Abstract
In our Kushiro Mill, we started up the L-1 M/C in October 1974, which at that time was the largest daily production machine in Japan. Originally the machine had two inlets and had a wire width of 7, 100 mm. It had the capacity of producing 700 T/D of linerboard. Since then, the L-1 M/C was rebuilt for the purpose of improving product quality and increasing machine speed.
Presently, we produce an average of 1, 370 T/D of kraft pulp liner, with a maximum operation speed of 900 m/min. In July 1997 we remodeled the No.1 inlet to improve product quality. Modulejet, the name of the inlet, also carries consistency profiling equipment.
The following report describes the operational experience of the Modulejet inlet from the initial start-up to the present time.
