Roll maintenance for board and paper machines

Pick-up roll running time extended from four to 14 months

Hamburger Hungaria was troubled by short running times, an unscheduled downtime and extensive maintenance on its PM 7 pick-up rolls. Since the installation of a new Valmet pick-up roll and roll upgrades, the running time has more than tripled.

Lightweighting and the right fiber strength for your coated board production

Every product needs packaging – strong enough to protect its contents and visually attractive enough to tempt the buyers. As a producer of coated board, you need to ensure both the appearance and function of your end products.

Roll change interval increased from one to two years in Papierfabrik Adolf Jass

The Adolf Jass Fulda mill chose the Lock Seal axial seal technology developed and patented by Valmet. Nowadays it is a standard solution in Valmet's high-speed machines. Each existing roll including a competing product can be modernized with Valmet Lock Seal.

Precise roll grinding with 3D roll shape measurement

Every customer has their own particular dimensional tolerances for board and paper machine roll grinding. A fast, reliable and accurate 3D grinding process is vital to meet those specific needs. Valmet’s experts take advantage of the latest 3D technology to guarantee precise profile and roundness shapes.

One plus one is more than two

To ensure its paper machine roll reliability and availability, the Kerinci mill in Indonesia has entered a full-scope roll service agreement with Valmet, including a condition monitoring system. This is Valmet’s first roll service agreement combining roll maintenance and remote condition monitoring, and the results can already be seen in improved performance.

Valmet Roll Academy

Valmet's Maintenance Schools and Roll Academies gather people from the pulp and paper industry to learn from Valmet and one another. They help secure the best possible knowledge and skills needed to maintain and operate the equipment throughout their lifecycles.

Maximum equipment performance through modular service solutions

Modular service solutions offer pulp and papermakers clearer choices for the maintenance of all rolls and equipment for fiber production.

360°Rolls - performance up, costs down

By questioning their current operating models, paper mills greatly increase the chances of success in the search for lower costs, better availability, and higher efficiency. Valmet’s 360°Rolls approach enables papermakers to achieve better results with a 360° view of rolls and the roll environment.

Maintenance planning ensures availability

In a major mill or plant investment project, the cost of maintenance planning is just a drop in the ocean. However, it pays for itself many times over through high availability and better results.

Making the right choices to boost wet pressing efficiency

Wet pressing has an impact all the way from paper machine drying capacity and web runnability to end product properties. The secret of process efficiency often lies in making the right choices for the press section consumables.

Value-added roll maintenance

“New roll modernization designs help to save not only downtime but also energy costs", says Ed Vandeveire, Head of Agreements for North America.
