Tissue line at ICT Iberica is fifth supplied by Valmet
I
CT Iberica‘s mill in Burgo, Spain, has successfully started up its new Advantage DCT 200HS
tissue production line supplied by Valmet.
The tissue line supplied by
Valmet meets ICT Iberica‘s objective to produce the highest quality tissue. Valmet has previously delivered four tissue lines to ICT’s mills in Italy, France and Poland. Silvano Marcelli, technical manager at ICT and Antonio Jordan, project manager at ICT Iberica, commented: “Thanks to the teamwork between Valmet and ICT technicians, the project achieved all the objectives, both
in terms of quality and timing. The capability to manage the main planning of all the phases – engineering, installation and commissioning – in a flexible way, the final tuning of the on-site activities, joined with the skills of the team members involved
in the project, were the keys to achieve a regular and smooth start-up.” The new line adds production of 70,000 tons a year for toilet, towel, facial, and napkin grades for the European market, made from virgin fibre.
Valmet delivered a complete tissue production line including a stock preparation system and an Advantage DCT 200HS tissue machine. It also included a two- layer OptiFlo Headbox, Advantage ReTurne energy recovery system, Advantage ViscoNip press and Advantage SoftReel reel, as well as Advantage AirCap hood, steam generator and a complete mill equipment system from bale handling to fan pumps. The ICT group was founded in 1978 and currently operates ten paper machines in four European countries. With the latest installation its global annual production capacity increased from 540,000 to 610,000 tons.
Argentina’s CMPC mill starts up new Yankee from Toscotec
Papelera del Plata, part of CMPC Tissue Latam group, recently started up a new steel Yankee dryer supplied by Toscotec on the PM3 line at its Zarate mill in Argentina. This is a repeat order for Italy- based Toscotec, which in 2010 started up another steel Yankee at CMPC Tissue’s mill in Uruguay. These TT SYD steel Yankee dryers replaced two existing units supplied by another manufacturer. At the Zarate mill, the TT SYD- 12FT dryer has a diameter of 3,660mm and a face width of 2,800mm. Included in the order was Toscotec’s patented deckle insulation system, which enables safe and practical application
of the deckle insulation on the Yankee’s heads without any machining, the drive group, support and bearings, and the main components of the steam and condensate system. The
service package included the engineering design, installation supervision, commissioning and start-up assistance, as well as on- site training programme. Simone Pieruccini, Toscotec’s
pressure vessel technical manager, said: “In order to meet the stringent delivery requirements of the customer, we manufactured and delivered the TT SYD in record time. From the project kick-off meeting to the notice of goods ready for shipment, it took us only three-and-a-half months. Thanks to the good cooperation with Papelera del Plata, installation, commissioning and start-up were very successful and the TT SYD started performing well from day one.”
One of the biggest pulp and paper manufacturers in Latin America, CMPC has mills in eight countries and yearly capacity of 700,000 tonnes.
