Hytec Electronics have been providing control and data acquisition systems solutions for over 25 years. Our hardware engineers design and manufacture high specification analogue and digital instrumentation for the harshest of industrial and research environments. We build quality designs into modular instruments based on the stringent standards including CAMAC, VME, VME64x, PCI and Industry Packs. Our software engineers implement sophisticated system drivers in all the leading operating systems to support our hardware. Software application engineers consult, design and implement complex control and data acquisition solutions. Our expertise covers not only new technology systems integrating with process and management information systems, but also re-configuring and re-using exisiting plant interface hardware to enable legacy systems to live on with the latest generation computer hardware and software technology.
