The equipment built by Titan Robotics sets an eye-opening new standard for speed and precision in 3D printing. While the improvement is astounding, the techniques used to achieve it won’t be surprising to anyone familiar with industrial automation. The Titan team applies lessons learned in machine tool production to additive manufacturing, including the replacement of stepper motors and hobbyist controllers with professional Yaskawa motion control.
The aerospace industry will love the new Camarc Additive welding-based additive manufacturing system. This new 3D printing system promises to cut the lead time for airplane component castings from months to hours, while offering a significant savings on expensive metal alloys. The success secret: Camarc’s ultra precise control of welding motion that minimizes post-print machining and fully documents the reliability and safety of the finished airplane part.
The PALLETPOD can quickly automate the stacking of boxes into pallets for shipment. It manages the palletizing task in a smaller footprint, without sacrificing high speed. The biggest challenge that its manufacturer ROI Industries Group faces: building a machine that packaging customers can rely upon, both for the next day and the next two decades. In their view, a packaging automation system centered on Yaskawa products delivers instant precision and long term durability.
The Accu-Kut High Definition Plasma Cutting System is attracting industry attention for the outstanding smoothness and precision of its finished parts. This industry-leading success is gained through an exceptionally rigorous focus on every detail of machine motion. In their view, every single component on that machine must be of the highest quality with the most features possible. Yaskawa's products, ability to interconnect smoothly, and support met those requirements.
Changing a key component supplier in the middle of a pandemic is a tough undertaking for any machine builder. Despite the challenges, the people at Kern Laser Systems were able to make a surprisingly smooth transition with their flagship OptiFlex laser system. A key to success was the precise performance and helpful support of Yaskawa Sigma-7 servo motors and SERVOPACK amplifiers.

A material handling application is generating about $1,500 per year in electrical savings rather than dissipating the regenerative energy as heat. Additional equipment life cycle savings are also anticipated as a result of the simplified electrical and mechanical designs. These benefits are realized because of the application of the U1000 Industrial Matrix Drive.
Compact Stand-Alone Matrix Drives Replace 18-Pulse Drive: A Massachusetts-based municipal water treatment facility needed to upgrade their aging 350HP 18-pulse drives. They turned to a local Yaskawa drives distributor, who recommended a reliable, compact, and cost effective retrofit with Yaskawa’s U1000 Industrial Matrix Drive. This article details the retrofit, as well as the overall design and functionality that made Matrix drives the choice for the retrofit
This case study reviews how Waneshear Technologies. in Ukiah, CA made the switch from hydraulics to Yaskawa servo technology to increase the precision and productivity of their sawmill edging machinery. Written by Hunter Stofferahn, Regional Motion Engineer.
