MTA Improves Process Cooling Efficiency at Fanton Spa

MTA Improves Process Cooling Efficiency at Fanton Spa
MTA recently supported Fanton Spa, a historic Italian manufacturer of electrical components based in the province of Padua, in upgrading the cooling system of its plastics molding department.
The production area includes 16 injection molding machines with capacities ranging from 50 to 400 tons, processing materials such as nylon, ABS, polycarbonate and polypropylene. Reliable process cooling is essential to ensure production continuity and product quality.
The existing system, based on a NOVA FRIGO R105 chiller installed in 2001, had become obsolete and increasingly unreliable. Following a technical evaluation, MTA proposed a new configuration specifically designed for industrial process cooling.
The installed solution includes:
  • 2 x TAE G 301/P3 chillers using low-GWP refrigerant R454B
  • 1 x FC4TAE 602/DF dedicated free-cooling unit
  • External plate heat exchanger
  • Advanced control and supervision system
Energy simulations based on the Padua climate profile show an estimated 11.3% annual energy saving, equivalent to approximately €3,961 in reduced operating costs and a reduction of 6.72 tons of CO? emissions each year.
This project highlights how a properly engineered process cooling solution can significantly improve efficiency, reliability and sustainability in several industrial applications.
