Metso Paper, together with its Chinese joint venture company Valmet-Xian, will supply a complete paper finishing line to Sun Paper in Yanzhou, in the province of Shandong in China. The finishing line will be installed on Sun Paper’s new fine paper machine, which was ordered from Metso in January 2003. The paper machine will start up in August 2004 and the finishing line in August 2005. The value of the order is close to EUR 40 million. The PM 19 finishing line will have a width of 4870 mm at the coater. The design speed of the coating machine will be 1500 m/min. The line will include a re-reeler, a coating machine, air dryers, a reel, a winder as well as a soft calender for matte grades, which will be installed on-line with the coater. Calendering of glossy grades will be performed with the off-line calender, which has a design speed of 1,600 m/min. The delivery will also include a paper quality control and condition and runnability monitoring systems from Metso Automation.
