Annual Report 2008 - Siempelkamp

Energy Systems
Siempelkamp Energy Systems GmbH, Hanover (SES), a
solely owned subsidiary of Siempelkamp Maschinen- und
Anlagenbau GmbH & Co. KG, Krefeld, supplies complete
concepts for energy plants.
Milestones
After the takeover of Metso Panelboard GmbH by the
Siempelkamp Group effective October 2007, 2008 became the
first full business year for SES as part of the Group.
During the course of this first full business year the product
portfolio and procedures were further standardized and revised
according to those of the Siempelkamp machine factory.
Effective July 1, 2008, the service and spare parts business
was sold to Siempelkamp Maschinen- und Anlagenbau
GmbH & Co. KG. The corresponding inventory was transferred
in December. All customers worldwide are now receiving these
competent services from one source via the distribution
network of the Siempelkamp Maschinen- und Anlagenbau
GmbH & Co. KG.
Since then SES is concentrating on the business area of
energy systems. We achieved important milestones with two
projects: At the thin MDF board production plant of the
Pfleiderer AG in the Polish Grajewo, a power station with a
total combustion capacity of 66 MW passed the acceptance
test. Technical key data include: 37 t/h of steam at 276 bar(ü),
7 MW of thermal oil capacity and a fuel gas capacity of 28.5
MW for the dryer.

Machinery and Plants Business Unit _ Energy Systems
In the company’s first full year as part of the Siempelkamp Group, the specialist for energy system concepts, Siempelkamp Energy Systems
GmbH (SES), has positioned itself with an attractive business portfolio.
With over 20 years of experience and 50 energy systems delivered we can offer complete engineering know-how and technology to supply
stable process heat to each customer in the panelboard industry (MDF, particleboard and OSB plants). Complete engineering know-how as
well as custom-built technologies down to the last detail are the foundation for our company’s excellent reputation.
Services and upgrades of energy plants are also part of our supply.
Another of our strong points, which is also economical for the customers, is the conscious handling of raw materials. SES energy plants utilize
waste materials from panelboard production to produce most of the energy required to run a plant: flue gases for the dryer, steam for the
refiner, and thermal oil for the press. Our plant can be fueled by anything from bark and start-up fibers to sander dust and rejected panels
or low-grade fuel from outside the plant such as recycled wood material unsuitable for production.
Another energy plant was accepted by our Australian customer
Laminex in 2008. At the customer’s MDF line we replaced an
existing energy system. The new energy station will provide the
Laminex plant with a total combustion capacity of 24 MW. The
press, the steam generator and the air preheater are supplied
by a thermal oil heater with a capacity of 14.3 MW, while the
flue gas capacity for the dryer amounts to 10.4 MW.
