Replace Infeed Discharge Screws with High Compaction Model

Refiner Products Manufacturing (RPM) has provided help on refiner systems to the wood products industry since the company began in May 1988. RPM has modified the designs and application of Sunds Metso refiners to allow for more production and more efficient operation.

In 2001, a customer in the Southeastern US was not happy with the steam usage on their Sunds Metso L-44 Defibrators and asked RPM to help them devise a solution that would not reduce their production, but help them reduce steam usage. Based on designs being utilized on newer series Defibrators, RPM helped the mill adapt High Compaction Screw technology to the Sunds L-series Defibrator. Without any production loss, the mill was able to reduce steam flow to each digester by approximately 50 %.

This modification work continued our effort to help the mills that do not have the luxury of upgrading to the next size Defibrator, but need to be the most efficient with the series equipment they presently own.
