Innovative digital solutions for greater efficiency and safety

Innovative digital solutions for greater efficiency and safety

When a producer of specialist plastics was expanding their polycarbonate facility in China, they turned to ABB for advanced switchgear solutions. Simultaneously innovating to make their production processes more sustainable and digitalized, ABB worked closely with their team to deliver the project. 

ABB implemented innovative digital solutions for switchgear and power distribution to modernize the facility. With the aim of improving efficiency through digitalization and artificial intelligence (AI), ABB offered a comprehensive digital solution including medium voltage switchgear, the digital low voltage switchgear MNS® and the ABB Ability™ CMES system (Condition Monitoring for Electrical Systems), which meets high demands on the reliability of the systems.  

“To grow sustainably and profitably, manufacturers need power distribution they can count on to deliver 24-7,” said Marco Tecchio, Global Marketing & Sales Manager, Low Voltage Systems. “ABB’s expertise in system security, digital components, motor protection and control, made us a perfect fit for the customer’s needs”.  

Key benefits of ABB's solutions

Improved operational efficiency and predictability:

Plants can monitor and analyze their power distribution equipment in real time, identifying potential equipment failures in advance. This significantly reduces unplanned downtime, lowers maintenance costs and increases overall equipment efficiency and reliability through predictive maintenance strategies, resulting in higher productivity and economic benefits.

Enhanced safety and reliability

With advanced arc-proof design and reduced downtime features, MNS greatly enhances plant safety and power supply reliability. In addition, with withdrawable solutions, it allows for the safe and reliable replacement of functional units without a shutdown.

Promoting sustainable development and energy efficiency

The CMES system‘s energy consumption reporting capabilities enable operators to make informed decisions to manage facilities and optimize energy usage more effectively, reducing energy waste and supporting green, low-carbon objectives.
