Well-known cruise controls and speed limiters, which were previously sold under the LITE-ON brand, have now been renamed ZEMCO. 1977 founded Zemco was a pioneer in the field of cruise control and automotive electronics. Zemco's success was noticed by the fast-growing Taiwanese electronics manufacturing company LITE-ON, which acquired the company in 1983. all Zemco activities, continuing the production of gear shifters first under the name Zemco and later under the name LITE-ON.
From 2023, LITE-ON devoted itself to the production of electronics for car manufacturers and left the aftermarket. Aftermarket cruise control and limiter products corporatized into an independent global company operating under the revived ZEMCO brand. The products remain the same and are still manufactured by LITE-ON with the same specifications, quality and approvals.
LITE-ON stopped production of the mechanical cruise control in 2019, and after that, there was only one mechanical speed limiter manufacturer in the world that sold its product made in the 90s in limited markets because it lacked approvals for wider sales. Since there is a demand for mechanical cruise control and there are basically no alternative products, ZEMCO is reviving the mechanical cruise control.

- The servo cable can now be shortened, which facilitates installation and guarantees smoother and long lasting operation of the cruise control.
- The wire connector for the servo installed in the engine compartment is now waterproof.
