Jan. 14, 2019 - ANDRITZ has received an order from Kabel Premium Pulp & Paper to supply a new ATMP (Advanced Thermo Mechanical Pulp) line to their mill in Hagen, Germany. The ATMP line utilizes a highly optimized process design with modular process steps that ensure enhanced fiber properties at reduced energy consumption.

ANDRITZ will refurbish second-hand machines that Kabel Premium bought from a former magazine paper production line in Germany. In addition, ANDRITZ will install several new, key equipment units: a new MSD Impressafiner to delaminate and impregnate chips even more gently and efficiently as well as new fiber centrifuges to guarantee high quality fiber/steam separation. Two second-hand and refurbished ANDRITZ high-consistency refiners will form part of the first and second refining stages.

The scope of supply also includes the DCS system, complete installation of the scope delivered, basic engineering, commissioning, and start-up.

Start-up is scheduled for the final quarter of 2019.
