SCA is successfully utilizing Voith's digital and automation solutions with the aim of optimizing the production efficiency of its new XcelLine PM 2. Last year, the leading full-line supplier Voith successfully commissioned the paper machine at its Obbola site.

Voith has commissioned DS Smith to rebuild its PM 4 at its Viana site in Northern Portugal to increase production capacity and efficiency. The mill produces 400,000 tons of kraftliner and top kraftliner per year.

Voith delivered effective commissioning trainings for the November 2022 start-up of the world’s largest kraftliner machine, SCA’s PM 2 in Obbola, Sweden.

The hybrid trade fair will provide a platform for forward-looking process and product technology innovations for the paper, pulp and fiber-based industries.

Saving CO2 emissions and energy are among the most important fields of action of our time. In recognition of this fact, Voith has developed a completely new, disruptive concept that allows CO2 neutral paper production. Moreover, the groundbreaking concept reduces fresh water consumption by up to 95 percent as well as energy consumption by up to 40 percent throughout the entire papermaking process.

As part of the sustainability program "Papermaking for Life," Voith has set the goal of supporting a 90 percent recycling rate by 2030 through new fiber streams and an optimized recycling process.

As an addition to the proven OceanCoat roll cover, Voith has now developed the OceanCoat P. The new coater backing roll cover is specially made for high-demand positions in blade coater applications.

Stora Enso has entrusted the leading full-line supplier Voith with the conversion of a former paper machine. The machine at the northern Finnish site in Oulu previously produced coated graphic papers.

The global interest of papermakers in water-saving solutions has steadily increased, with the effective use of water as a resource is an essential lever for sustainable paper production.

Quality control systems are an important factor in paper production to continuously optimize production and quality processes.
