Our main business activity was machine tool automation, control system design & automation combined with   electrical contacting ( EC 007785 ) , this often lead us to requests to modify machines to operate from single phase power , unfortunately machine conversions did not always prove to be the best way to approach the problem, we used several types of phase converters with varying success & could see very clearly that if we could develop a converter that matched our customers needs it could be a viable business as the converter in many cases formed a front line activity in a rural business operation .

We made a decision to reinvest capital each year to improve & further develop our  product .. the time & money spent has paid off over the years:

• 1993  Dowerin Field day award " Best new Release"
• 1994  rotary converter drive & rotor re-design to improve phase relationship
• 1996 start controller re-design to improve reliability in poor voltage areas
• 1996 worked with our capacitor supplier in Europe to double micron layer of capacitors to match our design specifications & suit the demanding rural  field voltage conditions
• 1997 improved converter control options ,auto start , single wire start.
• 1998 developed the VolTrak system to provide a balanced three phase output to meet the demands of modern equipment
• 1999 released the second generation rotary phase converter.
• 1999 C-Tick approval  ( N 10944 ) for both Static & Rotary converters
• 2000 released the LoadTrak control system for rotary converters
• 2002 released the FaultTrak system for rotary converters
• 2004 Released the NeuTrak system that provide a balanced voltage to neutral
• 2004 released the Floating pole rotary, this redefines the rotary converter & sets the bar high
• 2005 Opened office in Christchurch New Zealand 
• 2006 Released wireless control for rotary converters
