ANDRITZ successfully starts up second tissue machine with steel Yankee for St. Croix Tissue, USA
Press release available only in original language.
International technology Group #andritz has successfully completed the start-up of the second of two supplied PrimeLineTM W8 tissue machines with steel Yankees at the St. Croix tissuemill in Maine, #usa.
The machine has a design speed of 2,000 m/min and a width of 5.6 m. The Yankee is manufactured entirely of steel and has a diameter of 18 ft. It enables efficient drying at minimized energy costs and safe operation. As a special feature, the Yankee’s design enables the option of production with shoe press.
Both machines – the first of the two tissue machines started production in the second quarter of 2016 – have an aggregate capacity of 126,000 t/y for the production of hygienic papers and napkin tissues.
‘We have had a good experience with #andritz, they are a proven supplier,’ says Arvind K. Agarwal, CEO of International Grand Investment Corp., the parent company of St. Croix Tissue. ‘We have considerable confidence in their technology and reliability. The start-up of the two PrimeLine machines was outstanding and the ability of the machines to produce high-quality tissue with excellent formation is allowing us to convert a commodity product into a value-added product.’
This successful start-up again confirms #andritz PULP & PAPER’s position as one of the global market leaders for supply of complete tissue production lines, key components, and services.
