Sheet Metal Cabinet Dust Collection Systems
Project Background
The client is a manufacturer of industrial control cabinets in Germany, supplying power, rail transit, and renewable energy industries. Their existing oven had high energy consumption (electricity 35% of operating costs) and unstable temperature uniformity. Replacement was needed.
The Challenge
Client's core requirements for the new oven: temperature uniformity ±3 °C (vs ±10 °C previously), 30% lower energy use, integration with existing overhead chain.
MUSI's Solution
MUSI proposed a bridge-type gas oven: U-shape body to reduce heat loss + multi-zone temp control + 70% heat recovery + high-speed circulation fan. Total energy savings 35%+.
Equipment Configuration
| Oven type | Bridge gas oven |
|---|---|
| Effective dimensions | Internal 18×3×2.8 m |
| Heating | Direct natural gas |
| Max temperature | 230 °C |
| Temp. uniformity | ±3 °C |
| Zoning | 5 independent zones |
| Heat recovery | 70% |
| Annual energy savings | ~38% (vs original electric) |
Implementation
50-day delivery (oven + accessories only — no full line). Client's old electric oven removed, MUSI's new oven in place + gas connected within 7 days.
Results
Temperature uniformity stable at ±2.5 °C. Annual energy cost reduced by $115K USD (~38%) — additional investment recovered in 3.5 years. Client has scheduled rollout to two more factories.
Client Feedback
"Energy efficiency has always been our pain point. MUSI's design is rigorous, the savings data is real, and exceeded our expectations."
