What Computer Conversions does

Computer Conversions Corporation is a privately held, 50-plus-year-old manufacturer of precision motion control and position sensing products headquartered in East Northport, New York. The company designs and builds synchro, resolver, and LVDT signal conversion hardware — including synchro-to-digital and digital-to-synchro converters, brushless resolvers, power booster amplifiers, programmable limit switches, resolver-based absolute encoders, angle indicators, and AC reference supplies — as well as two platform products: COMMANDNET, a distributed network-centric data acquisition system with edge processing, and Digital Commander, a high-fidelity synchro/resolver signal simulator for hardware-in-the-loop testing. Underlying technology centers on proprietary conversion algorithms, tracking servo loops, and ruggedized analog/digital signal conditioning engineered for harsh military, aerospace, and industrial environments, with measured outputs such as 22-bit resolution (±10 arc-second accuracy) and 1,000-foot cable runs in severe RFI environments.

The company sells primarily to military and aerospace customers (fire control, radar pedestals, stabilized turrets, guidance systems), with secondary reach into industrial automation and simulation/testing segments. GTM is sales-led and direct: customers engage through a website contact form or phone inquiry at (631) 261-3300, with no public pricing and a quote-based sales process anchored to technical consultation. The company maintains ITAR, AS9100D, NADCAP, ISO9001, and RoHS3 certifications and has never discontinued a product in over 50 years, positioning itself as a long-term sustainment supplier for legacy and current defense platforms.

Revenue is generated from hardware unit sales across a broad catalog of converter families, resolver systems, embedded I/O modules, industrial controls, amplifiers, and simulators; no pricing models, revenue figures, or program-level financial data are publicly disclosed. The company is independently owned with no parent, no disclosed funding rounds, and no M&A activity in the available data, operating globally with primary markets in the United States and Canada.
