Southeastern Region Tech Center

As a Tech Center for Delta Tau Data Systems, we have extensive knowledge of the PMAC family of Motion Controllers and can help you cut your development cycle.

locoMotion     Delta Tau FAQs     Delta Tau Compiler


Our product locoMotion is a set of visual components designed to simplify the interface to the PMAC software API and to speed your development time.

We write all our PMAC programs in symbolic and hence easy to maintain manner. This is accomplished using the Delta Tau Compiler that we designed in house.

Machines with Delta Tau

Cirque du Soleil - KA We wrote the software to move the stage and safety nets for Cirque Du Soleil's KA show at the MGM Grand in Las Vegas. HMI Screen Shot.  Click for Larger Image The stage moves 70 feet vertically and tilts 100 degrees. There are 18 winches controlling 2 safety nets. We incorporated our VCR, locoMotion, and Code Generator technologies for a robust product. Click here for more information.
Eagle Talon Cutoff Saw The Talon cross cuts lumber in an optimal fashion. It uses our motion controller package which HMI Screen Shot.  Click for Larger Image consists of the Delta Tau controller and the Advanced Digital logic PC104 computer. The HMI runs on Windows 2000. The optimization algorithms produce superior cut decisions as compared to the competition and they are fast. The saw is capable of blowing waste as small as 1/4 of an inch on a conveyor running at 130 inches per second.

250-750 Ton Hydraulic Press This hydraulic press has 1 upper punch and 1 lower punch. It uses the Delta Tau Turbo PMAC HMI Screen Shot.  Click for Larger Image controller in a UMAC configuration. Position is repeatable to 3 ten thousands of an inch. Force control is overlayed on position with an accuracy of 0.1 tons. Each of the upper and the lower have two 3-way valves and one 4-way valve controller. This allows for both high speed travel and accurate positioning.
