Honeywell traces its roots back to 1885, when an inventor named Albert Butz Patented the furance regulator and alarm. He formed the Butz Thermo-Electric Regulator Co., Minneapolis, in 1886 and a few weeks later invented a simple, yet ingenious device that he called the "damper flapper" which became the backbone of Honeywell. In 1904 a young engineer named Mark Honeywell, was perfecting the heat generator as part of his plumbing and heating business and later formed the Honeywell Heating Specialty Co, specializing in hot water heat generators. In 1955, a joint venture called Datamatic Corporation, was established with Raytheon Corp. that marked Honeywell's entry into the computer business. The company's first computer system, the D-1000, weighted 25 tons, took up 6,000 square feet and cost $1.5 million. Raytheon's interest in the computer venture was bought out in 1960 and the business name changed to Electronic Date Processing (EDP). In 1970, Honeywell merged its computer business with General Electric's to form Honeywell Information System, which performed well in mainframe markets. In 1986, Honeywell significantly enhanced its position in the aerospace industry with the purchase of Sperry Aerospace. Today, Honeywell is a multinatioal corporation that is not only a leading supplier to home, office and industrial control systems, but also a major defense contractor and an integral part of America's space exploration program. Honeywell products include turboprop engines, flight safety and landing systems, automation and controls, heating, ventilation, materials used in semiconductors, polymers for electronics, fibers, friction materials and consumer car products.
