WEG solution on a ship for the safe transport of oil
[ad_1]
With equipment for the most diverse applications, WEG has integrated solutions for the naval segment. They are state-of-the-art, reliable, efficient, flexible and technological products and services. In addition, it has alternatives that help in the sustainability of the client’s business. It was with this objective in mind that WEG participated in the design of an oil tanker designed by Agemar, a company specialized in highly complex logistics operations, which developed a ship with the objective of ensuring greater safety in fuel transport.
The ship has a double bottom and side and in case of leakage, the fuel is inside the second hull, protecting the environment and ensuring transport and supply process even more safe. The ship also has modern navigation instruments and certifications issued by international entities. With 40 meters long, it has the capacity to transport 440 thousand liters.
For this oil tanker, WEG has supplied two synchronous alternators of the GTK line, frame 280, 90 kVA, responsible for generating energy for the entire ship. They are special equipment, with IP56 degree of protection, developed for aggressive environments, where the product robustness and quality are determining factors for the application. With cast iron frame, it guarantees protection against weather and corrosion, ensuring longer life for the alternators.

WEG supplies refrigeration project solution for underground mine
[ad_1]
Howden South America, in partnership with WEG, are supplying the refrigeration project (phase 1) for Caraíba Mine in Jaguarari, state of Bahia, Brazil. Supported by Cooling System Howden technology, the project ensures safe and economical underground refrigeration. Howden counted on WEG’s key participation with emphasis on an E-house for a refrigeration and an electrical package to drive the plant from the initial engineering stage, to manufacturing, commissioning and start-up, including transport to the mine site.
In addition to the W22Mining super premium electric motors, the WEG solution included a 2500 kVA dry transformer, a complete ELW Mining E-house with auxiliary Wall Mounted air conditioning systems, fire protection and other internal circuit as well as an intelligent CCM06 that includes CFW11 frequency drive, Enterprise nobreak and automation system with PLC panel. The solution provided by WEG in partnership with Howden brought together the technical teams of both companies and reduced the time required for electrical interconnections and equipment start-up since the E-house is supplied with all internal interconnections and fully tested at the factory.
Howden Sales Director, Edson Luis Geraldini, stated that the Howden and WEG partnership represents a significant drop in the internal temperature, in a 1400-meter deep mine with 105 kilometers of galleries and 8400 meters of ramps thus providing a more pleasant environment for the workers. At the same time, the equipment for the second phase of the project for the new mines that are part of the Caraíba Mine industrial complex are already in production at WEG with operation expected for the first quarter of 2022.

WEG launches the WEG Motion Fleet Management, a condition-based maintenance IoT solution to leverage the industrial fleet management
[ad_1]
One of the main reasons that affects the productivity and profitability of a company is unplanned production downtimes. Most corrective maintenance events could be avoided if machine and equipment parts were being continuously monitored.
Aware of this issue WEG developed the software which allows checking the operating status of low and medium voltage motors and drives (VSDs and soft-starters), gearboxes, gearmotors and other assets installed in any type of industry or facility. Through periodic data collection and advanced data processing, both on the edge and in the cloud, valuable insights are obtained. Thus, it is possible to establish predictive maintenance plans taking into account the operating condition of the fleet (condition-based maintenance).
The WEG Motion Fleet Management helps the industry to simplify and speed up the operation, maintenance and management of industrial plants, is the ideal and ready to use solution for monitoring and increasing the uptime of your industrial drive fleet. Based on cloud computing technology, the performance of assets can be monitored at any time, from any part of the world.
This approach reduces the unplanned downtime, optimizes repair actions and speeds up the decision-making of the Operations and Maintenance team. The result is increased uptime and reduce the drive fleet TCO (total cost of ownership).
Some features and advantages of WEG Motion Fleet Management are: dedicated and robust hardware for data acquisition, data processing on the edge and in the cloud, periodic fleet reports, maintenance order creation and management, asset prioritization tool, Exchange module for data integration (via REST API) and Specialist module with Analytics and Artificial Intelligence for failure diagnosis and consumption analysis.
To perform a more effective online condition-based maintenance, improve the fleet availability and reduce the TCO, use the WEG Motion Fleet Management solution.
