Big data use in production with the i3 Mechatronics concept, new hardware components for the i³ CONTROL automation platform, an update of visualization hardware and software and the current LA700 lift converter: These and other examples of comprehensive Yaskawa has automation, drive, control and robotics solutions with it at SPS 2023 (November 14th – 16th, 2023, Nuremberg Trade Fair – Stand No. 7-340).
Once again, Yaskawa is focusing on the i³ CONTROL automation platform: The system forms a technically coordinated overall solution for industry-specific controls – from the engineering software to the controller hardware to the integrated chip technology. And in the future also beyond. After this new platform was presented for the first time at the last SPS, the complete controller portfolio of the iC922x series will now follow this year.
The Yaskawa portfolio of HMIs and Panel PCs also promises innovations in hardware and software: The new generation will be programmable with, among other things, the new visualization software “YASKAWA Designer”. This is integrated into i³ Engineer, the software environment of the i³ CONTROL platform.
In the area of lift-specific frequency converters, Yaskawa is also providing an exclusive preview of the upcoming LA700 series at the trade fair: The newly developed devices are powerful, flexible, but quieter in operation and offer an app function for programming and monitoring remotely.
Yaskawa is responding to the current changes in the automation industry with a compatible alternative that is available from stock: The high-speed control system 300S+ easily makes the existing control environment fit for the future.
And last but not least, Yaskawa robots can also be seen in action at the SPS: the focus is on the current cobot ecosystem, Motoman industrial robots for handling, welding, palletizing and many other applications as well as robots “made in Europe”.
