Acquisition adds control capability
Bayside Motion Group, specialist manufacturer of motion products and systems, has acquired D-Tech of Germany, manufacturer of high-performance, programmable inverters and servo drives
Bayside considers the D-Tech product range will complement the company's existing motion products, adding electronic control capability to a previously predominant mechanical catalogue The acquisition of D-Tech follows the setting-up of a new 500m2 administration and production facility near Frankfurt, providing both assembly and production capacity in Europe for the first time to promote a faster and more flexible service for customers

Linear stages provide low-cost solution
Particularly suited for transporting loads at high-speed and can be employed for either single or multi-axis applications (X, Y, Z or gantry)
Employing microelectronics together with highly automated production techniques, D-Tech has integrated both inverter and servo control technology into a single robust package that is cost efficient, powerful and easy to use.
The drives are capable of controlling 3-phase motors from standard units to brushless synchronous motors, with or without encoder feedback - including torque control.
Power ratings for the inverters and servo-amplifiers range from 0.5 to 3.0kW.
"Bayside is well established in the mechanical side of motion control technology, offering an extensive range of precision linear and rotary products and integrated systems," says Paul Seale, European sales manger.
"However, a piece of the jigsaw was missing without being able to offer the necessary control capability.
D-Tech products will help to complete the picture and enable Bayside to offer total motion solutions.".
