The Challenge
The factory operates continuously with fluctuating air demand throughout the production process. Traditional fixed-speed systems often result in unnecessary energy consumption during partial-load operation, increasing long-term operating costs. At the same time, the customer required:
· Stable compressed air supply for continuous manufacturing
· Improved energy efficiency under varying air demand
· Reliable long-term operation in real production conditions
· Better overall energy utilization

Olymtech Solution
Olymtech provided a VSD compressed air solution combined with waste heat recovery systems to improve both operational stability and energy efficiency.

The CMP Series VSD compressors automatically adjust motor speed according to actual air demand, helping reduce unload losses and unnecessary power consumption during fluctuating production cycles.

In addition, all compressor units were equipped with waste heat recovery systems to reuse thermal energy generated during compressor operation, further improving overall energy utilization.

Results
The system has been running steadily in the factory for years, supporting reliable daily production. One of the compressors has been operating since 2017 and has accumulated: 10,817 running hours 524,288 kWh total power consumption Under actual production conditions, the 110kW VSD compressor achieved an average operating power of approximately 48.5kW, demonstrating effective energy-saving performance in long-term operation. By combining stable air supply, VSD technology, and heat recovery systems, the customer achieved improved production reliability, lower energy consumption, and more sustainable factory operation.
