Rising energy costs, increasingly stringent international regulations and a global drive to reduce carbon emissions, has resulted in pulp and paper customers opting for SEW-Eurodrive’s high energy-efficient IE3-compliant DRN motor range. The DRN IE3 premium efficiency motors comply with the highest level of European Union standards in terms of energy efficiency. According to Richards Bay sales engineer, Jacques Swart, this, along with the company’s long history of ensuring world-class delivery, and an unwavering commitment to its customers, is what sets SEW-Eurodrive apart from its competitors in the pulp and paper industry.
“Our projects department gets involved right from the enquiry or tendering stage, when we ensure we select the correct products to meet all of the requirements. Once the customer accepts our proposal, we proceed with planning and management until the project is completed. We always supply the best, most suitable solution,” he stresses.
SEW-Eurodrive offers customised solutions based on pulp and paper customer requirements to ensure that an application is successful and achievable. “Our involvement commences from the inception of the process when the raw material arrives on site, utilising conveyors powered by SEW drives, to the gearmotors and industrial gearboxes used in the processing plants themselves,” Swart continues. “With the global demand for paper ever increasing, SEW-Eurodrive is well positioned to support the ongoing growth of this sector with the latest technology in terms of energy efficiency and cost-effectiveness,” he concludes.
