Raw Material Handling
Set the right basis for your paper production
Raw material handling is of central importance for paper production. Since the raw material is delivered in different forms, e.g. loose material, paper bales, different sizes, dimensions and grades, the machines used must meet these requirements and be able to be applied flexibly and yet precisely. In order to guarantee the optimum quality of the new produced paper, state-of-the-art techniques should already be used in this process step.
Our solutions for waste paper handling
The purpose of a Secondary Fiber Handling System with high consistency slushing is to dewire recovered paper bales automatically and safely and to break them up into a nearly loose condition. For this process step we offer a variaty of solutions which you will find on this page.
DMOB Mobile Dewiring Device
Quick and, above all, safe dewiring of recovered paper bales is guaranteed in paper production with the mobile dewiring arms from Voith. Our customers benefit from:
- Safe dewiring and wire disposal directly from driver's seat
- High availability due to low maintenance demand
- Long service life
- Easy mounting and operation
DLAT Bale Dewiring Machine
The Bale Dewiring Machine DLAT ensures a quick and safe dewiring of recovered paper bales with horizontal binding wires. This system offers:
- Safe dewiring
- Fast and efficient coiling of the binding wires into compact coils
- Reduced cost for man power
- High availability
- Long lifetime
- Easy to service and maintain
WCMA Wire Cutting Machines
The WCE wire-cutting machine is designed for low-consistency systems and can be integrated in already existing apron belts. Different machine types are available depending on how the wire is wound and how the conveyor is moving. All types have a solid and rugged design suitable for operation outside and ensure a long service life. A factory-provided functional test and preassembly of all functional components ensures a minimal start-up time.
Our solutions for virgin pulp handling
The purpose of a Virgin Pulp Handling System is to prepare, pre-sort and dewire units i.e. bales of delivered raw materials. For this process step we offer a variaty of solutions which you will find on this page.
BC Bale Centering Device
The Bale Centering Device BC aligns single virgin pulp bales to the system center line for further handling. This product offers the following advantages:
- Exact aligning of bales
- High availability
- Long lifetime
- Easy to service and maintain
BT-C Clamp Type Bale Turner
The Clamp Type Bale Turner BT-C turns dewired virgin pulp bales 180° at once. Removal of wrapping material is possible on the following conveyor. Our customers benefit from:
- Minimum space requirements
- Higher capacity than a Fork Type Bale Turner BT-F
- High availability
- Long lifetime
- Easy to service and maintain
CC, CC-D & CC-T Chain Conveyors
Chain conveyors of different designs are the preferred conveyors in virgin pulp handling systems. They are used for transportation and buffering of units and single bales, as well as for manual dewiring and wrapping removal. Our Chain Conveyors CC, CC-D and CC-T are characterised by a long service life and extremely easy maintenance.
CC-R & CC-TR Chain Conveyors
Rotating chain conveyors, stationary or travelling, are used when the direction of transportation in the virgin pulp handling system needs to be changed. This is suitable for units as well as for bales. Our CC-R and CC-TR Chain Conveyors offer a long lifetime and are wear resistant and easy to maintain.
DSU Unit Destacker & DSS Stack Destacker
The destacker types DSU and DSS destack pulp units quickly and efficiently. Using those systems offer the following benefits:
- Safe destacking
- Reduced cost for man power
- High availability
- Easy to service and maintain
DVIR Single Bale Dewiring Machine
The DVIR represents the third generation of our dewiring machines for virgin pulp bales. For the first time, all available modern handling technologies were incorporated into one machine. This offers the following advantages:
- Safe dewiring of pulp bales
- Fast and efficient coiling of the single bale wires
- Reduced cost for man power
- High availability
- Long lifetime
- Easy to service and maintain
HPC Hinged Belt Conveyors
Hinged Plate Conveyors are used for the disposal of wire coils. The wire coils are transported from either the unit dewiring machine or the single bale dewiring machine for pulp bales or recovered paper bales to a collecting point, for example container or wire coiling machine.
MD Metal Detector
Metal Detectors are used after automatic bale dewiring machines for detection of magnetic and non-magnetic metals in the raw material. This is particulary necessary for the production of highquality papers.
MWC Manual Wire Cutting Device
The Manual Wire Cutting Device MWC cuts binding wires around recovered paper bales and pulp bales. This system offers the following advantages:
- A pneumatically operated pair of cutter blades makes cutting much easier
- Straightforward changing of cutter blades by the operators
- Standard support, moveable over the working area
- Spring balanced weight compensation of the wire cutter
UDM Unit Dewiring Machine
The Unit Dewiring Machines UDM ensure a quick and efficient dewiring of pulp units. For unstable units it is the preferable machine due to its stack fixing from the top.
WCOI Wire Coiling Machine
The Wire Coiling Machine WCOI coils efficiently all binding wires from pulp and recovered paper bales into compact bundles. Our customers benefit from:
- Quick and efficient coiling of binding wires from pulp and recovered paper bales
- The unit is delivered in a ready-to-work condition, only the electric and pneumatic connection is required
- Free-standing robust design, anchoring not necessary
