Quanta Paper – 30 ADM Tons/Day Tissue Machine

On December 9, 2008, the former Kimberly Clark Paper Machine 1 (PM 1) restarted as PM 5 of Quanta Paper Corp. Mabalacat, Pampanga. With only the Yankee dryer and suction press from the former machine, an extensive rebuild was undertaken by R. Dan and Co. Inc. based on their “Eco Tissue Design”.

The following “Eco Tissue” features were added:

• Crescent Former
• Step Diffuser Headbox (from Andritz)
• Octopus CD profiler with integrated pulsation elimination tank
• Compact Felt Run
• White Water De-aeration System
• High Efficiency Hood
• Conformatic Cleaning/Creping Doctors
• Pope Reel
• Rockwell Sectional Drive
• ABB - DCS System
• Jaasch - QCG System
• Thermo – Compressor Steam and Condensate System
• Central lubrication system

The result was a machine which could run to 800 m/min., dry 43 Tons Per Day (TPD), run minimum of 14 GSM upt to maximum 40 GSM basis weight, using recycled fiber.

Currently, the machine runs economic to premium grades of toilet and facial tissues.
