A global starch manufacturing plant was
experiencing incorrect gearbox selection
and increased downtime due to the vast
amount of worm gearbox SKU choices that
were present in their inventory storeroom.
The plant had 4 storeroom bays of various
brands and sizes of gearboxes that were all
used for different purposes.
Maintenance personnel would select a
gearbox that was often-times not specified
for the application. This resulted in keeping
the starch inlet conveyor lines down
longer in order to modify the installation
of the selected gearbox and calibrate the
surrounding machines to get the lines to
run properly. This occurred at least once a
month and resulted in 2 hours of downtime
at a cost of $2,000 per hour.
Starch Plant Saves $48,000 Annually
With the versatility of Hub City™ HERA
High Efficiency Right Angle gear drives, the
plant was able to consolidate storeroom
storage from four bays to half of one bay and
increase uptime on all of their lines – saving
the plant $48,000 per year.
