Trelleborg’s industrial anti-vibration
mounts plant in Leicester has installed
a Mitsubishi Electric SCADA
solution with integrated MX4 Energy
software to monitor and control the
plant’s energy use. Since its
installation the package has helped
engineers to develop an energy saving
strategy throughout the plant that
continues to generate savings.

The MX4 solution logs energy
usage at all points throughout the site,
automatically analysing the data and
producing reports on where the most
energy is being used.

The plant’s senior process engineer
Mark Coote said: “We set ourselves an
initial target of a 5% reduction in
energy consumption, and were
delighted that we immediately
achieved nearer 6%. This gave us a
payback of less than 18 months, plus
the tools to go on reducing energy
well into the future.”
