ANDRITZ to Supply Two Tissue Production Lines With Stock Preparation to MG TEC Industry

The turnkey order comprises two PrimeLineCOMPACT V tissue machines with steel Yankee as well as complete stock preparation systems, pumps, automation, hall ventilation, and electrification.

Each production line will be equipped with an ANDRITZ stock preparation line including approach flow system and broke handling. The proven TwinFlo disc refiner technology is used in a separate long-fiber line to achieve optimum development of fiber properties. The approach flow systems feature the ANDRITZ ShortFlow concept, which allows a minimized number of equipment items and very low storage volume as well as fast grade changes at the tissue machine.

The ANDRITZ tissue machines have a design speed of 1,900 m/min and a width of 2.85 m. They are equipped with a 15 ft. PrimeDry Steel Yankee for energy-efficient and safe operation. The drying components PrimeDry Hood G, PrimeDustEXT dust extraction system, and PrimeMistEXT mist extraction system as well as the hall ventilation system will be delivered by ANDRITZ Novimpianti.

The ANDRITZ pumps with efficiencies of up to 90% enable long life cycles at highest cost-effectiveness.

The ANDRITZ automation system combined with the latest drive technology ensures modern and efficient plant operation.

This order once again confirms ANDRITZ’s excellent position as a global tissue machine supplier. Ioan Tecar, Project Coordinator, says: “Decisive criteria for the order were the innovative technologies of ANDRITZ that enable easy and safe operation with high quality and the capability to deliver everything from a single source.”

MG TEC Industry is a newly formed company focusing on innovation and sustainable tissue production.
