Delta Motion makes new name and logo official

Oct. 3, 2023
Jacob Paso becomes president; Wade Nylund becomes COO

Delta Computer Systems, a manufacturer specializing in industrial hydraulic motion controllers, is formally introducing a new business trade name, Delta Motion.

Steve Nylund will continue in his role as chief executive officer (CEO), while Jacob Paso assumes the position of president, replacing Peter Nachtwey, who has retired but remains on Delta’s board of directors. Wade Nylund has been selected for a new position as chief operating officer (COO).

As the company evolved over the past 40 years, Delta has increasingly focused on the design, production and sales of its Delta-branded motion controllers. After obtaining a U.S. trademark for Delta Motion, a new logo was introduced in 2022, and adopting the trade name is a natural evolution of the brand refresh (Figure 1).

The full legal name remains Delta Computer Systems, which will appear on legal documents, often followed by “also doing business as Delta Motion” or “dba Delta Motion.”

Paso has more than 20 years of experience at Delta Motion as the motion products development manager, responsible for coordinating the development of the RMC Motion Controller products and the complementary RMCTools software, user documentation and customer training curriculum. He holds a bachelor of science in electrical engineering (BSEE) from the University of Minnesota and a master of science in electrical engineering (MSEE) from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology and expects to receive his master of business administration (MBA) from Washington State University in 2024.

As COO, Nylund has more than 20 years of experience in global supply chain management and production operations. He is responsible for Delta Motion’s day-to-day operations and facilities management, as well as product quality. Nylund holds a bachelor of science (BS) in manufacturing engineering from Western Washington University.

“I am very happy with the addition of these officers,” says Steve Nylund. “We have been fortunate to attract and keep talented people over the years, and promoting from within is consistent with Delta’s emphasis on continuous, incremental improvement. With these new officers, Delta Motion is well-positioned for continued success in the future.”

For nearly 40 years, Delta has supplied motion controllers and other industrial products. Delta's RMC Motion Controllers are used for servo-hydraulic and servo-electric closed-loop control in a wide array of single and multi-axis control and testing applications.
