Date: 14 September 2011

Delta Tau Geo Brick LV family is available from Heason Technology
Delta Tau's Geo Brick LV family of packaged
8-axis motion and machine controllers is available from Heason
Technology as part of its motion system design and build service.
The Geo Brick LV and the newly announced 19" rack mount version,
the LV-PC, is supplied with eight user configurable 250W drives for
linear or rotary brushed and brushless servos, ceramic motors or
stepper motors in any mix with feedback interfaces that include
practically all commercially available types available today.
Furthermore, a comprehensive selection of fieldbus and
communications options, expandable machine I/O and the powerful
PMAC multi-axis motion control engine make the Geo Brick LV family
a perfect and flexible motion controller for applications where a
combination of motor technologies is required such as packaging
machines or equally for complex multi-axis positing systems for
research.
The Geo Brick LV's flexibility can also be increased for up to
16-axes of motion control using Delta Tau's fibre optic interface
port (MACRO) - and higher power third-party servo amplifiers and
stepper drives from Heason Technology's manufacturing partners can
be accommodated using on-board analogue outputs or with pulse and
direction control from digital I/O.
The Geo Brick LV's motion control capability spans simple single
axis point to point motion to extremely complex multi-axis motion
incorporating forward and inverse kinematics calculations with
advanced math capability. Ensuring ease of control for the most
demanding applications, the powerful multi-tasking motion
controller includes 64 user PLCs for asynchronous tasking and two
high speed PLCs that run at servo cycle speeds for tightly
synchronised electronic gearbox applications such as flying shear
or time critical monitoring and control.
Heason Technology has used the Geo Brick LV on several multi-axis
control system projects for customers that include Danfysik, the
Danish particle accelerator equipment manufacturer, Diamond Light
Source and CERN.
