Delta Tau Motion Controllers (Omron)
Delta Tau motion controllers are widely regarded as some of the most powerful and capable controllers on the market—and have held that reputation for over 30 years. Our team has been working with Delta Tau products since 1989. We began with the SMCC platform and quickly moved into developing custom control systems with the introduction of the original PMAC in 1992. Since then, we’ve continued to develop systems with each new generation, right up to today’s latest PPMAC versions.

CIRCUIT BOARD DESIGN
Our expertise in circuit board design began as a practical response to a common challenge—helping customers develop high-performance systems under tight budget constraints. While collaborating on the design and build of several custom automation solutions, we identified an opportunity to streamline system architecture by developing custom printed circuit boards (PCBs).

ROLLING MILLS & TAKE-UP CONTROL SYSTEMS
We take great pride in the success of our rolling mill control systems. Our software provides comprehensive visibility into the complex series of processes involved in operating precision equipment—such as a three-stand mill with an integrated wire drawing station, a high-speed traversing take-up, and a high-resolution gauging system capable of on-the-fly thickness correction. The video above showcases a high-speed traversing take-up running at 1,100 FPM. The processed material has a thickness of just 0.007", demanding an exceptionally stable control system to ensure precise and consistent winding.
