PMP Intelli-Tissue™ 900


As a result of tissue market growth in selected markets (especially Chinese & Eastern European), consumers' expectations have become more sophisticated. At the same time, there are also more and more companies that are interested in starting their own tissue business. Every time, they are looking for economical and flexible solutions to keep their business profitable.

To combine simplicity, technology and at the same time keep investment costs low, PMP has recently launched Intelli-Tissue™ 900 line and opened a new manufacturing facility in China: PMP IB (Changzhou) Machinery & Technology. Response from the market has been very positive. Last year PMP won two tissue projects in China. One of them is the complete new Intelli-Tissue™ 900 line for Anhui Bilun Tissue Paper Co (Smile).

Intelli-Tissue™ 900 is an efficient, operator-friendly and cost effective eco-tissue machine installation. Key technical data are: maximum operating speed up to 1000 m/min, machine trim 2.4 or 2.7 m, basis weight on the wire 11-25 g/m2, the average production 40-45 tons/day. The machine configuration is a typical crescent former machine with a 12- ft diameter yankee dryer and a steam-heated yankee hood.

As a turn key project, PMP offers the complete design of the stock preparation system including virgin or recycled fibre lines, broke line and water system. In PMP designs, software for flow balance - CADSIM Plus - is used, that allows real-time simulations of the entire process and water and mass balances to be made.

Intelli-Tissue™ 900 technological line includes sections as follows: Intelli-Jet VT™ headbox; Intelli-Former™ (Crescent Former type); Intelli- Press™ (single nip); Intelli- Reel™ .


   

The benefits of PMP Intelli- Tissue™ 900 machine are as follows:

  • Complete line - scope of delivery from stock preparation through the tissue machine to rewinder
  • PMP assures on time delivery (nine months if required) and a very fast start-up curve
  • European technology - based on the PMP experience, key components, such as Intelli- Jet V™ headbox, are manufactured in PMP headquarters (Jelenia Góra, Poland) that assure solid and reliable product with the highest safety and functionality standards. At the same time, to achieve the optimum cost solution, other elements are manufactured at PMP's new facility: PMP IB (Changzhou) Machinery & Technology, located in China, based on European technology
  • High return on investment - according to PMP estimated ROI is 4-5 years including the investment itself as well as maintenance costs
  • User friendly - PMP's tissue machine is designed to assure good operational and maintenance access to all important areas that allows the user to minimize operating or maintenance installation stops (the cantilevered construction minimizes felt change to two hours)
  • Environmentally friendly - low media consumption helps to protect the environment,
  • Low media consumption - PMP's design saves on steam consumption, electric power and fresh water
  • Entry level solution - PMP's design assures simplicity in operation that makes starting a tissue business easier. Moreover, PMP supports its partner during the entire period of the execution of the project in different aspects, including help in the proposal stage to choose the right size and system. PMP continues this support through project management and customer service and training of the operating personnel
  • Designed in 3D - the production process is designed to achieve the highest possible quality tissue. At the same time, the entire tissue machine is 3-D designed (SolidWorks) to avoid mistakes and to reduce risk to a minimum.
