Engineering development
All equipment marketed by CRL is designed and manufactured
by the company. CRL has the personnel and facilities to develop products
from original engineering concepts through prototype construction
to final production. CRL offers a full design and integration capability
to all customers purchasing its products and we specialise in short
production runs which are often the norm in Australia. CRL has CAD-based
PCB, schematic drawing and mechanical design capability. Because of
this intimate product knowledge, customer-driven modifications or
in-service upgrades are easily incorporated. This includes full installation
documentation and, if necessary, on-site technical support. Normal
business communications, including a web site support page, e-mail
and a toll free support line are available to all users.

Vibration Testing
Using a Vibration Research® VR5600 Vibration system CRL is able to fully test both developmental and production equipment and individual circuit cards to Method 514.5 as detailed in MIL-STD-810F
Environmental Testing
Using a TENNY® environmental test chamber CRL is able to test the performance of both development and production equipment as detailed in MIL-STD-810F Method 501/502 (hot/cold), 507 (humidity) and 500 (low pressure/altitude).

Machine Shop
CRL uses Semiens Solid Edge® part modeling and design software.
This state-of-the-art software allows the design and assembly of 'virtual' products
that, once perfected, can be delivered to fabricators for CNC based manufacture.
CRL also operates a fully equipped machine shop capable of producing machined metal
products for both low rate production and R&D applications.
Software development
CRL develops all low level (assembler) software used in CYCOM® equipment. All high level software which is designed to operate our equipment, including GPS and moving map display systems, is also developed in-house. CRL maintains a full time, non-contractor based software department whose task it is to conduct research into data transmission, including error correction schemes and cryptographic systems, support existing clients and to develop upgrades, modifications and bug fixes.
