Robuschi har alltid varit en ledande aktör inom pappersindustrin med sitt utbud av maskiner: från centrifugalpumpar för pappersmassa till pumpar för vätskor (rena eller med föroreningar), från vakuumpumpar för vätskerörelser till ROBOX evolution lågtrycksfläktar utan olja, som är idealiska för reningsverk och vakuumtillämpningar.
MTC grundades 1995 i Porcari, nära Lucca, av en grupp högt specialiserade tekniker med lång erfarenhet av tillverkning av maskiner för pappersbearbetning. Företaget har alltid gett sina kunder en helhetslösning genom att ta hand om försäljning, konstruktion, produktion, provning, logistik och installation, för att inte tala om eftermarknadsservice för sina maskiner för vikta produkter och industrirullar.
Det utbredda behovet av personlig anpassning innebär att MTC-maskiner och -system skiljer sig från varandra, vilket leder till en "skräddarsydd" produkt. Med över 300 sålda moduler över hela världen spelar MTC en viktig roll i den internationella scenen för tillverkare av denna typ av maskiner och erbjuder moderna, innovativa lösningar tillsammans med snabb och pålitlig service.
Vakuumblåsare (ROBOX evolution /V och /DV) används för att hålla pappersarket fast vid valsarna så att det kan omvandlas. Robuschi-lösningen applicerar vakuumet via torra vakuumaggregat som garanterar energibesparingar på mer än 15 % jämfört med traditionell teknik med flytande ringar. Eftersom det inte behövs något vatten som servicevätska, försvinner också de relativa reningskostnaderna. Dessutom erbjuder den enklare underhåll och lägre kostnader, enkel installation och integrering i systemet samt större flexibilitet för att bättre kunna anpassa sig till de operativa variablerna i pappersförädlingsprocessen.
Where did the idea to include Robuschi products in your manufacturing process spring from? And when?
"The analysis of the production process for managing the sheets of paper led us to identify a number of suppliers who could meet our needs. MTC and Robuschi had already established a partnership in the late '90s, and this was strengthened in the following years. Thanks to this special relationship and the invaluable contribution of Robuschi, MTC was able to carry forward the development of its tissue production lines.
MTC began its collaboration with Robuschi by installing traditional blowers for vacuum generation of up to 50% on the transformation rollers, because it has always focused its attention on energy costs and reduced water consumption, unlike its main competitors who used liquid ring vacuum pumps and/or vane pumps.
The lobed suction unit enables air to be filtered and sucked out without damaging the machine, thereby simplifying the system as there is no need for water treatment; this means greatly reduced maintenance costs and highly reliable machines. In addition, the lobed blower is a volumetric machine, so it alters its capacity with the changing rotation speed and can therefore keep the level of vacuum constant as the transit section changes (sheet porosity); the result is a notable reduction in energy consumption, yet constant parameters.
Right from the start, we opted for ROBOX blower units which, when combined with the proven reliability and easy use and maintenance of the low-pulse 3-lobe blower, have brought the benefits of the other ROBOX characteristics in terms of compact size, easy installation, low sound emissions and simple, reduced maintenance. With MTC's subsequent development of paper transformation technology, the collaboration with Robuschi then extended to the air injection blowers of the DV range; these further widen the field of use to far higher vacuum levels (up to 90%).
This has allowed MTC to apply the utmost performance flexibility and operating safety when managing those variables linked with transformation (the type of paper and fold, the number of sheets, the roller operating speed, the run-stop alternation of the transformation machine). For the DV range too, Robuschi immediately made the complete Robox range package available to MTC, and also displayed its willingness to develop and apply some customised features for the standard package, to fully meet the specific needs of MTC and its users."
Does the energy saving aspect influence your choices?
"Energy savings are a categorical requirement for the future, not to mention an aspect that the customer pays special attention to. With this in mind, MTC has developed its own technology and applied it to the management of the Robuschi blowers as well, hence guaranteeing considerable energy savings for the customer. Throughout this process, the versatility of the Robuschi package has been a key factor in pursuing and attaining MTC's savings-related goals."
In your experience as plant engineers for the paper industry, which aspects are currently considered a priority when choosing one technological solution over another?
"Undoubtedly reliability along with service, high performance, system simplicity and competitive costs."
