Series-level lifecycle status from Yaskawa's own published sources — Yaskawa Europe's formal discontinuation notices, the Yaskawa Robotics EMEA spare-parts availability chart, and Yaskawa's published transition and conversion guides — for Motoman robot controller generations (ERC, MRC, XRC and their ATEX/coating variants, NX100/NXC, DX100, DX200, YRC1000), Sigma servo (the Sigma-II to Sigma-5 conversion path and the Sigma-V SD series' EU phase-out), the V1000 AC drive line (transition guide to GA500), and the Yaskawa Europe Drives Motion Controls control lines (SLIO, 300S+, Profichip SNAP+, Box PC, HMI accessories), plus a smartPanel certification status note. Yaskawa's robot chart is a spare-parts guarantee table: it prints, per generation, the start of model production, the model production stop, the Japan new-spare-parts availability year, and the EMEA extended availability — and Yaskawa guarantees spare parts from Japan for at least ten years after production ceases.
The time-critical record in this file is the Sigma-V SD Series in Europe: under EU Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 the CACP-JU regeneration converters, CACR-JU servo amplifiers, SGMGV motors, UAKAJ spindle motors and the 8SKIT650/030 item become "Phase out" from 19 January 2027, last orders were 30 June 2026 — already passed — and Yaskawa publishes no 1:1 replacement. Behind it, NX100 / NXC robot-controller spare parts are discontinued: production stopped in 2010 and the EMEA extended availability guaranteed until December 2024 has ended, leaving Yaskawa's overhaul and exchange programmes as the published mitigations — except NX100-generation painting robots, whose discontinuation is expected at the end of 2026.
Honesty notes: YRC1000 and the DX200 ATEX/coating variant are still in production in Yaskawa's own chart — do not retire them alongside DX200 (production stop 2021, Japan guarantee to 2032). The 300S+ family is not discontinued — only its 314SC DPM Laserline variant is — and the mainstream Sigma-5 (SGDV) line is not discontinued; only the Sigma-V SD variant phases out, in the EU only. The smartPanel DNV notice is a certification change, not a product discontinuation: Yaskawa states product availability is unchanged. And for the whole 20 May 2026 Europe controls cluster — SLIO IM 053IP, the Laserline CPU, the SNAP+ ASICs, the Box PC and the HMI accessories — Yaskawa's published replacement answer is, verbatim, that there will be no replacement.
Verification standard: official Yaskawa sources first (Yaskawa Europe discontinuation/product-change PDFs, the Robotics EMEA spare-parts addendum, Yaskawa America transition guides; two Yaskawa-authored guides were read via third-party mirrors and are labelled as mirrors in the file). Dates are reproduced exactly as published and left blank where no source opened published one; no dates, part numbers, or successors are inferred. Two records (Sigma-II, V1000) are migration-path records whose guides publish no discontinuation dates — their date cells are blank in the full file. The robot chart's rows are reproduced verbatim in the full file's migration notes, and the one internal tension in it (DX200 ATEX: still in production, Japan availability printed 2037) is flagged, not resolved.
| Product Family | Catalog/Series | Lifecycle Status | Discontinuation or milestone date | Recommended Replacement / Migration Path |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Motoman robot controllers | ERC controller generation | Production ended; spare-parts guarantee ended (Yaskawa Robotics EMEA spare-parts availability chart, in the NX100/NXC addendum) | Start of model production 1988; model production stop 1994; spare parts availability (Japan) 2004; EMEA extended availability 2005 | No successor named in the chart; Yaskawa offers overhaul / exchange programmes and modernisation via its TCS Sales department (per the addendum) |
| Motoman robot controllers | NX100 / NXC controller generation | Spare parts discontinued — the subject of the Yaskawa EMEA addendum: "spare parts for the NX100 and NXC robot/controller generation will no longer be available"; the series "was already discontinued in 2010" and the guarantee ran "until December 2024, exceeding the originally promised warranty period" | Start of model production 2005; model production stop 2010; spare parts availability (Japan) 2020; EMEA extended availability 2024 (guaranteed until December 2024 per the addendum text) | No successor named in the addendum; Yaskawa offers an overhaul programme (refurbished manipulators / control systems), an exchange programme (buy-back of old manipulators and control systems against a replacement), and component repair incl. teach boxes |
| AC servo drives & motors (Sigma-V SD) | SIGMA-V SD Series — Power Regeneration Converter CACP-JU•••••; Servo Amplifier CACR-JU•••••; Servo Motors SGMGV-••D8M••; Spindle Motors UAKAJ-••••••••; others 8SKIT650/030 | Phase out announced (Europe) — Yaskawa Europe Discontinuation notice, SIGMA-V SD Series, 06/2026 V1: due to EU Machinery Regulation (EU) 2023/1230 (in full force January 20th, 2027) the listed products "will no longer be available on the European market" and become "Phase out" from January 19th, 2027 onward | Last orders have to be placed until June 30th, 2026; phase out from January 19th, 2027 onward (Europe) | No 1:1 replacement product at present (per the notice: "At present, we are unable to provide 1:1 replacement product. For possible alternative solutions please contact your Yaskawa representative.") |
| AC drives (V1000 → GA500) | V1000 series AC drives (CIMR-VU) | Legacy — Yaskawa America publishes a V1000 to GA500 Transition Guide (PL.GA500.01) for "selecting and replacing" V1000 drives; no discontinuation notice with dates was located | GA500 (catalog code GA50U) — model-for-model selection in the guide: V1000 240 V single-phase 1/8 to 5 HP / three-phase 1/8 to 25 HP and 480 V 1/2 to 25 HP map to the GA500 ranges (240 V single-phase 1/6 to 5 HP, three-phase 1/6 to 30 HP; 480 V 1/2 to 40 HP); the guide lists only comparable models | |
| Controls — SLIO I/O system | SLIO Interface Module IM 053IP — 053-1IP01-1 (EtherNet/IP slave; SAP No. 10113889) | Discontinued with immediate effect (Yaskawa Europe discontinuation notice, 20/05/2026 V1): "discontinuing the product 053-1IP01-1 with immediate effect. It will remain available for purchase while supplies last. No further production is possible." | Notice dated 20/05/2026 (V1); discontinued with immediate effect; available while supplies last | No replacement — "Please note that there will be no replacement for this discontinued item." |
