What would be valid reasons to choose an ab drive over a comparable yaskawa drive on a ab system with contrologix?
Both have ethernet ip. Price is not any issue or consideration in any way just features and performance.
I would say the ab drive is better because it has AOI and diagnostics can be mapped into the hmi and plc with less work.
I know ab is very good about selling individual parts and boards for their drive and also providing service manuals to do in house drive repairs but i do not know how or how well yaskawa handles this?
Other opinions and comparisons?
