Martco LLC produced the first board on its new multi-opening OSB line from Dieffenbacher in Corrigan, Texas, United States. It’s the third plant of its type that Martco has ordered from Dieffenbacher. In 2006, the company headquartered in Alexandria, Louisiana, commissioned its first Dieffenbacher multi-opening OSB line in Oakdale, Louisiana. In April 2018, the second line started production in Corrigan, at the same site where the third line is now located.
For the third line, Martco ordered from Dieffenbacher a 4-head forming station, a CombiLine – which transforms continuous forming into discontinuous mat preparation without raw material loss – and an 8 x 24 feet, 16-opening press. In addition, Dieffenbacher provided the line’s electrics and automation and an Intelligent Air Management System. That system improves the production hall’s climate by capturing concentrated and diffuse emission sources and controls the infeed and outfeed air streams.
