Valmet introduces new technology – Stora Enso attracted
Valmet has introduced a new patented aqua cooling technology which will improve the calendering results compared to usual paper production conditions. Stora Enso has decided to invest in this new technology at their BM 4 packaging board machine in Ingerois, Finland.
“Aqua cooling calendering technology will complement Valmet's bulk-saving calendering offering, which includes the revolutionary metal belt calendering as the ultimate light weighting solution,” according to the company statement.
Valmet has also received its first contract for the delivery of aqua cooling technology from Stora Enso. The pulp and paper manufacturer will use this technology for the rebuild of BM 4 packaging board machine in Ingerois, Finland.
The rebuilt production line is expected to start production in September 2015.
