Single-Axis Motion Controllers

Yaskawa single-axis controllers, or application modules, integrally mount to Yaskawa amplifiers to add positioning and communication features. This modular approach reduces integration costs by eliminating amplifier to controller wiring and improves performance by distributing position control to the point of the amplifier. The NS300, NS500, and NS600 provide simple positioning driven by digital I/O, serial, or fieldbus communication.The MP940 and LEGEND-MC offer the ultimate flexibility for complex move profiles tightly integrated to machine I/O.
