A new digital service from ABB will enable industrial operators to maximise energy efficiency and boost sustainability by identifying motor-driven equipment in their facilities with the best energy-saving potential.

In response to the increasing need for action on climate change, industries are sharpening their focus on sustainability goals.

A renewable energy scheme is unveiled as part of upgrades to a Scottish reservoir. Torishima Service Solutions Europe Ltd, using an ABB generator and regenerative drive on their turbine have provided a scheme producing green energy which is returned to the grid.

Aggregate producer Tarmac has significantly reduced the likelihood of failures to its motor-driven equipment on two granulation plants at its Port Talbot facility.

ABB is entering into a strategic partnership with Swiss-based start-up Sevensense, founded in 2018 as a spin-off from ETH Zurich, to enhance ABB’s new autonomous mobile robotics (AMR) offering with artificial intelligence (AI) and 3D vision mapping technology. The technology will offer customers unprecedented levels of flexibility as mobile robots will be able to navigate autonomously in complex, dynamic indoor and outdoor environments close to people.

ABB is proudly celebrating five years of ABB Ability innovations. Officially introduced at ABB’s Capital Markets Day in October 2016, ABB Ability solutions have been the bedrock in establishing ABB’s leading presence in the industrial Internet of Things (IIoT) market.

A more consistent distribution of dye in clothing and furnishing fabrics has resulted from replacing a hydraulic control system with a variable speed drive (VSD) while also helping reduce the process’ annual energy bill by £1,900.

ABB will deliver automation, electrification, quality control systems, motors and drives for Renewcell’s new industrial textile recycling production line in Sundsvall, Sweden. Renewcell is a fast-growing Swedish sustaintech company specializing in textile-to-textile recycling.

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).
