Tools, servo drives and frequency converters
Yaskawa machine tool products, as well as all Yaskawa Mechatronic products such as servo drives and frequency converters are being offered with training by Yaskawa Engineering Europe.
The new branch office is the first step in an EEU Group expansion strategy, focussed on offering total solutions and lifetime care at the local level.
The office will provide the complete range of EEU services, including after-sales and engineering support for machine tools and general 'mechatronics.' Existing Yaskawa customers are assured of continuity, since experienced engineers and service technicians from Yaskawa's previous Italian service partner company, Tema, will staff the office.
Service manager, Maurizio Dinatale, 40, founded Tema in 1999, following 10 years of machine tool service experience.
He is joined by other ex-Tema members: including service engineer Marco Franzese, 33, who had nine years of machine tool service experience before joining TEMA in 2001.

Italy is now the largest single European sales market for Yaskawa's Mechatronics products, including inverter drives, servo drives, and machine controllers.
Since the products play such a crucial role in a wide range of applications across industry, EEU's engineering support service is geared to providing customer solutions, with the shortest possible 'downtime': keeping plants productive and machinery running whilst problems are being solved.
With some 220mē devoted to warehouse, product testing and an emergency repair workshop, the Italian office has state-of-the-art facilities, well prepared to handle any kind of service request.
In the case of an emergency breakdown, EEU Italy is ready to provide on-site service within 24 hours.
