Electric scooter company turns to Atlas Copco for compressed air solutions

The EV company required dry and clean compressed air for a number of different operations at their plant including painting applications

Sustainability carries with it a number of short-term and long-term benefits. To begin with, clean, breathable air and nontoxic atmospheric conditions, planning and growing of resources (that our species relies upon each day), water quality and cleanliness. 

The urgency behind it can be gauged from the fact that 193 countries have agreed to unite for the 17 sustainable development goals laid forth by the United Nations and India is leading with its goals.

As per the e-AMRIT website which has been launched by India at the COP26 Summit in Glasgow, to act as a one-stop destination for all information on electric vehicles, more than 7.5 lacs electric vehicles have been registered to date. The GoI is also making a big push for EVs by providing necessary support in terms of policies and infrastructure like EV charging stations and thus promoting the automobile industry to focus on green energy.

 

The overall impact of this initiative is India has the highest no. of EV manufacturers and leading the way in the production of these vehicles. As Atlas Copco is also committed to science-based targets to reduce CO2 emissions and contribute to a greener world, with our

The overall impact of this initiative is India has the highest no. of EV manufacturers and leading the way in the production of these vehicles. As Atlas Copco is also committed to science-based targets to reduce CO2 emissions and contribute to a greener world, with our green production systems, it is our responsibility to support EV and EV-related industries with the right compressed air solutions that require today for their manufacturing setup.

 

One such case is related to India's leading Electric Vehicle Company wherein Atlas Copco air compressor solutions are helping the company save energy and lower its carbon footprint.

The customer

The largest manufacturer of electric scooters in India (at the time of the case study)

Location

Challenge

The EV company required dry and clean compressed air for a number of different operations at their plant including painting applications. However, the challenge is the demand for compressed air is varying at the point of use.

Our air experts along with the company's team studied their demand pattern and recommended the right compressed air solutions which can help them to reduce energy costs and increase the productivity of the plant.

Implementation and outcome

  • The 
    • The 
      • The 
        • The Variable Speed Drive (VSD) air compressor is the ideal solution for the fluctuating demand with almost 50% energy saving over fixed-speed air compressors.
        • Atlas Copco’s F 410 refrigerant air dryer limits the risks of moisture by removing moisture, which uses a refrigerant circuit and highly efficient heat exchanger(s) to pre-cool air, refrigerate it to condense out moisture vapour, and then re-heat the air to prevent pipe sweating downstream.
        • For the painting plant, we offered the ZT 90 VSD, an oil-free rotary screw air compressor which is highly energy efficient and provides clean 100% oil-free compressed air to avoid any contamination during the painting application. 
        • In the production line for assembling and testing, we offered the ZT 90, a fixed-speed oil-free rotary screw air compressor, which has superior oil-free screw elements that provide the optimum combination of high Free Air Delivery (FAD) with the lowest energy consumption. It's ample-sized cooling, low-pressure drops, and extremely efficient drive train result in the highest compressor package efficiency.
        • Atlas Copco’s BD360 desiccant air dryer has a robust and compact design that ensures the reliability of production processes and the quality of customers' end products by providing moisture-free air.
