Metso-supplied Propapier PM_2 Sets New Containerboard Machine Speed Record

摘要

On November 25, 2010, only eight months after its start-up in March this year, the new PM_2 paper machine at Propapier PM_2 GmbH in Eisenhiit-tenstadt, Germany, set a new containerboard machine 24-hour world record of 1,620 m/min. It is thus the world's first containerboard machine to exceed the 1,600 m/min speed level and the first to exceed 1 mpm. The 10,85-m-wide PM_2 produced 2,049 tonnes of corrugating medium (Wellenstoff) at an average basis weight of go g/m2 and a machine efficiency of 93,8 ％. Mill Manager Goetz Herold and Pro- duction Manager Peter Resvanis of Propapier PM2 GmbH both appraise the entire Metso and Propapier production and technical teams for their excellent support, and look forward to making a new world record trial with 70 and 80 g/m2 paper in January 2011.
