Delta Computer Systems Announces 3Q’07 Availability for NEW RMC150E Motion Controller CPU

March 31, 2007 – Vancouver, WA – Delta Computer Systems, Inc. announces that the RMC150E, a new CPU option in the company’s flagship RMC100 Series multi-axis motion controller family, is now in pre-release beta testing with production units projected to be available around mid-year.

The RMC150E CPU module works with Delta’s field proven RMC100 Series I/O modules and is programmed using Delta’s powerful new RMCTools software—a combination that provides a leap forward in capability and ease-of-use for fluid power and electric servo motion control applications. Like the RMC100 CPU, the RMC150E CPU can handle a maximum of eight synchronized axes; additionally the RMC150E CPU can handle eight dual-loop position-pressure/force axes and reference axes, twice the previous maximums.

The motion interface modules that are used with the new RMC150E CPU can be "mixed and matched" in 2-, 4-, 6-, or 8-axis configurations for industry-leading motion control choices. The built-in 10/100Mbit Ethernet port frees a module slot for expanded discrete I/O. A USB port provides a convenient programming connection.

RMCTools features flexible User Programs with extensive commands including robust mathematical expressions complementing setup wizards, tuning wizards and a plot manager for visual or graphical diagnostics. Delta’s advanced RMCTools software has been field hardened over the past three years on Delta’s 1- and 2-axis RMC70 Series, and is now available to support the multi-axis RMC100 Series when using the RMC150E CPU.

Steve Nylund, Delta CEO stated, "The RMC150E CPU brings more functionality and usability to multi-axis hydraulic, pneumatic and servo electric motion applications." Nylund added, "After a select customer beta program is completed in mid 2007, we expect the RMC150E CPU will quickly become a popular choice for new applications using Delta’s RMC Motion Controllers."
