Following recent investment in a new dilution headbox at BM3, Pankaboard has upgraded its BM2 machine
Cartonboard producer Pankaboard has upgraded its BM2 machine, which produces folding boxboards, specialising in the heavier weight substances.
In early 2016 the company made a significant investment to upgrade the formation control on BM2. As a result of this new investment, the fibre distribution was reengineered and optimised for enhanced smoothness and converting performance.
‘Through this targeted investment and dedicated product development we have been able to reach a superior formation that results in several benefits for our customers,’ said Petri Saastamoinen, mill manager at Pankaboard.
The development will provide an improved surface for lamination, and improved runnability at high speed packaging lines.
