Softys has selected Toscotec for the supply of a complete tissue line at their facility in Altamira, Mexico. Scheduled for start-up in the first quarter of 2025, the new AHEAD 2.2 line (PM5) will be supplied on a turnkey basis.
Superior Drying Efficiency
The AHEAD 2.2 machine guarantees the highest available drying efficiency through the combination of TT NextPress shoe press, TT SYD Steel Yankee Dryer, and high efficiency TT Hoods. The shoe press is equipped with TT TurboDryer, which uses heat recovered from the air system to reduce water viscosity and enhance the shoe press’s de-watering action to significantly increase post-press dryness. The Yankee hoods also feature TT Swing, an innovative solution that delivers maximum flexibility and energy saving in regulating the air system operation mode. Based on the production needs, TT Swing can be easily adjusted to run as a parallel system (two separate circuits of heated air, one to the wet end hood and the other to the dry end), a cascade system (air from dry end hood flows into wet end hood before recirculating), or a hybrid system configuration (heated air to the wet end hood and only extraction from the dry end) in order to guarantee optimal energy efficiency in the drying section of the tissue machine.
