The concept of Matrix drives—the process of direct AC-to-AC conversion—has been around for years, but advancements in technology have now brought that idea into practice. Christopher Jaszczolt, from the Matrix drives product management team for Yaskawa America, Inc., talks about how improvements in technology offer new opportunities to utilize this technology in practice.
This announcement discusses the software upgrade to Version 36 (V36) that further separates iQpump from the competition. Effective today, Version 35 software will apply to new orders for iQpump (stand alone and configured). Version 36 includes new features.

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.
With internal permanent magnet motors, the high frequency signal injection method can deliver precise speed control without the need for a feedback sensor.
Tailoring motor speed to the task offers a variety of important benefits. One page article published in October 2011 issue of Chemical Processing magazine.
Yaskawa America, Inc. - Drives & Motion Division is changing the way in which it manufactures its drives. The company is beginning with a new assembly process for the V1000-series ac micro drives. Production equipment being installed this fall will contain more automation, including MOTOMAN robotics. The drives will be manufactured by robotics cell production, a process capable of producing three million units per year. That's more than a 50% increase compared to traditional methods. Additionally, they meet the regional needs of Europe, North America, and Asia.
Advanced Motion Control Adds Efficiency to Solar Manufacturing Processes. Four page article written by Scott Carlberg and published in September 2010 issue of Design World magazine.

There are well-known benefits of using variable-frequency drives (VFDs) to reduce energy consumed by induction motors. Federal, state and local agencies in the U.S. now all give incentives for installing VFDs, as do many utilities. The energy saved by using VFDs can be compelling, and taking advantage of these programs can add considerably to their savings.
