Its list of clients is most impressive, having provided design and development services from single components to complete product programmes, for Formula 1 teamsthrough to high performance and luxurious cars. It has also designed and built several cutting edge electric and hybrid powered vehicles.
Justin van't Hoff, Senior Electrical Systems Engineer, was looking for a low-noise DC motor for one of Delta's high-end applications, when a customer introduced him to the maxon motor Configuration tool (Configure To Order). The ability to configure the parts to suit the application, and then automatically generate performance graphs and CAD files to pass on to the design department is most impressive.
