Chemical, pharmaceutical and plastic

The global need for chemicals and pharmaceuticals is increasing, and new commodities, compounds, active ingredients and drugs are continuously being developed to meet the needs of all industries and for various uses in everyday life. Using the best-available technologies is standard practice for chemical reactors, distillation, precipitation, drying, milling, granulation, hot melt extrusion and associated processes in these heavy industries.

Efficient supply, refining and transportation of the valuable raw materials kept at accurate temperature levels at all times can be achieved with refrigeration solutions from Danfoss. And, when it comes to the best-available technology for AC motors, the industry recognizes the benefits of speed control using AC drives.

Danfoss offers you its widespread experience and expertise in refrigeration and in controlling the speed of AC motors in all main chemicals sectors: petrochemicals, basic inorganics, polymers, specialty and consumer. Our range of refrigeration equipment and AC drives is designed to fulfill the demands of the chemical industry where safety has the highest priority.

Air quality
In the pharmaceutical industry air-quality is a concern to support employee health and safety and prevent cross-contamination. Using Danfoss AC Drives to control dust collector fan speed is an efficient way to maintain airflow/static pressure while increasing energy savings. Reducing fan speeds by 20% can translate to 50% energy savings. Learn more about Drives for fan applications

Clean rooms
Danfoss AC Drives can help control the chilled and the hot water valves of machinery to ensure the unique requirements of pharmacy clean room applications are met accurately.

Pumps
Pumps are required at all stages of processing in the pharmaceutical industry. Danfoss AC Drives provide reliable performance to deliver peace of mind in even the most delicate and critical processes. Learn more about AC Drives for pump applications

Energy optimization of injection molding and extrusion machines
From the energy-intensive process of melting granulates and powders, through to compounding, injection molding and extrusion, plastics manufacturing machinery has a lot to gain from reduced power consumption and optimal regulation. Processing of polyethylenes, polyurethanes, or polypropylenes into plastic components and packaging materials is a highly competitive industry based on cost and quality. This is why precision temperature control in both heating and cooling, combined with compactness and flexibility in component design make Danfoss solutions valuable: they offer easy integration, deliver world-class precision, and are highly cost-effective to operate.

Know-how in all-electric and hybrid
For all-electric machinery you gain the world’s longest experience and know-how in sophisticated and robust motor control by dealing with Danfoss. And we also offer diverse and in-depth knowledge and equipment to ensure your power conversion is optimal and energy-efficient, for hybrid electric-hydraulic machines from injection molding to extrusion and more.

Precision, purity and temperature control
You’re facing the challenges of maintaining high accuracy and consistent quality for constant-pressure processes under costly heat management conditions. We have the experience and solutions to manage these issues so you achieve the performance you need in manufacturing high quality, stable plastic components at a satisfying TCO (total cost of operation).
