Shreyans Industries, India, has ordered from PMP Group, Poland, an Intelli-Jet V® hydraulic headbox as part of an upgrade of the mill’s printing and writing (P&W) papers machine. Shreyans Industries is located in the Ahmedgarh, in Sangrur district. The paper mill has a P&W paper production capacity of up to 35,000 metric tpy. Its goal is to increase PM speed up to 750 m/min and its annual production up to 50,000 metric tons. In this regard, the new headbox will improve paper quality and enable operation at higher speeds.
The PMP Intelli-Jet V is a technologically advanced hydraulic headbox characterized by operational friendly construction and applied stainless long-term durability. The headbox will be about 3,100 mm wide and equipped with a consistency profiling system, which assures control over basis weight, resulting in uniform paper web structure and better CD basis weight profile. The headbox will be equipped with four rows of headbox tubes.
Delivery of the PMP Intelli-Jet V hydraulic headbox is scheduled for the first half of 2014. PMP will supervise the assembly process and startup of the hydraulic unit.
