Cartiera Socarpi to Convert Fourdrinier Tissue Machine to Crescent Former

Cartiera Socarpi, Lucca, Italy, has ordered a rebuild from Recard, also located in Lucca, that will convert its existing Recard fourdrinier tissue machine into a crescent former unit. The rebuilt machine will have a designed operating speed of 1,500 m/min and a trim of 3,000 mm at the reel. It will be installed this summer, with startup planned for late summer to early fall.
