Holmen Paper, Sweden, and Metso, Finland, have completed a roll service agreement for Holmen's Hallsta Paper Mill in Sweden. The value of the agreement was not disclosed.
According to the three-year agreement, Metso will be responsible for all mechanical roll services at the Hallsta mill. Roll grinding and part of mechanical roll maintenance will be carried out at Metso's workshops in Borlänge and Karlstad, Sweden. A Metso maintenance engineer will be based at the Hallsta mill to serve as a link between Metso and the mill. Metso's workforce will also include two maintenance technicians.
Daniel Peltonen, technical manager at the Hallsta Paper Mill, notes that "we have high expectations for this agreement, and not just regarding the quality of roll grinding and maintenance efficiency. We also expect it to have positive effects on productivity."
Holmen Paper, established 400 years ago, produces printing paper. The three paper machines at the Hallsta Paper Mill produce MF magazine paper and a range of special qualities of wood-containing printing paper. The mill' annual production capacity is 670,000 metric tons.
