Yaskawa CP-9200SH/SVA High-Performance Motion Control System
Yaskawa CP-9200SH/SVA High-Performance Motion Control System
The Yaskawa CP-9200SH/SVA represents a high-end integrated solution within the Control Pack (CP) series.
1 The CP-9200SH is the core controller chassis/system, while the SVA (Servo Adapter) refers to the specialized motion control module designed to provide high-speed, synchronized control of multiple servo axes.
This system was engineered to bridge the gap between high-speed logic (PLC functions) and precision motion control, making it a staple in complex Japanese and global manufacturing machinery.

Product Advantages and Features
Integrated Motion & Logic: Eliminates the communication lag between a separate PLC and Motion Controller by housing both functions on the same high-speed backplane.
Superior Synchronization: The SVA modules allow for complex camming, gearing, and circular interpolation across multiple axes with microsecond-level jitter.
Modular Architecture: Users can mix and match CPU modules, SVA motion modules, and communication modules (like the 218IF Ethernet) based on the application’s scale.
Industrial Hardening: Designed for high-heat and high-vibration environments typical of steel mills and heavy assembly plants.
Advanced Diagnostics: Real-time monitoring of servo lag, torque values, and system errors via the MPE720 software suite.

Application Cases
The CP-9200SH/SVA is typically found in “Master Controller” roles:
High-Speed Packaging: Coordinating multiple servos for pick-and-place, wrapping, and labeling at speeds exceeding several hundred cycles per minute.
Steel Processing: Controlling the tension and positioning in flying shear applications or complex coil winding.
Flat Panel Display (FPD) Manufacturing: Precision glass handling and vacuum robot control where smooth motion is critical to prevent product breakage.
Multi-Axis CNC Specialty Machines: Custom-built machining centers that require more flexibility than a standard closed CNC system provides.
