Grace Paper to Install Second Tissue Machine at Indonesian Mill

PT Graha Cemerlang Paper Utama (Grace Paper), a member of Kompas Gramedia, Indonesia, will install a new Intelli-Tissue 2100 machine at its mill in Cikampek, Indonesia, some 80 km from Jakarta. The mill’s second unit to be supplied by PMPoland S.A, the 3,650 mm crescent former Intelli-Tissue 2100 machine (mirror version of the mill’s first PMPoland unit) has a maximum capacity of 140 metric tpd and a maximum operating speed of 2,000 m/min.

Although basically identical to the first PMPoland machine installed in 2005, the new machine will have a higher maximum operating speed and thus approximately a 5% higher capacity. It will be able to produce tissue in a basis weight range of 12 - 42 gsm for conversion into toilet rolls, facial tissue, and towels from 100% virgin pulp, both hardwood and softwood. The scope of supply covers stock approach, the entire tissue machine (Intelli-Jet V headbox, Intelli-Former Crescent Former, Intelli-Press, Intelli-Reel, and 15-ft YD with high efficiency gas hood), including auxiliary systems (such as lubrication system, steam and condensate, and vacuum systems, dust, and mist removal systems). The equipment supply and startup are scheduled to be completed by the end of 2011.
