The Variable Frequency Drive (VFD) market is positioned for growth with some reports predicting a market value greater than $20 billion by 2021. What's driving this growth? Advantages to using VFD such as tighter process control and cost savings achieved through improved efficiency, reduced energy usage, and decreased maintenance. While controllers and motors combine as the two primary components to VFD, there is one additional component that is often overlooked and yet it is key to achieving the above-outlined benefits: the cable. 

The Wood, Pulp & Paper industry is known for producing wood chips, pulp slush, and waste water (aeration ponds). The paper-making process results in a lot dust and other particles that can put machinery and cables at an increased risk for failure. 

Without proper maintenance, it is hard to protect your investments. Here are 5 maintenance tips for wood and pulp equipment: 

As each year passes, Ethernet cable wiring becomes increasingly important in our world of constantly evolving technologies, especially because of the Internet of Things (IoT) and now the Industrial Internet of Things (IIoT).

STAY ON TOP OF INCREASING DEMANDS IN THE FOOD & BEVERAGE INDUSTRY

Electrical cables in the food and beverage industry are constantly exposed to a variety of abusive environments, such as constant washdowns, harsh chemicals, abrasion, heat, cold, flexing, constant motion and impact.

Global specialist distributor and worldwide exporter, Thorne & Derrick International (T&D), recently featured a TPC Wire & Cable contributed article about heat tracing electrical cables for frost protection of water pipework.

Consequences of frost damaged water services can go from inconvenient to catastrophic in an instant.

Medium voltage cable provides a reliable power source in the event of unpredictable power outage situations, power distribution to isolated areas and any application ranging from 5kV up to 35Kv. To ensure that your cable lasts, choose a durable medium voltage cable with excellent flexibility. In addition to flexibility, the cable you choose should include a variety of benefits that will reduce downtime and keep your facility running smoothly.
