Austria-headed international technology group Andritz AG (ANDRITZ) has announced that it has successfully completed the start-up of a pressurized refining system supplied to Biyang Huifeng Wood Industry Board Co., Ltd. at its MDF production plant in Biyang, Henan Province, China. With the new pressurized refining system, the customer is capable of processing poplar wood chips as raw material.
Established in 2017 Biyang Huifeng Wood Industry Board is mainly active in the wood-working and panelboard industry.
The heart of the new system is the innovative ANDRITZ 54-1CP refiner, which features high energy efficiency. The scope of supply also included a maintenance-friendly 20” discharger with the latest C-feeder concept, a compensator, and a proven 20” ribbon feeder.
The excellent operation of our first pressurized refining system installed by ANDRITZ in our Jiangsu mill convinced us to trust once more in the know-how of ANDRITZ’s panelboard experts. The successful and timely start-up of our new line has proven that our decision was the right one, said Weng Duansheng, Vice General Manager at Biyang Huifeng.
The successful start-up of the new pressurized refining system in Biyang adds to the strong position for the company in the Chinese panelboard industry, with more than 180 installations.
We always aim to continuously optimize our technology and services for our customers. Thus, it’s a pleasure to work with a forward-thinking customer like Biyang Huifeng, who values our efforts, said Michael Rupp, VP for Panelboard Systems at the ANDRITZ Paper, Fiber and Recycling Division.
