Valmet to supply process automation and quality control systems to Jiangxi Taison Paper's four tissue machines in China
(Thomson Reuters ONE) -
Valmet Oyj's press release on April 11, 2017 at 11:00 a.m. EET
Valmet will supply Valmet DNA automation systems and Valmet IQ quality control
systems to Jiangxi Taison Paper's four new tissue machines, TM7, TM8, TM9 and
TM10, at its greenfield mill in Jiujiang, Jiangxi Province, China. By installing
Valmet's advanced automation technology in these tissue machines, the mill will
be able to optimize machine performance and end-product quality.
The order is included in Valmet's first quarter 2017 orders received. The value
of the order will not be disclosed. Typically, the order value of these kinds of
automation system deliveries ranges from below one million to three million
euros.
"Valmet is one of the top suppliers for the Chinese pulp and paper industry. The
company has very good tissue machine and automation technologies, wide
experience and many successful references in China. It's also very important for
us that Valmet has a professional local service team close to us. We trust in
Valmet," says Wu Jianxiong, General Manager, Jiangxi Taison.
"Jiangxi Taison can count on highly efficient project management, on-time
delivery and a successful startup when working with Valmet. Our proven
technology for tissue making, such as non-nuclear measurements and the reliable
Valmet DNA platform, will enable the mill to succeed and move its performance
forward," says Andy Zhang, Area Sales Manager, Valmet.
Information about Valmet's delivery
Valmet's delivery will include Valmet DNA distributed control systems (DCS) to
control the four tissue machines and Valmet IQ quality control systems (QCS)
with scanning measurement sensors.
One of the QCS highlights is Valmet IQ Fiber Measurement, which simultaneously
measures fiber weight and moisture. It was specially developed to replace
traditional nuclear basis weight sensors. Today, close to 200 sensors are in use
on the machines with a furnish that ranges from virgin pulp to 100% recycled
fiber. The combination of the two measurements in one sensor - fiber weight and
moisture - considerably reduces investment and life-cycle costs as well as
eliminates the need for nuclear licenses, safety training and handling
procedures.
