Large Synchronous Motors for Blast-Furnace Blowers

Blast-furnace blowing is core to ironmaking—stable speed plus local VAR support. High power, continuous duty, extreme efficiency/reliability needs.

XIMA supplied TK synchronous motors with static excitation and AVR. Over-excited operation feeds VARs, improving plant power factor.

Blowing is stable with much improved power factor, cutting line loss and capacitor spend. XIMA provided full-cycle service from selection and manufacturing to commissioning and long-term O&M.
