00:05Hi, we're here in the Hypotonic wiring assembly area around me are the people that help keep

00:09the lights on in over 90 countries around the world.

00:11I'm Dick Connell. I'm the vice president of Technology here at

00:14Hypotonic. We pride ourselves on supplying products and

00:17Hypotonic not just devices. That product is the device plus customer

00:22service, information, technology assistance throughout the lifetime of the product,

00:27we don't want to just give them a product and turn away and say,

00:29ok, let's go to the next time.

00:31I'm gonna work with those customers and we've had that long history of working with the same

00:35customers for 50 years. Piron has gone, has undergone a lot of changes

00:40in the years I've been here. I came here in 1975 as a small company in 1992

00:48was purchased by Hubble in 1999. We joined forces with Paley who prior to that

00:53was our fiercest competitor to test equipment and we became a family having to manage those

00:59two companies coming together after that very difficult.

01:04Our present general manager Reynolds Grove has taken that and just succeeded immensely just

01:10being able to take the two cultures, the European culture and the US culture blended

01:14them together and have us work much more efficiently as a team.

01:18And that is a tremendous challenge. The world of imitators,

01:21we are the original and still the best. Hi, I'm Reinhold.

01:25I'm the vice president and general manager of the Hubble high voltage test business.

01:29I believe we have between Haley and high patron and some of the most talented and finest people.

01:36And it's a true privilege. And still to this day,

01:40I really enjoy working with my own hands.

01:45And I think everybody here not only has a strong theoretical background but also enjoys

01:52to build things. Stanley Pesce was the founder of Hypotonic back

01:55in 1962 50 years ago. This year, his vision was to provide this test

02:00equipment for the entire industry. He served as my mentor for almost 20 years.

02:06I worked alongside of him. He worked alongside of us even though he was

02:10the owner of the company, the chairman of the board and he was on the factory floor.

02:15If I could pass half of what I learned, Stanley on to the young engineers that would make me

02:21very happy. Young engineers are the the the the source the

02:25lifeblood of the company.

02:27We have to be able to pass the technology on those good young engineers come in with new

02:31ideas, new passions, new solutions to things that frankly the older guys,

02:36we just, we haven't grown up with example is the ipad controllers,

02:41ipods. All these devices that are now used to control

02:46artistic woman never thought of.

02:49But the new generation has grown up with these things.

02:52They're not afraid of them, any future projects or current projects that I have to refer to for

02:57design. I go to Dick.

02:59He's a true mentor.

03:00I'm John. I recently graduated and an electrical engineer

03:04at Hypertonic. My passion is for science for design.

03:08I would like to be innovative. I like to design something that someone hasn't

03:11designed. The challenges that I get here every day are

03:15just endless. Every day.

03:16I come into work. I'm greeted by all of my colleagues.

03:19There's no one here that you cannot approach people here in this company or all like a

03:24family. We don't leave our relationships at the door

03:27when we go home at night, whether it's engineers with factory workers,

03:30with management, with cleaning people, we all participate together.

03:35Once we leave work, it's a great family atmosphere.

03:38I've been a proud employee of Hypotonic for 37 years, 26 years,

03:4326 years, six years, six years, three years, two

03:50years, 26 years, one year, two months. I'm proud to be part of the hydronic team.

03:56I've been really excited to see what the future holds.
