AC drives (VFDs) market will be worth more than $16bn by 2011 (part 4)
Continued from the earlier article: AC drives (VFDs) market will be worth more than $16bn by 2011 (part 3).
Asia's strong demand for energy and basic materials, coupled with its low labour costs, means that the region will increase production of metals, chemicals, and paper. Large numbers of AC drives (variable speed drives, VSDs, frequency inverters) are needed for the production of those materials.
ARC says that the low-power AC drives (VFDs, variable speed drives, VSDs, frequency inverters) market is highly fragmented and suggests several techniques that suppliers are using to differentiate themselves from each other and to offer better value to users and OEMs.
The higher-power AC drive market is less fragmented. But the suppliers of these higher-power drives (inverters) are all primarily targeting applications in industries, such as oil and gas, metals and mining, power generation, cement, paper, wind energy, water and wastewater, and marine. Strategies include: adding medium-voltage drives to their portfolios; offering energy audits for the retrofit market; and incorporating application-specific features in their drives (inverters).
