The Metso-supplied papermaking line of Propapier PM2 GmbH came successfully on stream on March 15, 2010 at Propapier’s greenfield mill site in Eisenhüttenstadt in Germany. The new PM 2 line will produce up to 650,000 tonnes of testliner and fluting grades annually in the basis weight range of 70-130 g/m2 out of 100%recycled fiber.
The gigantic 10.85-m-wide PM 2 features state-of-the-art paper making and automation technology by Metso, from the stock preparation plant to the OptiConcept paper machine. The design speed of the machine is 1,900 m/min. A two-year cooperation agreement will support the systematic optimization of the production and quality of the line.
