Achieving Operational and Energy Efficiency with Intelligent Motor Control
Increased manufacturing costs and increased competition have made it a business necessity to improve your overall operational and energy efficiency at your manufacturing facilities. You can accomplish this by using Rockwell Automation® Intelligent Motor Control solutions to monitor and protect your motors, enhance motor performance and make your motor systems more reliable and easier to use.
With electric motors as the driving force behind most production output, improved motor control performance and motor efficiency means greater overall production efficiency. The technology behind Intelligent Motor Control — including variable frequency drives, intelligent software and networked motor condition monitoring devices — is capable of providing you with both an immediate and measurable impact on energy use and operational efficiency.
- Energy-efficient Variable Speed Drives
Energy-efficient variable speed drives can significantly reduce the power usage of multiple motors in a factory, reducing energy cost. Rockwell Automation pioneered liquid-cooled variable-speed drives to reduce energy footprint and thermal losses. - Power and Energy Management Solutions (PEMS)
PEMS can help you achieve significant savings from reduced fossil-fuel-based energy usage. PEMS can help reduce operating costs in the face of rising energy costs. - Soft Starters
Potential energy cost savings are made available by improving the efficiency of how energy is delivered to start and run motors. - CENTERLINE® Motor Control Centers with IntelliCENTER® Technology Accurate plant-floor data integrated with accurate control gives users the information they need to make informed business decisions that could lead to greater efficiency. Packaging these devices in motor control centers can help reduce startup and downtime by streamlining component replacement.
You can be a successful manufacturer that's responsible. And a responsible manufacturer that's successful.
Rockwell Automation® offers a comprehensive approach to meeting your sustainability objectives in any facet of your manufacturing. Our approach is specifically designed to help you turn sustainability challenges into business advantages.
