Abstract

This paper describes the analysis and rationalization of energy consumption in gray iron foundry CIMOS TMD Casting Zenica. Based on results of analysis the key points are defined rationalized and measures proposed to reduce energy consumption, and therefore reduce production costs. The most significant share of energy consumption, and therefore in the financial sense, is electrical energy consumption. The reason for this is energetic – technological processes and installed equipment that requires major amount of energy. Analysis of energy consumption is the starting point for the rationalization of energy consumption per unit of basic products.
