ATS Techno recently engaged in a technical alliance with Cylinder Resurfacing Company (UK) Limited, marking a significant stride in the realm of thermal spray coating and grinding on Yankee/MG cylinders for the Indian paper industry. Renowned in the Indian paper industry, ATS Techno specializes in on-site coating and grinding services for a spectrum including Yankee/MG cylinders, dryers, rewinder drums, and pope reels. Cylinder Resurfacing Company (CRC), a UK-based enterprise, stands as a global authority, offering advanced coating and grinding solutions exclusively tailored for Yankee/MG cylinders, specially designed for high-speed machinery worldwide producing tissue and lower GSM poster paper.
The burgeoning demand for tissue consumption in India has spurred growth within the tissue-making paper industry. Given the pivotal role of the Yankee in tissue machines and the pursuit of superior tissue quality and prolonged Yankee/MG cylinder lifespan, metal spray coating stands as an imperative facet.
Under this collaborative venture, CRC is set to impart cutting-edge technical expertise in metal spray coating onto Yankee/MG cylinders to ATS Techno. ATS Techno will harness the prowess of CRC’s compound crowning grinding machine, a testament to innovation and precision. This metal spray coating demonstrates significant advantages, particularly in enhancing MG Cylinders’ efficiency in producing tissue & lower GSM posters and kraft paper. Its application ensures prolonged service life and elevates the quality standards of paper production to new heights.

The necessity for Yankee coating stems from two principal objectives: safeguarding the cylinder’s structural integrity by preventing the degradation of its shell thickness, and attaining augmented surface technological properties. CRC’s Yankee coating technology, known as “CREPEKOTE,” fortifies the cylinder with hardness, durability, and superior wear resistance, culminating in amplified production rates, paper quality enhancement, and extended doctor blade life. Notably, it minimizes the frequency of grinding while enhancing the adhesion of organic coatings, ultimately empowering paper manufacturers with top-tier quality paper.
Furthermore, the advent of ATS Techno’s capability to conduct coating and grinding without the need to dismantle the Yankee/MG Cylinder hood signifies a pivotal advancement. The installation of the grinding machine on the doctor’s blade side translates to reduced downtime, ensuring expedited completion of coating and grinding operations. Noteworthy is the compact nature of this grinding machine, eliminating the necessity to disassemble and reinstall key machine components. This streamlined approach reduces labor hours for maintenance teams and expedites production restart times.
