SCA Dryer Rebuild at Witzenhausen to Improve Runnability, Quality, Energy Use

Print Print this article | Send to Colleague

SCA Containerboard will shutdown the machine at its Witzenhausen, Germany, mill for 17 days, from June 20 to July 7, to move forward with planned developments, including finalizing the rebuild of the last two groups of the pre-dryer section that involves installation of a new hood. The rebuild will improve runnability of the machine and positively impact quality of all of the mill's products. Installation of the new hood will also contribute to the mill's energy savings program. The project will have no impact on output capacity of the mill.

Built in 1975, Witzenhausen, situated in the heart of Germany, is equipped with a gap former – fourdrinier machine. Its product range includes SCA Testliner 3, SCA Medium HP, and SCA Medium.
