In situ refurbishment for screw presses launch by Voith


A refurbishment service for screw presses that enables the full restoration of screw performance and reduces downtime has been launched by Voith.


With SmartGrinder the screw


is restored in situ, achieving an optimum balance between operating costs and technological performance. A modular system, SmartGrinder can be set up during operation according to the size and requirements of the screw press to be serviced so that downtime and production losses are minimised. Before proceeding with the repair, a


SmartGrinder enables precise restoration of the press screw diameter


detailed digitised condition measurement is carried out for the screw stem and flights. This allows a professional analysis of the existing wear pattern, indicating the areas that require


further attention. The design enables precise


restoration of the press screw diameter. “It can thus follow the flight geometry exactly, reducing downtimes by up to 20 per


cent compared to conventional repairs,” says Geert Tichler at Voith Paper. “As our service provides the flights with the required sharp edges, this results in an optimum removal from the fibermat.” After the first service, the SmartGrinder can be replaced quickly because the assembly plates remain on the screw press. All new Voith screw presses are already equipped with designated assembly plates. When repaired using the SmartGrinder, there is no need to dismantle the screw or to use spare screws, and costly screw transport is eliminated.
