Motor Control Center Manufacturers
A motor control center (MCC) is the hub of your electrical system. It’s where the various controls for your motors are housed, protecting them from any environmental hazards and ensuring they’re all operating correctly at all times. Whether your business uses small electric motors for industrial processes or large AC or DC fans in an office building, the MCC is what keeps everything running smoothly.
MCC manufacturers make the metal enclosures that hold the main control portion of your MCC. Known as MCC buckets, they come in different sizes and configurations to accommodate different power distribution systems. They are usually one to two square feet in size and feature compact designs that can be installed or removed quickly by an industrial personnel without any fuss.
An MCC also includes a ground fault protection circuit that will shut off the current if there is an issue. This prevents injuries or fires caused by faulty equipment, keeping your employees and machines safe. Depending on the design of your MCC, it may also have other safety features that keep your plants secure, including arc-resistant latches, door handles with a pressure relief mechanism and baffles to enable proper heat dissipation and maintain arc containment.
The global MCC market is slated to grow over the next decade. This growth is largely due to the rising demand for electrical motors across all industries. Additionally, the growing need for MCCs to control the operations of these motors is another driver.
However, a lack of investment in the development of the MCC industry is a restraint. This is mainly because MCCs require a high initial investment. Additionally, many utilities and end-users are concerned about the technical and commercial losses associated with MCCs. This is further driving the growth of alternative solutions.
In addition to these factors, the MCC industry is facing challenges due to the declining oil prices and increasing competition from Chinese MCC manufacturers. However, there are several opportunities for the MCC market in the future. For example, the MCCs that are fabricated by Chinese companies provide lower costs and are compatible with a wide range of applications.
