Valmet will supply an Advantage DCT 200HS tissue line to Lee & Man Paper’s Chongqing mill in Yongchuan City, China.
Valmet's scope of delivery will comprise a complete tissue production line featuring stock preparation systems and an Advantage DCT 200HS tissue machine. In addition, basic engineering, installation supervision, training, start-up and commissioning are also included in the delivery.
The new tissue line with 5.6m width and a design speed of 2,000 m/min will have an annual production capacity of 60,000 tonnes of toilet and facial tissue. The machine will be equipped with an OptiFlo headbox and a cast alloy Yankee cylinder. It will also feature the well proven Advantage tissue technology including ViscoNip press, a steam heated AirCap hood, WetDust dust system and a SoftReel P reel.
Svenerik Olsson, Director, Tissue Mills Business Unit, Valmet China, said, “Our Advantage Visco Nip press is specially designed for very high linear loads which combined with a cast alloy Yankee cylinder makes it possible to increase the paper dryness after press and reach significant drying energy savings."
The tissue line is expected to start production in late 2015.
