Energy
Consumption data continuously collected from:
- Inverter Drives
- Electricity Meters at asset or line level
- Gas or Fuel Oil meters (on steam-heated processes)
Operations
Capture key operating data directly from process control systems:
- Running speeds
- Short-stops & Fault codes
- Temperatures
Maintenance
Monitor leading indicators of failure:
- Current & Torque: Conveyor Drive & Gearbox loading
- Ultrasound: Conveyor drum bearings
- Vibration: Gearboxes & Fans - Lubrication status, bearing wear and asset stability
- Oil Condition: Gearboxes
Energy
1 tonne/hour oven will consume at least £400,000 of energy per year.
Mechanical & control issues, combined with insulation breakdown, can easily reduce efficiency by 10%, increasing energy
cost by £40,000 per annum
Operations
Understand causes of quality issues and avoid scrapped batches of product, often costing up to £3,000 or more.
Maintenance
Preventing a catastrophic breakdown will avoid spares spend and production downtime.
A typical breakdown would be 48 hours lost time as the oven cools, the repair is executed, and the oven brought back to temperature. At an operating and opportunity cost of £1,000 per hour, such a breakdown results in a £48,000 loss.
