Yaskawa CACR-SR20BB1AM-Y135 Digital Servo Drive

The CACR-SR20BB1AM-Y135 is a 2.0 kW digital AC servo drive from Yaskawa’s classic CACR-SR (VS-800) series, designed for Yasnac CNC systems and high-precision analog-controlled automation. It uses internal forced-air cooling, delivers 18.8 A continuous / 45 A peak current, and supports analog ±10 V speed/torque commands. The "M" denotes absolute encoder interface, and Y135 is a Yasnac CNC-optimized parameter set for seamless integration with legacy machine tools.
