Servo Pump Retrofit ROI Calculator

When you replace the old asynchronous pump motor in your hydraulic injection or press machine with an Estun servo drive + HPB PM Servo motor (Retrofit); you reduce waste by 95% during idle times, cut hydraulic oil cooling costs, and increase machine speed.

Application Area
Injection / Press
Classic Asynchronous (Flying Blind)
The motor runs constantly at 100% speed. During clamp idle times, the oil is simply bypassed through the valve and heats up, wasting 40% of energy.
Servo Pump (ONX Smart)
During idle time, the motor completely stops (or slows down drastically), and electricity draw drops to 5%. When pressure is requested, it spikes back up within 50ms.
Hidden Gain (Cooling)
Because the oil is not bypassed, the hydraulic system does not heat up. The electricity consumption of the chiller (water cooling) drops significantly.

Why Convert to a Servo Pump?

Dramatic Energy Reduction

The longer the idle, cooling, and part-removal times in the machine cycle, the more massive the energy savings as the servo pump stops during those moments.

Oil Life and Chiller Savings

Constantly recirculating hot oil shortens its lifespan, and the chiller works furiously to cool it. Since the servo system doesn't heat the oil, chiller savings stay in your pocket.

More Precise and Faster Production

Closed-loop driven high-torque PM Servo motors adjust hydraulic pressure in milliseconds, increasing your production speed and product weight precision.

Note: The old system (asynchronous) continues to draw 30%-50% of its power even while idle, by closing the valve and turning idly. A servo motor, however, draws only 2%-5% of its power while idle—just enough to maintain pressure.

Engineering Expert Insight

The Secret to Gain is "Idle" Time: The longer the mold cooling or part removal time, the longer the servo system goes into "sleep (stand-by)". While the motor turns idly in the old system during this time, the servo system's energy draw drops to 5%, creating the massive gain.

The Hidden Profit: Chiller (Cooling) Unused oil in traditional hydraulics is bypassed through a proportional valve back to the tank. Oil passing through this bottleneck heats up, and the chiller works constantly to cool it. Because the servo system only pumps as much oil as needed, the oil doesn't heat up. This means an extra 10-20% hidden gain not seen on the electricity bill.

Frequently Asked Questions

Is the power (kW) of the new servo motor chosen to be the same as the old motor?

Usually not. Since servo motors can operate at up to 300% momentary overload (peak), the machine's maximum pressure requirement is met with peak torque, allowing the motor power to be sized one or two sizes smaller. This reduces hardware costs.

Do I have to change the pump as well?

If your current pump is a fixed displacement internal gear pump, it can usually be connected directly to the servo motor (with coupling and flange matching). However, variable displacement pumps generally need to be replaced with fixed displacement pumps because the servo already alters the flow itself via speed.

Does the retrofit (modernization) process make the machine panel much larger?

On the contrary. Because the old star-delta contactors are removed, serious space is freed up inside the panel. However, the panel's ventilation/AC needs must be re-checked against the heat emitted by the servo drive and (if present) the braking resistor.

Why is the payback (amortization) period calculated at under 10 months?

Especially in thick-walled (long cooling time) injection processes, idle time is over 50%. In industrial zones where the electricity unit price is high (especially in 3-shift production), the investment literally pays for itself within months.
