(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Valmet Oyj's press release on June 8, 2016 at 11:00 a.m. EET
Valmet will supply an Advantage DCT 100TS tissue production machine to Papel San
Francisco in Mexico. The new machine will be installed at the company's mill in
Mexicali and start-up is planned for the second half of 2017.
The order is included in Valmet's second quarter 2016 orders received. The value
of the order is not disclosed
Continuation of good cooperation
The new tissue line will fulfill Papel San Francisco's need of new capacity for
standard tissue products. Valmet has previously delivered three tissue machines
to the company. Two Advantage DCT machines started up in 2006 and 2009 and one
Advantage NTT started up in 2013 which fulfills the company's demand of textured
tissue.
"Our previous installations are running very well. The Advantage DCT machines
are operating at high speed and made the world speed record of 2160 m/min
already in 2009. The Advantage NTT machine has reached record high production
capacity in conventional mode and the textured products are well received on the
market. Due to the need to increase our capacity of standard tissue we decided
to go for the cost and energy efficient Advantage DCT technology equipped with
the Advantage ViscoNip press," says Dario Palma y Meza Espinoza, Operational
Director, Papel San Francisco.
"Our relationship with Papel San Francisco is a showcase for how a supplier and
customer cooperate to achieve continuous performance improvements with a win-win
result. During the years Papel San Francisco has managed to break several
records regarding speed and operation performance. Our relationship is built on
respect, strong trust and cooperation with professional and technical focus,"
says Jan Larsson, Sales Director North America, Tissue Mills Business Unit,
Valmet.
Technical information about the delivery
The new tissue machine will have a width of 2.8 m and a design speed of 2,200
m/min and will add 30,000 tons tissue paper per year to Papel San Francisco's
current production of toilet tissue, kitchen towels and napkins.
Valmet's scope of delivery will comprise an Advantage DCT 100TS tissue machine.
The machine will be equipped with OptiFlo headbox and cast alloy Yankee
cylinder. The machine will also be featured with the well proven Advantage
tissue technology including ViscoNip press, AirCap hood and WetDust dust system.
Start-up and commissioning are also included in the delivery.
