson Grand Prix 1927 Models included AL (cyclecar, 1920), D-type (1922) VAL3 (1922), AL3 (1923), GSC San Sebastian, Gran Sport (GS, 1924-30), 2ACT (1926). Salmson won 550 automobile races and set ten world records (1921-28) before closing the racing department in 1929. The S-series cars took over from the D-type, starting in 1929 and becomong a long lived series. S4 (1929-32) S4C (1932) S4D (1934) S4DA (1935-38) S4-61 (1938-51) S4E (1938-51). The firm also made the 2A2 de Aéropostale aeroplane. After World War II the S4E and S4-61 were re-introduced and in 1950 a new car arrived in the shape of the E72 La Randonnée[2]. Car sales were slow in the postwar market and the company was kept going by its aircraft engine sales, although the factory had to close for a period[2]. A new car, the 2300 S, was shown in 1953 and it even took part in the 1955, 1956 and 1957 Le Mans 24 hour races[3] After bankruptcy in 1953, all activities ended in 1957 and Renault bought the factory.[2] See also List of aircraft engines References ^ salmson.com ^ a b c d Georgano, N.
