Toscotec will supply an entire dryer section rebuild to Hamburger Turkey, part of the Hamburger Containerboard Group, at their paper mill in Çorlu in Northern Turkey. The project focuses on their containerboard machine (PM3) and is planned for the end of 2024.
The rebuild has two main targets. Firstly, the replacement of the existing cast-iron dryer cans with Toscotec's custom-sized TT SteelDryers will increase the sheet drying width by 90 mm while maintaining the same face length and using the existing machine frame. This will lead to an increase of PM3's production capacity.
The second target is to expand the basis weight range and produce lower grammages to enter a new market for lighter testliner products through an improvement in the wet section.
Toscotec will supply thirty seven TT SteelDryers for a full upgrade of the dryer section and new TT UniRoll vacuum rolls in the first dryer group. The scope also includes all the mechanical drives and doctor blades of the dryer section. Toscotec will also upgrade PM3's press section and the sheet stabilization system from the press to the second dryers' group. The service package includes the erection supervision, training, commissioning, and start-up assistance.
Hamburger Turkey, part of the Hamburger Containerboard Group, is a leading manufacturer of high-quality corrugated base paper. It has two production facilities: in Çorlu and in Denizli, where it manufactures corrugated case material products.
Toscotec designs and manufactures machines, systems and components for the production of tissue and paper & board.
