Energy efficiency and cost savings
Variable frequency drives are capable of delivering significant energy savings and reducing costs for organizations. By allowing precise control of motor speed, VFDs can optimize motor performance for different applications and workload requirements. This leads to substantial energy cost reductions compared to constant speed motors which operate at full power all the time irrespective of the actual needs.
VFDs play a big role in enhancing process efficiency through features like soft start acceleration and deceleration. This reduces mechanical wear and tear on motor components extending their lifespan. Fewer replacements mean lesser maintenance and repair costs. VFD controlled motors also experience less thermal cycling that leads to less motor winding failures. The ability to control torque output helps protect cost sensitive machinery from damage. Overall, the total cost of ownership is lower with VFDs over the long run due to energy and maintenance saving benefits.
Opportunity: Increasing demand for automation and process control
There is growing emphasis on automation and digitization of industrial processes across various sectors in North America. Manufacturing industries are automating discrete and continuous production lines to improve product quality, maximize output and gain competitive advantage. Process industries require tight control of parameters like pressure, flow, temperature for safety and regulatory compliance. VFDs are a crucial part of implementing automation solutions as they enable remote centralized control and monitoring of multiple motor-driven systems over industrial networks.
VFDs facilitate precision process control capabilities through dynamic motor speed variation. This allows manufacturers to finely tune energy-intensive operations like heating, cooling, mixing, and grinding according to real-time production demands. Automating these processes with VFDs enhances overall equipment effectiveness. Industries are also installing VFDs for energy management and optimization purposes in building automation applications like HVAC, lighting and refrigeration systems. The demand is further stimulated by the need to reduce human intervention in manufacturing and streamline plant floor operations through industrial internet of things technologies. All these trends point towards a growing market share of variable frequency drives.
