Recently, at a 2024 China Cement Dual Carbon Conference, Li Jiahui, deputy general manager of Zhuji and Chuang Motor, shared the "Energy-saving transformation application of permanent magnet direct drive motor system in the cement industry". Li pointed out that the current transmission chain of cement equipment has several issues, such as a long transmission chain that leads to low transmission efficiency and bulky structure. Moreover, maintenance work mainly focuses on gear-related equipment, and the independent design and manufacturing of various components increase manufacturing costs and maintenance complexity.

Li highlighted that the permanent magnet direct-drive motor system effectively addresses these problems. By directly connecting the motor to the load, this system eliminates the intermediate transmission links found in the traditional "asynchronous motor + hydraulic coupling + gearbox" configuration, simplifying the transmission chain and enhancing reliability and cost-effectiveness.

According to Li, the permanent magnet direct-drive motor offers the following advantages:

1. High efficiency and energy saving: significantly reducing energy consumption;

2. Low-speed and high-torque: meeting the heavy-duty demands of industrial operations;

3. Environmentally friendly with low maintenance costs: reducing reliance on gears and coupling equipment;

4. Compact structure and small size: suitable for industrial sites with limited space;

5. Digital monitoring: providing real-time operational data to enhance the intelligence of equipment.

With increasing global demands for industrial energy conservation and environmental protection, the application of permanent magnet direct-drive motor systems holds great potential, especially in the energy-saving transformation of the cement industry, where it can greatly improve production efficiency and reduce maintenance costs.
