A new range of AC Servo Drives which provide consistently simple and fast commissioning, maximum machine throughput and outstanding operational reliability has been introduced by motion control specialist Yaskawa. The compact Sigma-7 servos (200V Series and 400V Series) cover a wide power range from 50W up to 15kW in various formats with the largest motors offering a continuous torque of 95Nm and a peak 224Nm.
They represent a powerful response to the demands of today’s production engineering machine builders and end-users in packaging plants, semi-conductor manufacturing, digital printing and wood processing. The Servo Drives are initially released with embedded EtherCAT and Mechatrolink3 communications with further connectivity options to follow.
