A Southeast Asian pharmaceutical plant recently faced a critical challenge: its mixing and blending lines required motors capable of constant-speed operation, but the existing equipment suffered from frequent torque instability. These fluctuations disrupted batch consistency and increased energy consumption, putting pressure on production timelines and regulatory quality checks.
During an internal audit, engineers concluded that the issue stemmed from outdated induction motors unable to maintain precise speed under varying loads. To solve the problem, the facility management initiated a rapid equipment upgrade project and evaluated several suppliers specializing in high-precision drive systems. After field testing, the team selected a Simo motor configured as an electric synchronous motor, known for its stable speed control and strong performance in continuous-duty environments.
Once installed on the production line, the new synchronous motor delivered immediate benefits. Torque output remained consistently stable even during peak mixing cycles, and vibration levels dropped noticeably. The improved accuracy led to more uniform pharmaceutical batches, reducing waste and rework by nearly 18% in the first operational quarter.
Operators also reported improved energy efficiency and lower temperature rise during extended shifts, contributing to longer equipment life and reduced maintenance requirements. Impressed with the performance gains, the plant has now scheduled additional Simo synchronous motors for its tablet-coating and raw-material handling systems.
