Print Print this article | Send to Colleague

Metso, Finland, reports that it has received several measurement orders from Chinese paper mills. The orders were from Jiangsu Jinhuang Paper Co., Hebei Changtai Paper Industry Co., Anhui Huatai Forest Pulp & Paper Co., Guangdong Huatai Paper Co., and Wuhan Jin Feng Huang Paper Industry Co.

Metso will deliver to Anhui Huatai a dozen consistency transmitters, one of them being a Metso OC, an optical consistency transmitter. The upcoming delivery for the rebuilding of a pulp factory also includes several Metso SP (blade) and Metso Rotary transmitters, as well as equipment for cooking liquor measurement, among other things.

The Jiangsu Jinhuang order is for several Metso SP (blade) transmitters for a greenfield factory. Another greenfield project customer is the Hebei Changtai Paper Industry, which will be installing a linerboard project as well as a plasterboard paper machine. The Wuhan Jin Feng Huang mill is also among the company's recent major customers, ordering two new board machines (PM 3 and PM 5), as well as 16 Metso SP consistency transmitters. All of the orders from the Chinese papermaking companies are due to be delivered this fall.

The Metso optical consistency transmitter is a new member in the family that uses state of the art technology with a new design, offering reliable measurement at all times, the company explains. In mechanical pulping (e.g. TMP, GW, and CTMP), typical applications are grinders, cyclone cleaners, latency removal, screening, and low consistency refining. In chemical pulping, the new transmitter can be used for screening, washing, refining, and drying machine applications.
