YASKAWA Electric Corporation operates globally, focusing primarily on motion control, robotics, and sophisticated system engineering, alongside other business ventures. The company produces and distributes an extensive selection of AC drives, including general-purpose, specialized, and system-integrated models, as well as units designed for regenerative energy saving, and permanent magnet (PM) motors. These components are integral to various applications, from household appliances like air conditioners and refrigerators, to essential social infrastructure such as elevators, escalators, trains, cranes, fans, and pumps. They also power industrial machinery used in factories for printing, textile, and rubber manufacturing. YASKAWA's advanced product line extends to servo systems, offering rotary and direct drive servo motors, linear motors and sliders, precision machine controllers, positioning sensor encoders, and high-performance servo amplifiers. These technologies are critical for industrial robots, semiconductor and flat panel display manufacturing equipment, machine tools, and metal working machinery. Moreover, the company is a leading manufacturer of robots for a wide array of tasks. This includes robots for arc and spot welding, handling and assembly, collaborative work, biomedical applications, palletizing, press handling, sealing, cutting, laser machining, deburring, painting, and specialized transfer robots for glass substrates and semiconductor wafers. These robotic solutions are deployed in areas such as semiconductor wafer conveyance, various welding operations, material handling, assembly, and palletizing. The corporation also supplies industrial system electrical products, including medium-voltage and system-specific AC drives, and advanced system controllers. These are utilized across heavy industries like iron and steel, environmental applications such as water and wastewater treatment, crane operations, and diverse manufacturing sectors including paper-making, film production, port cargo handling, fiber processing, and printing. For energy efficiency and generation, YASKAWA provides equipment like photovoltaic (PV) inverters, systems for large wind turbines, control mechanisms for small-scale power generation, and motor drive systems for electric vehicles. These offerings contribute significantly to photovoltaic and large-scale/small-scale wind power generation initiatives, as well as the development of electric vehicles. Founded in 1915, YASKAWA Electric Corporation is headquartered in Kitakyushu, Japan.
