At a wire width of 8,600 mm and a design speed of 1,800 m/min, the new Narew PM 5 project will produce 455,000 metric tpy of testliner. The new machine is designed to produce lightweight testliner and recycled fluting in a basis weight range of 65-140 gsm.
The POM compact approach system delivery includes: two POMix Stock Processors for efficient stock mixing, three POMp Degassers for white water dearation, two POMlock suction leg sealing units, as well as compact process solutions and engineering for the whole approach flow system. Stora Enso's focus of this investment was on operational savings from improved drainage, cleanliness, and quality, as well as on space and especially energy cost savings, which all are met by POM System applications and principles.
POM Technology previously delivered several POM Degassing solutions to Stora Enso Varkaus and Imatra Mills in Finland. At the beginning of this year, the company will become part of Aikawa Fiber Technologies (AFT), which has manufacturing centers in Canada, China, Finland, Japan, and South Korea.
