The Burroughs Corporation was a major American manufacturer of business equipment.

And while it was one of the largest producers of mainframe computers in the world, Burroughs also produced related equipment as well, including typewriters and printers.

In 1886, the American Arithmometer Company was established in St. Louis, Missouri to produce and sell an adding machine invented by William Seward Burroughs ( grandfather of Beat Generation author William S. Burroughs ).

In 1904, six years after Burroughs ' death, the company moved to Detroit and changed its name to the Burroughs Adding Machine Company.

In the 1950s, Burroughs had worked with the Federal Reserve Bank on the development and computer processing of magnetic ink character recognition ( MICR ) especially for the processing of bank cheques.
