Proven Energy Savings | 4 Years of Stable Performance – A Customer’s Endorsement for Baldor

A Journey of Growth and Innovation

In the ever-changing industrial landscape, businesses must evolve and innovate to stay ahead. At Baldor, we are committed to providing energy-efficient solutions that drive progress while reducing costs. As part of our “Time Chronicles: Witness the Power of Energy Savings” campaign, we revisited our long-term partners to explore how our air compressors have transformed their operations.

In this first feature, we highlight Fangxiang Ceramics, a leading Chinese ceramic manufacturer that has partnered with Baldor for over four years, achieving significant energy savings and operational efficiency.

Founded in 2009, Guangdong Fangxiang Ceramics Co., Ltd. is a modern enterprise specializing in the research, production, and sales of high-quality ceramics. The company operates multiple large-scale ceramic production lines, with a daily production capacity of 180,000 square meters and an expected annual output value of 1.5 billion RMB.

With state-of-the-art research and logistics facilities, Fangxiang Ceramics has become one of China’s largest and most environmentally friendly ceramic manufacturers.

In recent years, the ceramic industry has witnessed exponential growth, with soaring market demand. However, Fangxiang Ceramics faced a significant challenge with their existing air compressor system, which was:

• Highly energy-consuming
• Noisy and inefficient
• Unable to meet increasing production demands
• Non-compliant with evolving environmental regulations

Recognizing the need for a high-efficiency air compressor system, Fangxiang Ceramics sought recommendations from industry experts. After thorough evaluation and performance testing, they selected Baldor’s BD-350PM-II Permanent Magnet Two-Stage Compression Air Compressors.

After rigorous testing, Fangxiang Ceramics integrated two Baldor BD-350PM-II air compressors into its production system. These intelligent permanent magnet variable-speed compressors delivered:

• Consistent and stable air pressure
• Powerful and reliable performance
• Reduced noise levels
• Significant energy savings

With Baldor’s expert guidance, the installation was completed within a week, including:

• Optimized air system design
• Seamless equipment integration
• Pipeline efficiency improvements

Baldor’s after-sales service team ensured fast installation, professional staff training, and real-time technical support, ensuring smooth operation from day one.

Before the upgrade, Fangxiang Ceramics used conventional compressors that consumed excessive electricity. After upgrading to Baldor air compressors, the transformation resulted in:

Previous System Energy Consumption:

• Daily production: 160,000 m² of ceramics
• Electricity usage: 12,000 kWh
• Energy cost per m²: 0.075 kWh/m²

After Upgrading to Baldor Air Compressors:

• Daily production: 160,000 m² (same output)
• Electricity usage: 8,000 kWh
• Energy cost per m²: 0.05 kWh/m²

Over 32% energy savings!
This substantial reduction in energy consumption translates to significant cost savings and a more sustainable production process.

Mr. Ou, a senior executive at Fangxiang Ceramics, praised Baldor’s exceptional product quality and customer service, stating:

“Baldor’s air compressors exceeded our expectations. Their team ensured fast installation, real-time support, and regular follow-ups. Even after four years, Baldor continues to provide top-notch service, making them our trusted partner in energy efficiency.”
