3. Development process

Over 130 years of innovation:

Dating back to 1885, an inventor named Albert Butz obtained a patent for a furnace regulator and alarm and established the Butz Electronic Thermostat Company in Minneapolis, USA. . After that, he successfully developed an ingenious device he called the "air damper" that could help automatically adjust the indoor temperature.

In 1904, young engineer Mark Honeywell perfected the heater as part of his own pipe manufacturing and heating business. Two years later, Honeywell Heating Specialty Co, incorporated was established to specialize in water heaters.

In 1927, the Minneapolis Heat Regulator Company merged with the Honeywell Specialty Heater Company to create the Minneapolis-Honeywell Regulator Company, becoming the largest manufacturer of high-quality controllers at the time. The company has made several successful acquisitions in the controller space during the course of its operations, one worth mentioning is Brown Instrument Co., a global leader in industrial controllers and indicators and the inventor of the pyrometer. By.

In 1957, a fire detection and alarm company was acquired, the first of many acquisitions that would transform the company into the global leader it is today. In many North American cities, the red and black "Enjoy Honeywell Protection" window stickers and posters are almost as famous as Round thermostats.

In 1963, the company officially changed its name to Honeywell. In fact, for nearly 40 years before that, people had inadvertently called the company Honeywell. Six years later, Honeywell's instruments helped American astronauts Neil Armstrong and Edwin "Buzz" Aldrin land on the moon.

In 1970, Honeywell merged its computer business with that of General Electric to form Honeywell Information Systems, which performed well in the mainframe market. In 1986, the emergence of personal computers allowed the company to form a joint venture with Compagnie des Machines Bull of France and NEC of Japan to establish Honeywell Bull. As Honeywell's shareholding gradually decreased, it eventually withdrew from the joint venture. But digital computer technology is applied to Honeywell's traditional automation control fields, integrating sensors and actuators.

In 1986, Honeywell greatly improved its position in the aerospace field by acquiring Sperry Aerospace. Honeywell instantly became the world's leading avionics systems integrator.

In 1991, AlliedSignal began a comprehensive transformation program under new CEO Larry Bossidy and new leadership in many key businesses. Prepare the company for global competition in the years ahead by taking bold steps to improve cash flow and operating margins and increase productivity. In 1993, LianSignal Signal Corporation was renamed LianSignal Corporation to strengthen the image of a company and also mark the comprehensive integration of various businesses.

In 1992, the company sold its remaining shares in United Texas Gas in a public offering with net proceeds of $940 million.

Over the next six years, Bao led the company through a growth and productivity transformation that quintupled AlliedSignal's market value, far exceeding that of the Dow Jones Industrial Average and S&P 500.

In 1999, Honeywell and AlliedSignal merged, and the merged company continued to use the Honeywell name.
