Sep 23, 2009. /Lesprom Network/. The Metso-supplied uncoated papermaking line delivered to MCC Paper Yinhe Co., Ltd. in Linqing city of Shandong province, China, came successfully on stream on July 26, 2009. The new 5.8-m-wide line produces around 200,000 metric tons of uncoated fine paper annually, Metso reported. “This is the first modern fast-speed paper machine line for our company and we are happy that the machine was successfully started up as planned even though the schedule was tight,” says Wan Zhonghua, Vice President and Executive Vice General Manager of MCC Yinhe. “Cooperation between Metso and Yinhe has always been good. Now the machine speed is 1,250 m/min. Given that production has been running less than two months since start-up, our quality still needs to improve but we believe that with Metso’s professional support we will reach our target.” Metso's scope of supply comprised a complete all-online paper machine from headbox to reel with related stock preparation and air systems, as well as a chemicals handling plant for the whole paper machine line. The line’s technological features include a ValFormer shoe blade hybrid former and a ValHood hood. An extensive metsoDNA automation package further contained process, machine and quality controls, runnability and condition monitoring systems, and Kajaani analyzers. MCC Paper Yinhe is a state-owned company operating two mills in Linqing city with some 6,000 employees. MCC (China Metallurgical Group Corporation) is one of the largest equipment manufacturers in China.
