Improving the energy efficiency in the production processes of Almott Ltd.

About this project

<p>The project envisages the implementation of energy-saving measures and recommendations for energy savings. The measures provide for the replacement of three old lathes with one new lathe and two old machining centers with one new center. This will lead to expected savings of 254406 kWh of electricity. An element of the project is the utilization of waste heat from the working chambers of the metalworking machines, which reaches 60°C when the machines are in operation mode. The heated air is purified from mechanical particles and impurities from the evaporation of the coolant, and then it will be fed to heat the impregnation baking chamber. This will lead to using the waste heat, which will help the inlet air flow in at about 40°C higher temperatures and will save electricity. The project envisages the introduction of a system for monitoring the electricity needed. This will help with continuously registering and storing data regarding the needed electricity. Analyzing the information received from the electricity monitoring system will help make the right technological and managerial decisions leading to saving electricity.</p>
