| The
trim fan is designed to chop twelve (12) ribbons of 1" trim
and convey same into an auto-ty baler, which also receives waste
from a Corelink stripper. The Corelink stripper automatically removes
the paper lift on the core of the roll. The roll is 86" wide
and will peel the paper off in access of 500 FPM. This paper waste
is conveyed to a Material Discharge Unit (MDU), which separates
the paper from the product. The MDU is 6'-7" tall and is very
compact. The air is filtered behind the MDU and the dust is deposited
into the baler. The air is cleaned to an efficiency of 99.999% to
one (1) micron. The air exits out the back of the MDU and into the
plant. The reject reams from two (2) packaging lines and the reject
hopper is conveyed to a second baler. The dust hoods from the sheeter
are tied together and have a dust-handling fan conveying the dust
into a high efficiency filter. Compressed air is used to pulsate
the filter media, which deposits the dust into a 55-gallon drum.
This filter is shared with a second fan system that handles the
punches from the sheeter. The punches are conveyed to a high efficiency
cyclone with a rotary valve under it. The punches are deposited
into a Gaylord container. This system is designed to run continuously
without stopping to empty drums or Gaylords. There is no baler personnel
in the plant, the operator on the sheeter picks up the bales.
Recently,
this plant broke the world production record for thirty (30) straight
days of 460 tons of finished product per day. Shortly after this
record the plant had a one (1) day record of over 533.7 tons in
one day.
Note:
It pays to
purchase the right equipment designed to handle the worse case
scenario. Conveying paper to a baler cannot be sized per hour,
but must be designed per second.
At
ASDI, we have never installed the same system twice.
Each one is customized to suit the customers' needs.
