Power Consumption Reduction in Gloves and Socks Manufacturing
Power Consumption Reduction in Gloves and Socks Manufacturing:
Client Background and Problem:
Our client, a prominent manufacturer of gloves and socks in Tirupur, was facing high power consumption due to the use of 0.75 kW suction blowers in each of their 15 production machines. These blowers were used to reverse the socks and gloves after production. The client sought a solution to reduce their energy costs while maintaining or improving performance.
Solution Provided by Cleantek: After analyzing the client's requirements, Cleantek proposed a more efficient solution. We removed all the 0.75 kW blowers from the machines and replaced them with a single Cleantek-made 3.7 kW capacity suction unit. This unit, with a suction pressure system of 500 mm of WG, was connected to all 15 production machines.
Measurable Results and Outcomes: The new system performed exceptionally well, leading to significant energy savings and reduced noise levels. Specifically, the client reported:
A substantial power savings of 7.55 kW per hour.
Noticeably lower noise levels, enhancing the working environment.
Enhanced operational efficiency without compromising the quality or speed of the production process.
The client was highly satisfied with the performance of the new suction system, noting the considerable reduction in energy costs and improved workplace conditions.
