It’s estimated that the amount of electrical power used to generate compressed air represents 10% of all industrial energy. In some sectors, this proportion is known to be even higher. So, it’s clear that a reduction in power consumption will be significant.
Reducing the resultant Carbon footprint is a responsibility of everyone and with 2030 targets on Green House Gas emissions, we should all contribute. Where compressed air is concerned, when we implement the right changes, the savings for the environment can be huge.
There are many long-established ways to review and improve compressed air efficiency within the factory. Although useful, in many cases things like leak detection are simply reactive to the accepted norms. 4-bar factory offers a pro-active approach.
SMC has already taken the lead in reducing pressures in our own factories and is committed to helping others to do the same. Join us and benefit from lower energy consumption, reduced CO2 emissions and operating costs whilst boosting your corporate profile.
"Not so long ago, proposing energy-saving solutions in factories were not given much emphasis. Today, as long as those gains are massive, quick, and risk-free, it's a topic taken very seriously. To reduce a reliance on the compressor room, it's not just about reducing pressure: it's really about achieving harmony between machine demand and flow management in factories."
