Lightweight containerboard conversion for Heinzel Group’s Laakirchen mill
Austria’s Heinzel Group is having the PM10 machine at its Laakirchen paper mill converted by Andritz to make lightweight containerboard.

Also included in the order is a
new OCC line and PM approach system. The recycled fibre line includes a FibreSolve FSR pulper

Hengen to start up 20th tissue machine this year
Hengan in China has started up its 19th tissue machine, an Advantage DCT 200HS supplied by Valmet, at its mill in Wuhu in Anhui province. The new tissue machine adds another 60,000 tons of tissue products to Hengan’s current production of more than one million tons per year. PM19 is Valmet’s fifth tissue machine delivery to Hengan. The previous four Valmet Advantage DCT machines are located at Jinjiang, Changde and Weifang mills and were installed in 2006, 2007, 2009
and 2010. The installation of a sixth Valmet tissue machine, PM20, is ongoing, and it will start up later in 2016. Cui Jiantong, project manager at Hengan Group, said: “Joint effort and great work from the joint Valmet and Hengan team ensured a successful start-up of our new PM19 at exactly 10.48am on 8 August. The new machine will raise Hengan Group’s total production capacity to 1,080,000 annual tons of tissue and reduce the current production shortage.”
