Case story Efes Pilsen improves efficiency and sustainability with VLT® OneGearDrive® Efes Pilsen is a brand of Anadolu Efes, one of the large players in the beverage industry, with ambitious targets in operational efficiency and sustainability. Efes Pilsen breweries in Turkey have achieved energy savings of up to 63% after upgrading their conveyor lines. They replaced old gear motors with Danfoss VLT® FlexConcept®, which incorporates VLT® OneGearDrive®. The payback time of the investment is only 10 months. Anadolu Efes aims to reduce its carbon footprint through smarter use of energy resources in all operations. To achieve this goal, Danfoss Drives Turkey has supported Anadolu Efes with the introduction of the VLT® FlexConcept®, a flexible, highlyefficient conveyor drive system, incorporating the VLT® OneGearDrive®. So far, 26 VLT® OneGearDrive® units are installed in four Efes Pilsen plants in Turkey: Ankara, Istanbul, Izmir, Adana. This story will focus on the upgrades at the Ankara and Adana plants. And even more projects are on the drawing board, as Anadolu Efes and Danfoss Drives work together towards creating a better tomorrow driven by drives.
