At CurTec International, continuity is the standard in a 24/5 production environment. Our engineers realised an advanced monitoring system that links energy consumption directly to machine performance. This provides the technical staff with the peace of mind and certainty that every kilowatt is used optimally.
In CurTec's high-end plastic packaging industry, injection moulding and blowing machines run continuously. Without detailed insight into consumption per machine, optimisation opportunities remained unexploited and invisible risks such as reactive power penalties and unplanned downtime loomed. The challenge was clear: move from intuitive decision-making to a factual, technically-based strategy.
The fear of production stops and the growing pressure to achieve a climate-neutral value chain called for a partner that takes responsibility. "You can't optimise what you don't measure," a reality that at CurTec led to the need for a clear diagnosis of the entire plant.
HyTEPS uses a strict methodology to ensure the technical integrity of the installation. We installed five Ethernet-connected BFM-II Power Quality meters in the crucial main distribution cabinets. These units monitor up to 27 three-phase load points, using continuous waveform recording to capture any anomaly in the grid.
Our engineers performed accurate calibration of voltage, current and phase parameters. Through this in-depth analysis, we translate complex Power Quality data into directly usable insights for technical staff. This proves our role as an expert partner; we not only identify the symptoms, but model the full impact on operational reliability.
We implemented the ExpertPower platform, giving CurTec's engineers real-time access to critical data. Our proactive approach enables CurTec to link energy consumption directly to output per product. This allows the team to immediately identify the most efficient machines and resolve blind power issues before they lead to penalties or damage.
The result is a stable installation where decisions rest on facts. Active monitoring eliminated uncertainty about the cause of inefficiency. We minimised risks during implementation, giving CurTec the certainty it needed.
A reliable installation starts with a clear diagnosis. HyTEPS offers the technical expertise and decisiveness to take your Power Quality to the highest level. We take responsibility for your electrical infrastructure so that you can focus on your core business.
