Valmet Conical Refiner Pro
One Is All You Need
A revolutionary concept in refining, the Valmet Conical Refiner Pro allows two traditional refiners to be replaced with one unit while still delivering a 30% electrical energy savings. The Valmet Conical Refiner Pro refiners are suitable for all kinds of low consistency refining applications.
High Efficiency, Low Cost
Due to a reduced number of refiners in the system, the Valmet Conical Refiner Pro increases energy efficiency and savings in operation costs all while supporting sustainable development. This ultimately leads to a reduction in maintenance costs, a lower entire life cycle cost, and less environmental stress.
Unique Flow-Through Technology
Stock is spread evenly across the bars where fiber treatment occurs. After treatment is completed, the fiber exits from the refiner. The design ensures that all the stock is treated evenly, providing higher refiner loadability and better energy efficiency.
Exceptional efficiency
The Valmet Conical Refiner Pro enables a higher installed power and throughput while also featuring a lower and more even pumping curve when compared to conventional refiners. Additionally, the refiner’s hydraulic capacity is not sensitive to fillings wear.
A Quick and Precise Power Control
Gap control is made by a moving rotor with a new generation loading system comprising of a servo motor and control.

Raw material savings with refining rebuild - JSC Arkhangelsk PPM
JSC Arkhangelsk PPM, the biggest containerboard manufacturer in Russia, has recently invested significantly as they strive to increase capacity, product quality, cost efficiency and sustainability. OptiFiner Pro refiners helped the Novodvinsk mill to meet its targets with an upgraded stock preparation system.
Breast roll shaker improves paper quality and refiner rebuild gives energy savings in Hankuk Paper
Onsan mill removes product quality limitations with Valmet's solutions and saves EUR 50,000 in annual energy costs.
Refining rebuild at Savon Sellu
“We believe that the unique refining principle of the OptiFiner Pro gives us an advantage. As a bonus, we use 30% less energy while achieving the same freeness values as before", tells Tapio Laukkanen about the results of a refining rebuild at Savon Sellu.
Improved end product quality with right refining
The first OptiFiner Pro refiner in Southern Europe started up in Cartiere Ermolli mill in 2014. The new refiner replaced two existing refiners at PM 1, increased the overall refining capacity significantly and reduced energy consumption by 20%.
