Kipas Söke has ordered a #RunEco vacuum system from Runtech for their containerboard machine PM3 in Söke, Turkey. Delivery includes eight EP600 Turbo Blowers and EcoDrop water separators.
Runtech’s variable speed turbo blowers are adjustable, which makes them optimal in greenfield installations where the true vacuum need is often revealed only after papermaking line start up. Capacity adjustment allows the vacuum system to be optimized quickly without throttling and spare air losses.
The 9,100-mm-wide (wire) board machine will produce recycled fluting, testliner and kraft top testliner grades with a basis weight range of 60-110 g/m2. The design speed of the machine will be 1,800 m/min and the annual capacity approximately 650,000 tonnes.
