When your servo drives and motors become “end-of-life,” finding reliable replacements is difficult, expensive, and slow. If your machine frame is still mechanically sound but your electronics are failing, a Yaskawa Sigma-7 servo system upgrade is the most cost-effective way to restore reliability and improve performance. At CNC Parts Dept., Inc., we specialize in replacing aging servo systems with modern Yaskawa technology, ensuring your machine stays on the production line for years to come.
Why Upgrade to Yaskawa Sigma-7?
Yaskawa Sigma-7 drives and motors are the industry standard for high-performance motion control. Upgrading your legacy system offers several immediate advantages:
- Universal Compatibility: Yaskawa Sigma-7 drives integrate seamlessly with Fagor controllers and most other major CNC systems using analog or EtherCAT communication.
- Eliminate Obsolescence: Moving to current-generation hardware means parts are in stock, fully supported, and easy to source if you ever need a spare.
- Superior Performance: Benefit from modern vibration suppression, higher encoder resolution, and faster response times.
- Flexible Implementation: Our technicians can replace one axis at a time to minimize downtime, or upgrade the entire system in approximately 3 days.
- Reduced Operating Costs: Modern Yaskawa Sigma-7 motors are often more energy-efficient and cost significantly less than sourcing “new-old-stock” legacy parts.
The CNCPD Retrofit Process
We provide a complete technical roadmap for every machine retrofit. Our technician-first philosophy ensures that your new Yaskawa system is professionally commissioned and tuned for the specific mechanical signature of your router.
- Evaluation: We review your current motor specs, drive requirements, and controller communication to ensure a perfect match.
- Installation: Our field technicians can perform the hardware swap on-site, including necessary wiring and mounting adjustments.
- Tuning & Commissioning: We professionally tune your new drives, optimizing them for the mechanical resonances of your machine.
