Mosaico Tolmezzo paper mill in northern Italy installed Valmet Trim Collector (earlier TrimRecovery) system in March 2015, since then the mill has experienced fewer breaks and increased machine runnability. The new trim collector system has overcome the bottlenecks that had been preventing the mill from doubling its production.
Summary
Location | Tolmezzo, Italy |
Customer challenge | Old trim removal system was the bottleneck of the production increase. Need for system that removes the stock from the fabric before the nip of the pick-up. |
Solution | Valmet Trim Collector solution cleans the trim area effectively and allows controlled recovery of high-quality trim for reuse as fiber raw material. The solution is installed so that the trim can be blown off the surface of the fabric. |
Results | With the help of the trim collector, the mill has now achieved its target of doubling both speed and production. All the saved broke goes to PM 3 for reuse. |
