Abstract
Purpose: Thepresentoldstandardefficiencymotors(SEM)inblackteaprocessingmachineryconsumelargeamountofelectricity,thusincreasesthecostofproduction.Technologicallyimprovedhigh-efficiencymotors(HEM)orHEMcoupledwith variablespeeddrive(VSD)couldbeusefultoachievehigh-energyefficiency.Therefore,astudywasconductedwiththefocusto determinethefeasibilityofintroducingHEMandVSDinwitheringandrollingmachineryofblackteamanufacturing.
