Our customers tell us that quality means no product hardware failures. Now, that's a gift that
keeps on giving.
When you take Yaskawa drives out of the box, you can count on them to work. In fact, Yaskawa
products have a meantime-between-failure rate (MTBF) of up to 28 years. That means your
engineers can spec Yaskawa and never have to worry. Just program, plug and play.
Get what you want, every time. Call Yaskawa.
