Q: Thanks for taking the time, Lyle! First, can you provide a brief overview of Delta Technology and the company’s mission?

A: Delta Technology is an end-to-end automation and robotics solutions provider. Our mission is to help manufacturers simplify their operational challenges through innovative automation that improves efficiency, quality, and safety. At the heart of what we do is enabling our customers to scale smarter and compete stronger in today’s global market.

Q: Can you share how the company has grown into an established automation and robotics solutions provider today since its founding in 1997?

A: We started in 1997 as a small engineering services company focused on custom automation. Over time, we expanded into a full-service provider, delivering everything from design and integration to long-term service and support. Today, we serve leading manufacturers across industries like aerospace, medical devices, and consumer products. What’s fueled that growth is our ability to adapt quickly, listen to customers, and deliver solutions that not only solve their challenges but also fit seamlessly within their organizational culture—while keeping pace with the rapidly changing landscape of automation and robotics. 

Q: With advancements in technology revolutionizing manufacturing operations, can you discuss the importance of integrating state-of-the-art robotics and automation solutions for businesses to maintain a competitive edge?

A: Today, automation isn’t just about reducing costs, it’s about building resilience and staying competitive. Robotics and automation enable manufacturers to scale despite labor shortages, ensure consistency and quality, and bring products to market faster. Just as importantly, the right solutions fit within a company’s culture and operations, freeing employees from repetitive or hazardous tasks so they can focus on higher-value work. Businesses that embrace automation now are positioning themselves to be a leader in their industry and drive change in environments that are evolving faster than ever.

Q: Why did you and the Delta Technology team decide to raise outside capital to help grow the business?

A: The demand for automation and robotics is growing at an unprecedented pace, and we saw a clear opportunity to scale our ability to make an impact. To meet that demand, we needed to invest in new talent, expand our capacity, and accelerate innovation. Raising outside capital allows us to do all of that while staying focused on delivering solutions that fit our customers’ needs and culture. It positions Delta Technology to move faster, serve more industries, and continue leading as automation reshapes manufacturing worldwide.

Q: How did you and Delta Technology discover Hum Capital and what was your experience like raising capital via the Intelligent Marketplace?

A: We were introduced to Hum Capital through our network, and what stood out immediately was how their Intelligent Marketplace aligned with the way we run our business, data-driven, transparent, and focused on outcomes. Instead of spending months chasing introductions, we were able to connect quickly with investors who understood both our growth story and the broader opportunities in automation. The process was efficient, but more importantly, it positioned us with the right capital partners to accelerate hiring, capacity, and innovation. For us, it wasn’t just about raising capital, it was about finding the right partners to help us scale at the pace the industry demands.

Q: How about a fun question! What’s been your favorite moment as CEO of Delta Technology?

A: My favorite moments are always when I see the impact our solutions have for our customers. Walking into a facility and seeing equipment our team designed running flawlessly is incredibly rewarding. It’s a reminder that what we build doesn’t just automate processes; it helps businesses grow, keeps people safe, and creates opportunities for their teams.
