Reprint of OEE Tactical Brief sponsored by Yaskawa and published in Automation World, Packaging World, and Design World magazines. This is a collection of articles from the three publications combined with Yaskawa written articles to define Overall Equipment Effectiveness and examine methods to increase it through automation.
This white paper discusses the common concerns users have when weighing the decision to install servomotors in place of stepper motors. Some of the key performance characteristics are discussed. To ease the pain of the transition for novice installers, the Sigma-5 Autotuning procedure is proposed and described. Several screenshots of actual response achievable are recorded.
Many Manufacturers Investing Heavily to Improve OEE, but Why and How? Article written by Scott Carlberg and published as part of an Automation World/Packaging World/Design World tactical brief in June 2014
White Paper authored by Michael Miller and Jerry Tyson, Regional Motion Engineering, about important features that you cannot afford to ignore when comparing servos
There are many things to consider when selecting the right servo system for a particular application. This white paper will help with selecting a servo system that will perform at the optimal level for the selected application. It examines 9 important factors that need to be considered to properly size a servo motor.
This white paper reviews how Microlution, Inc. in Irving Park, IL was able to increase performance, throughput, and efficiency on their rotary table design by utilizing Yaskawa direct drive servo technology.
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.

There is always a need to increase production in automation applications. Sometimes achieving improvements requires breaking the process down to its fundamental basics. The science behind the technology of servo-based motion control systems should be considered when attempting to eliminate inefficiencies. Four fundamentals to examine are: Inertia, Resonance, Vibration suppression, and Regeneration
Network reliability plays a key role in optimizing motion system perfomance. Hardware selection is only part of the process. Other choices include the selection of network protocol and topology. This article, written by Michael Miller and Jerry Tyson, provides some suggestions. Originally published in Industrial Ethernet Book, April, 2018

The art of properly selecting the best servo motor for a specific task based on speed, torque and inertia has become so automated that users need only enter a small amount of data to properly select the most appropriate product. This white paper shows how to use Yaskawa's SigmaSelectâ„¢ sizing software to properly select a servo system for a typical ballscrew application.
This document examines direct drive motor technology, compares it in terms of cost and performance with that of a rotary gear motor in an application simulation, then identifies the best applications for direct drive motors.
