Yaskawa Inverters
Yaskawa Inverters cover every automation application need in the industrial plant. These AC drives incorporate the latest technological advancements in AC motor speed control, made possible by experience and dedication to quality in design and manufacturing.
You may not hear the word “AC drive or inverter” so often, but in fact, it is an indispensable product that supports our daily lives. It is widely used in household appliances such as air conditioners and refrigerators as well as in social infrastructures such as elevators, escalators, trains, cranes, fans, and pumps, and also in factories that manufacture printing machinery, textile machinery, rubber machinery, and other materials. In a simple term, AC drive is a device that controls the rotation speed of a motor. Since the motor is controlled as needed so that it does not rotate more than necessary, power consumption is much lower than when the motor alone is used to operate the equipment. This results in energy saving and CO₂ reduction.
Since 1974, when Yaskawa shipped the world’s first AC drive transistor, total shipments of AC drive reached 30 million units in 2021. We have developed many world’s first technologies such as vector control, digital control, IGBT (Insulated Gate Bipolar Transistor) drive, and AC/AC conversion. These technologies have become widely accepted as the de facto standard, making life more convenient for people around the world and contributing to increased productivity and energy conservation at factories.
