Crown in the beginning started with a small clientèle developing temperature controls that they manufactured for coal burning furnaces. The production of these control items took place in a former hardware store located in New Bremen, Ohio, where Crown's head office presently remain.
By the year 1949, Crown shifted into the production of rotators for antenna due the increased interest in televisions at the time. The product was proficient at improving the image and signal quality. The company's lucrative move enabled them to become a leading manufacturer of units until 2001. The company ceased production in October after a decline in the global need for television antenna rotators.
In the early 1950's Crown diversified into the production and repair of electronic and mechanized parts for government and private industry. After numerous lucrative bids within a short period of time, the company had developed a respectable business in this field.
Versatility and achievement dominated Crown's ability to diversify once again. In 1957, production into the material handling industry started with lift truck manufacturing. The organization believed the market required a smaller line of superior quality lift trucks.

The sales and service operation of Crown's comprehensive lift truck line was accessible in the UK by the end of the decade.
