ANDRITZ has successfully started up its second tissue production line at Xuong Giang Paper in Song Khê - Nội Hoàng Industry Park, Bắc Giang Province, Vietnam.
Like the machine supplied by ANDRITZ in 2020, the new PrimeLineCOMPACT S 1300 tissue machine processes virgin pulp to produce high-quality facial, toilet and towel paper with a speed of 1,300 m/min and a paper width of 2.85 meters. It is equipped with a 12-ft. PrimeDry Steel Yankee with a steam-heated hood ensuring highly efficient drying and energy cost savings. ANDRITZ also supplied fabrics and rolls and a tailored automation system, including PrimeControl machine and distributed control systems.
The stock preparation plant is split into separate systems for short and long fibers with high-consistency (HC) refining to achieve better fiber quality in terms of strength, softness and absorbency compared to conventional low-consistency systems. HC refining also allows to save long fibers and thus reduce production costs. It is the first time that such an HC refining system is installed in tissue production in Southeast Asia. ANDRITZ’s scope of supply also included an approach flow system, fiber recovery and broke handling equipment as well as pumps.
The PrimeLine tissue machine for Xuong Giang Paper is the fifth one supplied by ANDRITZ to the Vietnamese market in recent years and once again proves ANDRITZ’s position as a leading supplier to the Asian tissue industry.
