YASKAWA MOTION

Sigma 7 Servo Products

Servopacks

Sigma-7 SERVOPACKs are fully digital, networkable servo amplifiers that offer the output needed for precise, high speed actuation of one or two axes of servo motor motion. The power options range from 30 watt to 15 kW with 100/200 and 400 VAC operation.

Yaskawa rotary servo motors

Rotary Servo Motors

The AC brushless rotary servo motors cover a full range of load requirement in both small and medium capacities. Sigma-7 motors can be equipped with matching gear heads to suit a wider range of speed or mechanical linkage requirements.

Gear Motors

Equip any Sigma-7 rotary servo motor with a custom-matched Yaskawa gear motor. Match the needs of a high torque, low RPM application with high-precision, low backlash inline planetary gearheads from our selection of five different gear ratios and six gearhead sizes.

Yaskawa direct drives

Direct Drive Servo Motors

Direct drive technology eliminates backlash, reduces the number of mechanical components, and provides a stiff mechanical system for highly dynamic applications.

Yaskawa linear servo motors

Linear Servo Motors

Yaskawa linear motors are directly coupled to the load, achieving high positioning accuracy and repeatability, with smooth motion up to 5 m/s. All Yaskawa linear motors are plug-and-play compatible with the Sigma-7 and Sigma-5 SERVOPACKS.

Linear Slides

Turnkey linear stages, built-to-order and fully tested. Bolt it down, connect it up, and enjoy world class linear motion immediately. The Sigma Trac II features the latest linear motor technology for high performance and repeatability with excellent reliability.

Sigma Trac II

LINEAR MOTION MADE EASY

Yaskawa’s Sigma Trac II are ready-to-run, turnkey linear stages that are built-to-order and fully tested. Bolt it down, connect it up, and enjoy world class linear motion immediately. Sigma Trac II will significantly reduce your time to market while increasing your machine’s speed and performance.  DOWNLOAD THE SIGMA TRAC II BROCHURE….

IMPROVE MACHINE PERFORMANCE

Minimize cycle times and maximize productivity with speeds up to 5m/s, and peak force output up to 5040 N.

ABSOLUTE ENCODER FEEDBACK

Simplifies wiring and requires no homing routines, even after removing power from the equipment.

Sigma Trac II

WIDE RANGE OF SIZES

With six motor sizes and 24 base lengths, there is a linear stage for nearly any application. Stages are available for use with 100 V, 200 V, or 400 V power.

RELIABILITY & REPEATABILITY

Yaskawa has eliminated gears, belts, and screws, resulting in a 10 million double-stroke design life.

Sigma 5 Servo Products

Yaskawa’s broad range of Sigma 5 servos can be matched with single-axis or multi-axis machine controllers for a system solution with the highest quality and reliability in the business.

  • The Servopack is fully digital, networkable amplifier with modular connection to single-axis controls. 30 watt to 55 kW power range with 100-480 VAC operation.
  • Sigma-5 rotary servo motors feature a wide range of outputs from 50W – 15kW. Both low and medium inertia models are available with 20-bit absolute encoders standard on all models.
  • Direct drive technology eliminates backlash, reduces the number of mechanical components, and provides a stiff mechanical system for highly dynamic applications.
  • The components include a coil that directly drives the load and modular magnet tracks that allow almost unlimited machine length.

 

Machine Controllers

Mpiec series

MPiec Series

Sigma-7 SERVOPACKs are fully digital, networkable servo amplifiers that offer the output needed for precise, high speed actuation of one or two axes of servo motor motion. The power options range from 30 watt to 15 kW with 100/200 and 400 VAC operation.

yaskawa MP300iec-RBT

MPiec Robotic Series

The IEC Robot Controller allows programming of Yaskawa delta and articulated robots as well as offers up to 32 axes of motion control while adhering to the IEC61131-3 and PLCopen global programming standards. The IEC Robot Controller utilizes the MP3300iec-RBT controller hardware.

yaskawa MPiec 5 series

MPiec 5-Axis Series

Along with the use of the 5-Axis Simultaneous Control Toolbox, the IEC 5-Axis Simultaneous Control Toolbox, the IEC 5-Axis 5-Axis Simultaneous Control G-Code controller allows the running of G-code with simultaneous interpolation of 5 or 6 axes. This is an export restricted product with the ECCN of 2D002.
