Global Hygiene, a French company producing hygiene and tissue products, has reached an agreement with PMP (Paper Machinery Producer) for the design, production and commissioning of a new reel Intelli-Reel® to be installed at one of the mills the group operates in France. The contract was signed in July, 2020. This is the first order from this customer for PMP.
The machine produces tissue (basis range from 12 to 24 gsm) from virgin fibers. Its operating speed is 1600 mpm and its reel trim is 5400 mm. A replacement of the reel section is caused by a weak condition of an existing unit and a necessity of implementation of changes related to safety standards.
PMP Intelli-Reel® is a section designed by using state-of-the-art technology to ensure a precisely repeatable, efficient and safe winding process. It is characterized by simple and open structure enabling easy control. Reels provided by PMP guarantees perfect parent roll and continuous & high speed reeling process.
PMP will provide the complete new reel Intelli-Reel® with controls, a hydraulic unit, necessary installations on site, a tail cutter and controls (PLC). Moreover, the scope of supply contains assembly of a new component and disassembly of an existing one. A finalization of the project is scheduled for spring, 2021.
So far, PMP has executed over 100 projects (on 6 continents) of reel section deliveries for tissue and paper machines.
