For the planned expansion of the wood chips transport between the storage area and the digester house at their cellulose processing plant, LENZING AG, a leading company in the field of the production of fibers made from the raw material wood, contracted a second RopeCon® conveying system. In a challenging market setting, LENZING AG thereby invests at their facilities in Lenzing to ensure sustainable raw material supply. The system covers a length of approx. 630 m and transports 350 metric tons per hour. It will run in parallel to the existing RopeCon®, which has been transporting beech wood chips since 2003. The distance to be covered is basically across all existing infrastructure on the premises. Furthermore, highest system availability has to be guaranteed to ensure a smooth production process. Assembly start is scheduled for spring 2021 and commissioning is planned for October 2021.
