为了提高生产率，制造业继续引入NC机床和机器人以自动化生产地点，并在全球变暖的背景下，实现生产设备的进一步节能已成为挑战。
　IGBT modules, which are a type of power semiconductor, are electronic components that convert voltage, frequency and AC/DC power through switching the power on and off. IGBT-IPM is equipped with a self-protection function to prevent failure due to overcurrent or overheating. For this reason, they are widely used in NC machine tools and industrial robots for production equipment that require high reliability.
　Fuji Electric launched the X Series IGBT-IPM, which incorporates the latest 7th-generation power semiconductor device and contributes to energy savings in production equipment by the industry’s highest class of low loss performance. Mass production of the product starts in December and sales will be expanded globally, focusing mainly in Japan and China and so on, where automation is progressing.

该产品配备了最新的第七代IGBT设备，该设备通过降低设备厚度和表面结构的微型化来实现该行业最高的低损耗性能。在功率半导体中，随着产品的工作温度的升高，开关速度通常会降低，功率损耗增加。但是，使用该产品，通过使用控制IGBT驱动器的IC来降低功率损失，以防止在高温条件下降低开关速度。
　This product reduces power loss during inverter operation by approximately 10% compared to the previous product (V Series IGBT-IPM) and reduces heat generated by power loss. As a result, the footprint area has been reduced by up to 54% compared to the previous product. This contributes to the energy savings and miniaturization of production equipment.

IGBT-IPM配备了IGBT设备的过热保护功能。使用该产品，当IGBT设备的温度超过175°C时，IGBT-IPM会在设备上向控制单元输出警报信号，并停止开关操作以防止IGBT-IPM失败。
　In addition, this product is equipped with the industry's first the warning output function of IGBT chip temperature, which outputs the warning signal when the temperature of the IGBT device exceeds 150 °C. Since switching operation is possible from when the warning signal is output until the temperature reaches 175 °C, where overheat protection is activated, the controller on the equipment can stop the production equipment at any time for maintenance. This enables sudden stoppage of production equipment to be avoided, contributing to stable operation.
