Paper Machinery Divisions:
One of the fastest SC paper machines –
large order placed by Lang Papier GmbH,
Ettringen, Germany
After joining Myllikoski of Finland, the
Bavarian paper manufacturer Gebrüder
Lang GmbH, Ettringen, realigned production
to high grade uncoated printing
papers with high recovered fibre content.
As always, the goal here was optimal
quality at lowest possible production
costs and furnish prices (up to 85%
DIP). In the meantime, this company has
become a pioneer in online calendered
paper development and production.
Based on years of fruitful teamwork in
plant modernization and product quality
enhancement, Voith Sulzer Papierma-
schinen GmbH received an order in
May 1998 for the biggest investment
ever made by Lang Paper GmbH. This
comprised a complete new production
line for newsprint and SC papers, with an
annual output capacity of 280,000
tonnes.
When the new COMPACT PM 5 starts up,
the existing PM 3 will be taken out of
service. The Ettringen mill will then have
a total capacity of about 420,000 tonnes
p.a., comprising about 160,000 t.p.a. of
newsprint and 260,000 t.p.a. of magazine
paper.
