142971-1

The 142971-1 model from Yaskawa’s XRC series functions as a rack-mount controller capable of managing a maximum of eight axes. It features a sophisticated 32-bit RISC architecture that provides efficient and reliable computing power suited for various automation tasks. This controller allows for different types of path interpolation, such as joint, linear, circular, and spline, enabling precise motion control across multiple applications.

Power requirements for the Yaskawa 142971-1 are set between 200 and 240 VAC, operating at either 50 or 60 Hz. It holds a power rating of 1.5 kW specifically designed for servo systems. Safety is prioritized with a dual-channel hardware safety standard, which ensures secure operation in demanding environments.

In terms of input/output capabilities, the controller offers a standard I/O configuration consisting of 40 digital inputs, 24 digital outputs, and 16 relays. For further expansion, it includes three slots that allow for an additional 256 I/O points, offering scalability for growing system demands. Feedback is provided through absolute encoders, which enhance positional accuracy during operations.

The program storage capacity accommodates up to 5,000 steps and 3,000 instructions, allowing for complex programming requirements without compromising performance. Interfacing with the system is facilitated by a teach pendant that features a 5.7-inch LCD display with the ability to show 40 characters across 12 lines, streamlining user interaction.

Communication options for this controller include RS-232C and a dedicated flash memory slot. Designed to endure varying environmental conditions, the 142971-1 operates efficiently in temperatures from 0 to 45 °C and humidity levels of up to 90%. This combination of features positions the Yaskawa 142971-1 controller as a highly capable solution for sophisticated industrial automation needs.
