ANDRITZ to supply calender for production of high-grade graphic papers to Shandong Tralin Paper, China

The 2-nip calender will produce high-grade graphic printing and writing paper with a basis weight of 40 to 60 g/m². The calender installed at PM9 (working width: 7,400 mm; production speed: 1,200 m/min) considerably reduces the two-sidedness of the paper web and increases its smoothness and gloss values, thus significantly improving printability and print image. Thanks to its broad spectrum of possible nip loads and roll temperatures, the calender also ensures bulk-preserving production of high-grade papers.
