Since the
formation of the company in 1937, Honeywell Hymatic has been
firmly established within the aircraft equipment industry and has
remained at the forefront of the development and implementation of
fluid control technology solutions for aerospace and defence
applications. For over fifty years the company has been the
acknowledged world-wide leader in Joule Thomson cooling
technologies for infra-red applications. More recently the
development of Stirling cycle cryocoolers has affirmed the company
as the premier provider of ultra-high life cooling devices for
applications within industrial, communications and space
environments.
Honeywell Hymatic is part of the Honeywell Aerospace Airframe
Systems (AFS) enterprise, and forms the Centre of Excellence for cryogenic and
stored energy technologies within the group. The Honeywell Aerospace strategic
business unit of Engines, Systems and Services, offers an unrivalled breadth of
products and services, combining systems integration expertise with superior
technology and knowledge management results in a proven ability to deliver life
cycle value to customers.
Today, Honeywell Hymatic is involved in the supply of equipment for the
demanding and often harsh environments of missiles, fighting vehicles,
underwater weapons and submarines as well as combat aircraft. Honeywell Hymatic
also provides a comprehensive range of Customer Services to support products in
service.
For the future, Honeywell Hymatic equipment is already specified for use on many
of the major missile programs entering service in the first decade of the 21st
century, and is also penetrating new markets, such as Security and Homeland
defence with advanced technology, long life cryocoolers. All of this has
resulted from the continuous high levels of investment in product development.
