Teledyne Technologies Incorporated (NYSE: TDY) announced today that it
has acquired the assets of Demo Systems LLC. Demo Systems, headquartered
in Moorpark, Calif., designs and manufactures aircraft data loading
equipment, flight line maintenance terminals, and data distribution
software used by commercial airlines, the U.S. military and aircraft
manufacturers. Terms of the transaction were not disclosed.
"Demo Systems’ data loading and software products are highly
complementary to Teledyne Controls’ family of leading products for
aircraft data acquisition, data transfer and flight information
management,” said Robert Mehrabian, chairman, president and chief
executive officer of Teledyne Technologies. "As aircraft avionics
systems, such as Electronic Flight Bags and Aircraft Network Servers,
demand more complicated avionics software and data transfer, the
addition of Demo Systems will help Teledyne Controls continue to provide
hardware and software solutions for improved total aircraft information
management.”
Teledyne Technologies purchased the Demo Systems name, and the acquired
business will be combined with Teledyne Controls. Demo Systems had sales
of $7.3 million for its fiscal year ended December 31, 2007.
Teledyne Technologies is a leading provider of sophisticated electronic
subsystems, instrumentation and communication products, engineered
systems, aerospace engines, and energy and power generation systems.
Teledyne Technologies’ operations are primarily located in the United
States, the United Kingdom and Mexico. For more information, visit
