C&S Paper, China, has ordered from Toscotec, Italy, two new tissue machines with a combined capacity of 58,000 metric tpy to be installed at its mills in China. The order was placed after C&S Paper brought another Toscotec tissue machine online this summer at its Tangshan City mill, the third one supplied by Toscotec in the past two years. The two new machines are scheduled to come online in the second half of 2013.

The new Toscotec machines will be installed at the Chengdu mill at Sichuan. One of the machines (AHEAD-1.5M) will have a trim width of 3,550 mm, a speed of 1,650 meters/min, a steam heated hood, a steel yankee dryer TT SYD-16FT, and a production capacity of some 32.000 metric tpy. The second machine (AHEAD-1.5S) will have a trim width of 2,850 mm, a speed of 1,700 meters/min, a gas fired hood, a steel yankee dryer TT SYD-12FT, and a production capacity of some 27.000 metric tpy.

Toscotec’s scope of supply for both machines includes a crescent former tissue machine, machine auxiliaries, the hood, and dust removal system (provided by Toscotec associated Milltech), electrification, and the control system.

C&S Paper owns six mills in China operating 80 machines, including the new Toscotec units at the Jiangmen and Tangshan sites with a total tissue capacity of approximately 350,000 metric tpy at the end of 2012. Three more Toscotec units will come on-stream in the next months.
