We see from your search that you're looking for information on the term "Digital Controller", and we have a large number of manufacturers' news releases and technical articles here on Engineeringtalk which will be of interest. Let me be your guide.
 
Start with the news release Electric water pump gains intelligent control from Davies Craig, which we summarised at the time by saying "The release of the new generation electronic management for the innovative EWP gives drivers an instant choice between power or economy at the press of a button". Several months prior to that, we featured the news release Magnetic encoders keep track on the drag strip from Renishaw: "Helping tame the KTM's (barely) controlled explosion is a brace of 'bomb proof' Renishaw RM22 compact, high-speed rotary magnetic encoders".
 
In October 2006, we covered the news from Aerotech concerning its Nservo digital servo controller - take a look at Upgrade for digital servo controller which says: "Digital servo controller adds command and feedback interfacing between digital automation platform and piezo/ceramic servomotor drives and galvo based servo systems".
 
Take a look also at the news release from Power Efficiency Corporation, Energy efficiency extends to single-phase motors, as well as Power controller cuts motor demands at low loads from Power Efficiency Corporation, and Digital controller takes charge of tension from Andantex.
