With nearly 60 years of experience, Ib Andresen Industri (IAI) stands as a leading force in roll forming and sheet metal manufacturing. With facilities covering more than 100,000 square meters and with nearly 500 skilled professionals, IAI manufactures steel for high-quality solutions and takes projects from concept to industrial reality.
Their production depends on several large sheet metal presses, each of which is crucial to daily operations. Each press operates with a 600-liter hydraulic oil tank, making reliability and uptime absolutely critical to their production. Any unplanned downtime results in costly delays – something IAI is highly motivated to avoid. Therefore, they previously had to replace the oil in their systems regularly to maintain production uptime. This has undoubtedly been an expensive solution, both financially and from a sustainability perspective.
To minimize these risks and reduce unnecessary oil changes, IAI invested in a GreenOil WP1-P1-100 Mobile Filtration unit, enabling them to implement condition-based oil changes instead of scheduled oil changes. This step not only increases operational reliability but also supports their strong sustainability agenda, as the oil is cleaned more frequently, thereby extending the oils lifespan.
The GreenOil WP1-P1-100 Mobile is an advanced filtration system that maintains clean and dry oil. The system removes particles, varnish, insoluble oxidation residues, and water from the oil, which are retained in our filters to prevent contaminants from being recirculated back into the system.
The unit is designed to reduce operating costs, prevent unplanned breakdowns, and simplify maintenance. Additionally, it is mounted on a trolley, allowing it to be transported between multiple machines. Therefore, the WP1-P1-100 Mobile was a perfect choice for IAI, enabling them to maintain oil quality across several machines.
IAI is dedicated to building a responsible and future-oriented value chain. The company has committed to the Paris Agreement and the Science Based Targets initiative, aiming to reduce their emissions from their energy consumption by 95% by 2030 compared to 2018 levels.
