Toscotec will supply an entire dryer section rebuild to Hamburger Turkey, part of the Hamburger Containerboard Group, at their paper mill in Çorlu in Northern Turkey. The project focuses on their containerboard machine (PM3) and is planned for the end of 2024.
Targets: production increase and basis weight range expansion
The rebuild has two main targets. Firstly, the replacement of the existing cast-iron dryer cans with Toscotec’s custom-sized TT SteelDryers will increase the sheet drying width by 90 mm while maintaining the same face length and using the existing machine frame. This will lead to an increase of PM3’s production capacity.
The second target is to expand the basis weight range and produce lower grammages to enter a new market for lighter testliner products through an improvement in the wet section.

South African tissue producer Jumbo Centre has started up an AHEAD 1.8 tissue line supplied by Toscotec at their Johannesburg facility. This is a repeat order for Toscotec after the successful installation in 2020 of another complete tissue machine at the same mill.
The AHEAD 1.8 machine has a sheet trim width of 2,750 mm, an operating speed of 1,800 m/min and a production capacity of more than 30,000 tpy. It is equipped with a new generation design TT NextPress shoe press, a third-generation TT SYD Steel Yankee Dryer, and high-efficiency TT Hood. The scope of supply covers the complete production line from the bale handling and stock preparation systems to the electrification and control system of the tissue machine. The associated services include detailed engineering, erection supervision, commissioning, training, and start-up.
Itzik Nikfard and Rafi Nikfard, Directors of Jumbo Centre, said, “This investment marks a new important stage of expansion for our business. The choice of technology is key in supporting the continuous growth and success of our SnowSoft brand. Toscotec’s machines deliver premium tissue quality, high production efficiency, and energy savings which equip us to succeed in the market.”

Norwegian cardboard producer Ranheim Paper & Board started up PM5 at its Ranheim paper mill after a dryer section rebuild supplied by Toscotec. The rebuild has been completed according to schedule. Shortly after, Ranheim Paper & Board has placed a new order with Toscotec for the second phase of PM5’s technological upgrade, which is scheduled for autumn 2024. PM5 produces greyboard and coreboard in the basis weight range from 220 to 540 gsm.
Phase one: targets accomplished
This start-up concludes the first phase of the rebuild of PM5’s dryer section. The target of improving the production efficiency of the dryer section by better controlling the felt tensions and felt guiding has been fully accomplished. Toscotec also re-designed several felt loops to be internal and thereby improved the machine’s cleanliness.

Europap Tezol Kağit started up a Toscotec-supplied AHEAD 2.2 tissue machine at its integrated production facility in Mersin, Turkey. The new high efficiency line started producing high quality tissue immediately after start-up. The project also included two OPTIMA slitter rewinders, with the first already in operation, and the second scheduled for installation soon. This is a repeat order for Toscotec who also installed a TT SYD Steel Yankee Dryer on their PM1 in 2012.
The AHEAD 2.2 line features a sheet trim width of 2,920 mm, an operating speed of 2,100 m/min, and an annual production capacity of over 40,000 tons. It is equipped with Toscotec’s upgraded design TT NextPress shoe press, a third-generation TT SYD, TT BulkyReel for optimal preservation of bulk and softness, and high efficiency TT Hood with the automatic balancing system TT DryingEquilibrium.
The supply included the complete stock preparation system, Toscotec’s patented TT SAF® DD (Short Approach Flow system with Double Dilution) to ensure electrical consumption reduction, as well as electrification and controls, and dust and mist removal systems. Toscotec delivered a comprehensive service package with detailed engineering, erection supervision, commissioning, training, and start-up assistance.

Graphic paper manufacturer Les Papeteries de Clairefontaine started up PM6 after a dryer section rebuild supplied by Toscotec at its Etival Clairefontaine mill in France. The machine produces graphic paper in the basis weight range from 60 to 100 gsm.
The project was focused on PM6’s pre-dryer section for which Toscotec supplied TT SteelDryers designed for an operating steam pressure of 10 barg, as well as an upgrade of the machine frame. The associated services included the complete erection with supervision, commissioning, and start-up assistance.
The rebuild has achieved the target of increasing PM6’s drying face length without changing the overall width of the machine frame.

Panda Paper Mills (1997), a subsidiary of Israeli leading manufacturer Sano Enterprises, has selected Toscotec for the supply of a complete drying section rebuild of PM1 at their Netanya production facility in Israel. PM1 produces high quality tissue from recycled fibres for the Away from Home market. The upgrade aims to substantially increase the machine’s drying capacity and is planned for the second half of 2024.
Toscotec will supply a TT SYD Steel Yankee Dryer of latest generation, the entire steam and condensate removal system and high-efficiency TT Hoods. The service package includes the engineering, erection supervision, training, commissioning and start-up assistance. The new dryer section is set to slash PM1’s energy consumptions and increase production efficiency.

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.
