ABB modernises Swiss paper machine as model for energy efficiency
ABB has helped Model Group, a packaging manufacturer headquartered in Switzerland, modernise one of its key paper machines with energy-efficient motors and state-of-the-art variable speed drives (VSDs). The result is increased productivity and reliability, together with a reduction in energy consumption of up to 900,000 kilowatt hours (kWh) a year – equivalent to 200 four-person Swiss households, with a projected payback in less than five years.
