Pulp & Paper

The pulp and paper industry requires reliable and robust motor control for a variety of applications, from chippers and pumps to shredders and re-pulpers. AuCom offers a comprehensive range of motor control solutions, including soft starters and variable frequency drives (VFDs), designed to protect equipment, optimise energy use, and ensure smooth operation throughout all stages of production.

Soft starters offer significant advantages in pulp and paper applications, including:

• Reduced start current and gentle acceleration to minimise mechanical and electrical stress on the system
• Smoother operation, leading to less wear on equipment
• Advanced features like instantaneous overcurrent, PowerThrough, and motor thermal models to protect equipment and maximise productivity
