Networking, connectivity, communication: As your partner for control technology, drive system and industrial robot solutions, we tend to focus on the technical meaning of these words. And indeed, this year we will be showcasing our latest developments and groundbreaking solutions for networked Industry 4.0 environments. But we also look forward to exchanging ideas with you and hearing about your automation applications – all digitally, of course!
The new CR700 crane drive – The best for your cranes
At Yaskawa, the customer’s needs are always our top priority. Our CR700 crane drive is the result of our more than 30 years of experience in the crane industry. It has been developed to optimize your cranes based on our core principles: “flexible, simple, sustainable.” Achieving these goals with uncompromising quality and dependability is what makes us the industry leader.
Maximum energy efficiency with the U1000 regenerative matrix converter
The U1000 is a high-efficiency inverter drive with the latest matrix converter technology. Thanks to sinusoidal input voltages and a power factor of almost one, it provides highly efficient energy regeneration while simultaneously reducing the load on network components such as transformers and power lines. Its ultra compact design makes the U1000 the first choice for innovative, energy-efficient drive solutions with or without energy regeneration.
It is the perfect solution for elevators, escalators, HVAC machines, hoists, centrifuges and many other applications.
Now with Profinet interface: Compact and powerful Sigma-7 servo drives from Yaskawa given an upgrade
The compact AC servo systems in the Sigma-7 series from Yaskawa already have a proven track record in many application areas, including packaging machines, equipment for the manufacture of semi-conductors and for wood processing, as well as digital presses. Now, in addition to EtherCAT and the Mechatrolink-III high-speed bus, the versatile servo drives also support the Profinet interface, which means that they can be integrated directly into Profinet communication networks. The series includes narrow single- and double-axis amplifier modules for 200 V or 400 V in a space-saving design. These can be lined up seamlessly in the control cabinet and can easily be daisy chained if required.
The new, compact GA500 inverter drive – Flexible app-based motor selection and setup
Despite its compact size, the GA500 can conquer virtually any application thanks to its versatile connection options and compatibility with a range of motor types.
The most important features of the GA500:
- One drive for controlling any induction, permanent magnet or synchronous reluctance motor
- Built-in EMC filter and brake chopper to save space in the control cabinet
- Simple motor setup without the need for auto-tuning simplifies optimization with connected machines
- Easy startup without a power supply by programming from a PC or smartphone
Extension for the MICRO PLC
We are presenting a brand-new innovation for the MICRO PLC. The controller is now available with analog inputs for current and/or voltage.
This extremely fast and compact micro-control system combines exceptional design with groundbreaking new operation and status displays.
SLIO – The smart control and I/O system
SLIO is a modular and extremely compact control and I/O system. It can be combined and used with any of our established systems and many systems from other manufacturers.
The completely redesigned SLIO system sets another benchmark in the automation industry, by combining high performance and the latest functions with a clever mechanical concept in an extremely compact design.
It also offers innovations in control and visualization, for example new, extended modules for the established SLIO IO series.
