At Valmet we are always looking to improve your tissue making process - no matter the area of production. Welcome to participate in this exclusive Tissue Talks DIVE webinar for tissue producers only.

12:00 p.m. U.S Eastern Standard Time on Wednesday Nov 9, 2022 

The yankee dryer is a central part of all common tissue making machines and processes. Its basic design has remained unchanged for over 100 years. In the 1990’s steel fabricated yankee dryers became a viable alternative to cast iron for the manufacturing of creped tissue papers. 

In this Tissue Talks we look back at some of the arguments brought forward comparing steel versus cast iron. What have we learned in the last 15 years? What remains to be further investigated? 

This session includes a 20-min presentation followed by 20 minutes of interactive discussions based on questions from the audience. 

This webinar is primarily targeted to the North American market, but as it is held in English we welcome tissue producers in other parts of the world as well.  

 

This Tissue Talks DIVE Webinar is hosted by Valmet North American team!
