Teledyne Technologies Incorporated provides enabling technologies for industrial
growth markets. We have evolved from a company that was primarily focused on
aerospace and defense to one that serves multiple markets that require advanced
technology and high reliability. These markets include deepwater oil and gas
exploration and production, oceanographic research, air and water quality environmental
monitoring, electronics design and development, factory automation and medical
imaging. Our products include monitoring and control instrumentation for marine
and environmental applications, harsh environment interconnects, electronic
test and measurement equipment, digital imaging sensors and cameras, aircraft
information management systems, and defense electronics and satellite communication
subsystems. We also supply engineered systems for defense, space, environmental
and energy applications. We differentiate ourselves from many of our direct
competitors by having a customer and company sponsored applied research center
that augments our product development expertise.
Our Instrumentation segment provides monitoring and control instruments for
marine, environmental, industrial and other applications, as well as electronic
test and measurement equipment. We also provide power and communications connectivity
devices for distributed instrumentation systems and sensor networks deployed
in mission critical, harsh environments.
Our Digital Imaging segment includes high-performance sensors, cameras and
systems, within the visible, infrared, ultraviolet and X-ray spectra for use
in industrial, government and medical applications, as well as micro electro-mechanical
systems (“MEMS”). It also includes our sponsored and centralized
research laboratories benefiting government programs and businesses.
We design, develop and manufacture image capture products, primarily consisting
of high-performance image sensors and digital cameras for use in industrial,
scientific, medical and photogrammetry applications. We also design, develop
and manufacture image processing products, primarily consisting of hardware
and software for image processing in industrial and medical applications. We
develop high-resolution, low-dose X-ray sensors for medical, dental and industrial
applications. Our high-performance image sensors utilize both charge coupled
device (“CCD”) and complementary metal-oxide semiconductor (“CMOS”)
technology. In particular, our CMOS image sensing technology is used in our
large flat panel detectors for X-ray imaging and in most of our sensors used
for industrial machine vision applications. Our image processing software allows
original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) and systems integrators
to develop vision applications using our image acquisition and processing hardware.
Our smart camera products are user-friendly, cost-effective vision appliances
for task-specific factory floor applications such as gauging, high-precision
alignment, inspection, assembly verification and machine guidance. Our smart
cameras are designed to be quickly deployed by technicians on the factory floor.
The 2015 acquisition of ICM adds lightweight X-ray sources for the inspection
of materials and structures, ranging from light aviation parts to thick steel
pipelines in harsh and extreme environments. ICM’s mobile X-ray inspection
systems are provided to government, security and explosive ordinance disposal
personnel for the analysis of suspicious objects.
Our Aerospace and Defense Electronics segment provides sophisticated electronic
components and subsystems and communications products, including defense electronics,
harsh environment interconnects, data acquisition and communications equipment
for aircraft, and components and subsystems for wireless and satellite communications,
as well as general aviation batteries.
We provide a range of microwave products ranging from components to highly integrated
subsystems and solutions to our customers. Our helix traveling wave tubes, commonly
called TWTs, used to provide broadband power amplification of microwave signals.
Military applications include radar, electronic warfare and satellite communication.
We make TWTs for commercial applications as well, such as electromagnetic compatibility
test equipment and satellite communication terminals. We also provide high-power
solid-state TWT replacement amplifiers and complete amplifiers that incorporate
a TWT and a power supply.
Our Engineered Systems segment provides innovative systems engineering and
integration and advanced technology development as well as manufacturing solutions
for defense, space, environmental and energy applications. This segment also
designs and manufactures electrochemical energy systems and small turbine engines.
