Rotating the World Sustainably & Reliably with TECO’s Solutions
Optimizing Sugar Production: TECO Electric Motors & Drives
In the Sugar industry, one of the main challenges is the inefficiency of crushing, which often results in suboptimal extraction or inflated energy costs. TECO Electric Motors and Variable Speed Drives are crafted to empower your operations with precision, torque and speed control. Our innovative solutions ensure consistent yield extraction while significantly lowering energy costs. TECO provides the sweet solution your operations crave, optimizing productivity and efficiency in the sugar industry.
TECO’s solutions extend to heavy-duty crushing and sizing. The robust TECO motor design ensures longevity and reliability, even in the face of shock loads. Paired with TECO Variable Speed Drives, TECO Electric Motors provide precise control and lower energy consumption over crushing and sorting processes, handling variable feed rates with ease. The diverse size and power requirements of the Sugar Industry find a tailored fit in TECO’s range, contributing to overall operational efficiency and reliability. Maintenance plans are simplified with TECO equipment, we can even discuss monitoring technologies with you, remote or centralised monitoring so you are always informed as to what is happening with your high value, Mission Critical assets.
When it comes to replacing unsuitable or unreliable motors and drives, TECO has years of experience and literally hundreds of examples where our team have designed “drop in” replacements to reduce time and cost of replacing motors. We can also discuss an increase in throughput using the same motor frame size. TECO has the ability to design more efficient, smaller motors or to pack more power into the same frame size. The added benefit of reduced energy consumption – especially when used with a TECO Variable Speed Drive – is proven and well documented.
Navigating the landscape of sugar production, one of the main challenges is conveyor reliability breakdowns disrupt operational flow . What’s needed is a solution that ensures reliable conveyor systems with minimal downtime. TECO Electric Motors are designed to guarantee seamless conveyor operations. Our motors minimise downtime and maximise efficiency, ensuring that your workflow remains uninterrupted. Additionally, TECO’s Variable Speed Drives provide the adaptability needed to match conveyance speed with the dynamic demands of production.
Conveyors are found in storage sheds, stacker-reclaimer systems, loaders and unloaders, as well as crushers and screens. TECO Electric Motors power heavy-duty units and offer accurate positioning in stacker-reclaimer systems. Paired with Variable Speed Drives, they ensure precise control over conveyor speed, accurate positioning, and controlled material handling during loading and unloading operations. TECO’s solutions adapt to varying material characteristics, withstand even the harshest environments, and optimize processes for energy efficiency. The patented TECO design facilitates easy maintenance, ensuring the reliability of your ore handling systems. With options of up to IP 66 rated motors and drives, up to class H temperature ratings and service factors of up to 1.2 readily available, TECO has on hand the solutions for your conveyors.
Working on the quest for precision in sugar milling, the primary risk is the inconsistency in granule size, which directly impacts the quality of the product. The solution needed is one that brings precision to milling, ensuring a consistent granule size. TECO Electric Motors and Variable Speed Drives take centre stage.
Our solutions offer unparalleled control over milling processes, enabling you to consistently achieve the perfect granule size.
TECO offers solutions from small single phase motors up to 415, 690 and 1,000 Volt motors held in stock. We also have Variable Speed Drives and Soft Starters on hand to match with this extensive range.
Milling can also sometimes require Explosion Proof or Dust Ignition rated motors, fire rated motors for ventilation as an example. Once again, TECO can help from our extensive local stock profile. TECO high efficiency Ex rated motors, offer the same benefits and efficiencies as our heavy duty Industrial motors but give everyone the additional peace of mind of knowing they are upgraded locally and rated for your specific environmental challenges.
Pumping systems in the sugar industry frequently grapple with excessive energy consumption and maintenance issues like dust and other contaminants. TECO addresses these issues with energy-efficient Electric Motors and intelligent Variable Speed Drives. Our motors are designed for optimum performance in pumping applications, while variable speed control ensures precise adjustments to match varying demands and keep energy costs down.
TECO’s offers world leading solutions for pump applications, where our Low to Medium Voltage Motors drive water pumps for drainage or washing, handle abrasive slurry, ensure coolant and lubricants are delivered, extract condensate and pump fuel oil and greases with ease. Paired with Variable Speed Drives, TECO motors provide precise control, adapting seamlessly to variable flow and pressure requirements. The robust design withstands abrasive environments and minimizes the risks of cavitation, contributing to efficient and reliable pumping systems. TECO also offer our local Modification capability, we can quickly assemble the correctly rated motor for your specific application. With Motors and Drives rated up to IP 66, Class H motor insulation and service factors of up to 1.2, TECO can offer a solution you know will perform for many years in almost any situation.
If you want to tackle the ongoing inefficiency of reactive maintenance and shift to a model where plant uptime takes precedence, TECO offers a full set of Motor Health Monitoring devices, from the incredibly inexpensive, simplest push button (manually operated) units to fully integrated, WiFi, Bluetooth or even hardwired options that will not only ensure you know what is happening with your Motors and Drives but also when things begin to change. Knowledge is power and with information flowing freely to your maintenance team, sudden downtime or unexpected failures across the plant are almost certain to become a thing of the past.
