Stories of Transformation with ABB Variable Speed Drives
Story 1: Energy Savings for a Paper Mill
A paper mill implemented ABB VSDs on its papermaking machines, resulting in a 15% reduction in energy consumption. By optimizing the speed of the motors driving the machines, the mill saved millions in annual energy costs.
How to Achieve:
* Conduct an energy audit to identify potential savings.
* Install VSDs on motors that operate under variable loads.
* Implement sensors to monitor energy usage and adjust VSD settings accordingly.
Story 2: Precise Speed Control for a Pharmaceutical Plant
A pharmaceutical plant used ABB VSDs to control the speed of mixers in a critical process. The precise speed regulation ensured consistent product quality and reduced downtime caused by speed fluctuations.
How to Achieve:
* Determine the required speed range and accuracy for the process.
* Select VSDs with the appropriate power rating and precision.
* Fine-tune VSD settings to achieve the desired speed control.
Story 3: Reduced Maintenance for a Cement Plant
A cement plant replaced traditional starters with ABB VSDs on conveyor motors, leading to reduced mechanical stress on the motors and conveyors. This resulted in a 20% reduction in maintenance costs and improved plant uptime.
How to Achieve:
* Replace traditional starters with VSDs on motors that experience frequent starts and stops.
* Set VSD limits to protect motors from overloads and temperature rise.
* Implement predictive maintenance strategies to monitor VSD performance and identify potential issues early.
