On 7th July, Kipaş Kağıt successfully started up the first production line for containerboard at its Söke mill in western Turkey.
Voith supplied the entire mill with the latest production and automation technologies. The new PM 2 features a wide production and basis weights range. As a result, the machine now produces up to 700,000 tons of high-quality recycled corrugated casemaking raw materials annually with basis weights from 90 to 400 gsm. The new line has a maximum process design speed of 1,200 m/min and a wire width of 8.9m.
