Yaskawa U1000 Matrix Drive Asphalt Transport Retrofit Case Study

This case study details how Yaskawa U1000 Industrial Matrix Drives were retrofitted into an asphalt mass transfer system at Gallagher Asphalt, recovering regenerative energy to save approximately $1,500 per year in electrical costs. The direct AC-to-AC conversion technology eliminates traditional dynamic braking components, improving energy efficiency and reducing maintenance in the motor-driven transporter.
