At 10 a.m. on December 23, 2022, Yaskawa Electric held an online new product launch conference and officially released the next-generation servo products Σ-X series and the new data collection controller YRM-X. Advanced and optimized motion performance and digital solutions starting with servos are the two main highlights of this new product.
In order to achieve the goal of industrial automation, Yaskawa Electric has launched a new Σ-X series of AC servo products based on the i³-Mechatronics concept.
After 8 years of painstaking research, as an iterative product of Σ-7, Σ-X not only improves sports performance, but also better integrates into the i3-Mechatronics system, strengthens the flexible use of data perception function, and brings many surprises to everyone in the product.
● Performance upgrades
In terms of motors, the maximum speed has been increased to 7000 min-1, and the encoder resolution has been expanded to 26 bits, which is equivalent to four times that of the original. On the basis of Σ-7, the environmental resistance is further strengthened.
In terms of drives, the speed frequency has been increased. For device monitoring, a fault detection function is added. The redundancy monitoring and operation status monitoring capabilities have been optimized. For the equipment mechanism that was difficult to debug, the functions of "no debugging, servo automatic debugging, load change compensation control, and visualization of debugging results" have been added, making the debugging process easier to use.
● Communication optimization
The Σ-X uses the Σ-Link II, which has a higher transmission efficiency, to communicate between the driver and the motor encoder. While maintaining high-performance, high-reliability communication, the hybrid connection of servo motors and sensors is further realized, simplifying wiring within the device.
● MECHATROLINK-4 ONLINE
The sigma-X driver will support M-4 communication. Compared with the M-3, the M-4 not only improves the transmission efficiency, but also enables decentralized control of equipment (supports modular systems) and supports IP communication. At the same time, the overall equipment wiring is reduced, which is convenient for unified data management.
● Chip upgrades
The X series is equipped with a new generation of custom SOC, equipped with a dedicated IP CORE for servo control, which makes the memory and memory larger and the main frequency higher.
● The model is simplified, and the function is integrated and upgraded
The motor is no longer divided into absolute and incremental types, and some specific FT functions are integrated into the general-purpose drive, which increases the added value of the product.
At the same time, in order to enable customers to use the new generation of products with more peace of mind, the warranty period of Σ-X will be extended to three years, which is due to Yaskawa's confidence in the product and sincerity to customers.
Since its founding, Yaskawa has been committed to the concept of "Technology as a Founding" and has been contributing to the development of society by providing high-quality products and strong technologies to markets in many countries around the world. In the future, Yaskawa will continue to work together with you with the mission of "serving human needs and protecting the global environment".
