Motor Controller for Manufacturing Facilities

Manufacturing sites typically run a wide spread of motors, driving everything from conveyors and extraction systems to pumps and general plant equipment. Many of these motors were specified to cope with an occasional worst case demand, which means for most of their operating life they're running well below that capacity while still drawing power as though they weren't.

Integra from Suresense closes that gap by continuously matching motor power output to the real production load, rather than the fixed rating the motor was originally sized for. It converts the motor into its own load sensor, adjusting the energy supplied roughly every 10 milliseconds so it always reflects what the task actually requires at that moment.

The savings this produces vary by application, generally landing between 10% and 40%, with the biggest gains showing up on motors running the most variable duty cycles. Because Integra is fitted without altering the underlying process or equipment, manufacturing facilities can apply it across multiple motors on site without disrupting production.

Combined with the reduced mechanical wear from its soft start function, it's a practical way to bring both energy costs and maintenance costs down at the same time.

Suresense can carry out a site assessment across a manufacturing facility's motor fleet, identifying which units are running the most variable duty cycles and therefore stand to gain the most from fitting Integra.
