Powerdry At Kangas Pm 4

摘要

In June 2007, two new PowerDry Plus air dryers were started up at M-real's Kangas PM 4 fine paper machine in Finland, replacing old gas infrared (IR) dryers.rnThe mill had two aging gas infrared dryers located after the coating stations and in need of a big service. As changing the IR dryer emitters is very expensive, the mill was looking for a maintenance-free alternative. M-real did not want to invest in technology that would need to be changed all over again in a few years. So, instead of buying new emitters, the mill chose the almost servicefree PowerDry Plus air dryers. The greater drying capacity and energy-saving potential of the PowerDry Plus air dryersrnwere also very attractive and important features. The dryers represented a perfect solution for the needs.
