This video demonstrates Yaskawa's ultra high precision motion control with Sigma-5 servo motors and amplifiers, linear motors, direct drive motors, and MP2000iec controllers connected on a MECHATROLINK network, using the pencil lead demo as a model.
Delta Mod Tech, an innovator in packaging machinery turns to Yaskawa for accurate, reliable motion control. The web converting and packaging machines made by Delta ModTech have a unique modular design that meets the demands of many technologically advanced industries, including medical, pharmaceutical, CPG, cosmetic, security and RFID. Yaskawa servos and motion control systems deliver the precise and adjustable registration needed with printed material, plus the advantages of easy system setup and long-term reliability.
Machines that blister pack pharmaceuticals need exceptional versatility to handle a constantly changing array of plastics, foils, papers and blister sizes, while maintaining the high output that the industry’s exacting customers demand. PharmaWorks achieves these aims with packaging machines that replace outdated pulleys, belts and driveshafts with the precision of Yaskawa servos and motion control systems. The result is a more reliable machine that easily integrates existing PLCs into a fast, efficient and flexible motion-centered control system.
Learn how Pac Tec Packaging of Janesville, WI, put H-Bot robotic automation to work in a new machine that manufactures single serve beverage brewing cups.

High volume blister packing of expensive medications takes a machine with an exceptional ability to adjust for different materials and operating speeds. PharmaWorks is setting a new world standard for throughput and quality in this challenging market, with help from Yaskawa servo systems and motion controllers.
Creating extremely small components calls for a special breed of machining equipment. We look at a Chicagoland company that designs and builds this specialized machinery, with a focus on a technology secret that maximizes the machine’s compactness, speed and quality.
Visitors to the 2018 RAPID+TCT additive manufacturing show saw plenty of impressive 3D printers, but one stood out for productivity. A printer built by Titan Robotics attracted attention for exceptional printing speed, thanks in part to servo systems and a motion controller from Yaskawa. The result was a printing speed of 350 mm/sec, with non-printing travel times of 1 m/sec.

Maximum speed is mission critical for the owners of automated crosscut saws from Eagle Machinery & Supply. More speed means faster output of valuable hardwood lumber, and more profitability. Yaskawa servo systems help Eagle’s Talon 3000 saw cut an imperfection out of a board in the time it takes to blink an eye, keeping productivity high while preserving the appearance of a beautiful hardwood.
How to use the digital product configurator for Servo Motors and Motion Control products with instant previews, configurable product options, and 3D CAD downloads. This new tool accelerates the design process and enables users to quickly find, configure and download a 3D part model on www.yaskawa.com. Built by CADENAS PARTsolutions
View Yaskawa’s Singular Control at work, as a single MP3300iec machine controller operates three completely different types of robotic mechanisms. The robot arm, gantry and delta robots use the same programming function blocks in the same MotionWorks IEC software, making it possible to operate multiple mechanisms at the same time or switch from one robot to another within the same work day.
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.
For designers, builders and users of automated packaging equipment, the action of the Yaskawa Packaging Automation demo is more than merely an eye-catching spectacle. The Yaskawa demo shows off the power of Singular Control, the ability to program every element of a multi-robot work cell with a single Yaskawa machine controller. Using familiar IEC programming, packaging professionals can create new machinery with ease and change configurations without rewriting software.
Knight Global wanted to enter the market for low cost material handling hoists, but they weren’t willing to compromise their reputation for servo-driven reliability and ultra smooth operation. This proved difficult until they found a servo system manufacturer with the best combination of performance, compact size and affordability. They also gained a bonus: a supplier willing to sit side-by-side through the complex process of software development.
