How Siemens Motors Improves Energy Efficiency in Industrial Applications
Energy consumption is not a line item on an expense report anymore. It’s an important parameter for the competitiveness of modern industries. Because electric motors represent nearly 70% of industrial power, the drives must be efficient. This article shows how Siemens motors use advanced engineering from better magnetic materials to optimised rotor designs to reduce energy wastage. See the technical synergy between motors and variable frequency drives, calculate the utility bill impact of IE3 and IE4 standards and help you choose the right equipment for long-term viability. Key Takeaways: Siemens Motors Operational Savings: Purchase price is a fraction of lifecycle cost; Switching to high-efficiency motors pays for itself in less than two years through electricity savings. Technological Edge: Copper rotors and precision-engineered air gaps in the Siemens Simotics range reduce internal losses much better than standard motors. System Integration: Siemens moto...
