How Yaskawa Is Simplifying Modern Automation
At Automate 2026, Yaskawa Motion demonstrated how integrated machine control is helping manufacturers simplify automation. Rather than relying on separate systems for motion, logic, safety, and networking, today’s machine builders are moving toward unified control platforms that improve performance, simplify integration, and support future expansion. Here’s a closer look at several technologies driving that evolution.
Unified Control with iCube Control™
Yaskawa’s iCube Control platform brings motion control, machine logic, functional safety, networking, and robotics together within a single EtherCAT-based architecture. By reducing the need for multiple independent control systems, manufacturers can simplify machine design while improving performance and scalability.
Flexible CNC with Compass™ 2
Compass™ 2 expands the iCube ecosystem with CNC software designed for modern machine builders. Combined with the iC9200 machine controller, it delivers industrial PC flexibility alongside real-time motion control for demanding CNC applications.
High-Performance Motion with Sigma-X
The Sigma-X servo platform continues to expand with additional motors, SERVOPACKs, safety options, and software enhancements. These technologies help manufacturers achieve greater precision, faster response, and more flexible machine designs across a wide range of applications.
