abstract:Remington Rand (1927–1955) was an early American business machines manufacturer, best known originally as a typewriter manufacturer and in a later incarnation as the manufacturer of the UNIVAC line of mainframe computer. It split off from its parent company, Remington Arms, in the early nineteenth century.
In the 1940s the government began an investigation of the business tabulator market, which was then split formally between IBM (electrical tabulators) and RemingtonRand (mechanical tabulators).
