The new system produces fibers from rubberwood for high-quality medium density fiberboard, significantly increasing the mill’s production capacity.
The heart of the 30 t/h system is the high-efficiency pressurized refiner, which delivers superior fiber quality at reduced energy consumption. ANDRITZ also supplied a plug-screw feeder designed to optimize dewatering prior to refining, ensuring efficient pre-steaming and reducing specific energy consumption.
This successful start-up strengthens the partnership between Wisewoods and ANDRITZ and further solidifies ANDRITZ's position as a leading global supplier to the panelboard industry.
Wisewoods Co., Ltd (wisewoods.co.th) is a renowned player in the wood panel industry, manufacturing high-quality MDF products for the Middle East and Asia.
