Toilet Paper Production

The first step in the process of making soft tissue paper is creating paper pulp, which can be generated from Recycled Materials or new ones. Once the fibers are mixed with the wood pulp, they are bleached and then washed. The fiber is then placed in a mixing tank where the Manufacturers adds any Components that may be needed, such as dye. Tissue paper used for household purposes is normally dyed white, while decorative paper can be mixed with an assortment of dye colors.

Once the pulp is ready, it is pressed through two pressure rolls so that a majority of the moisture is squeezed out. Sometimes the pulp might be pressed only between two rolls for thicker paper, and other times it may undergo the pressure of multiple rolls for thinner paper. This leaves the pulp in a manageable consistency for the next step, which will completely dry it out and scrape it down to a thin sheet.

The pulp is processed with a Yankee dryer, a drying Cylinder heated by steam. This dryer puts the pulp through a process called creping; hence the term "crepe paper." The hood above the roller dries the pulp with a forceful heat as the roller turns and a fine blade scrapes the tissue down to the soft, desired thickness. The tissue does not get completely scraped away, because the roller is first sprayed with adhesives.

The long length of paper is reeled and cut with a machine, such as the Advantage Soft Reel, into appropriate lengths and sections after it is dried and thinned. Throughout the process of making soft tissue paper, there are times when the fibers are exposed to extreme heat. To keep the fibers from igniting, technology such as Met so's Advantage Wet Dust is used to keep eliminate air born dust from the area and keep the tissue machines clean.

The toilet roll production plant is a stationary one to be sourced locally. The plant is made up of the core cutting machine, core gluing machine, jumbo reel winding machine and band saw cutting machine.

How to save money by LPG

In the LPG Industry it is paramount that preventative maintenance be kept on the radar. How much do you really save by cutting maintenance and what is the true cost? Are the savings really worth the risk?

The following are 5 areas that can save you money if done right.

1. First is Pump selection. This is the heart of the system and you must refer to manufacturer's performance curves for the right information. Many don't actually do this. Look at the usage of the system that the customer is using now. Are they going to expand? Many customers may not mention this as they cannot see how this impacts your system, but it will! Slightly bigger now will save you much pain down the track.

2. Matching valve the pump with correct flow and volume. Use the right Valve for the job and specify requirements without a dollar figure in mind. Specifying on price as a priority will result in component failure in the future. Incorrect valving can be a technician's nightmare as it may mimic another problem and the technician can spend days going in the wrong direction.

For example, a client installed a $70 cheaper valve rather than a safer $110 valve that resulted in a major incident and explosion causing personal injury and a home to be burnt down.

3. Piping should always be the correct diameter for the pump. If it is too small the pump won't work correctly. Cavitation and running dry will destroy a pump.

4. Industrial Strainers stop foreign matter getting into the pump and prevent pump seizures and downtime. They must be installed to prevent costly replacement.

5. Electrics Makes sure that there is enough power plus margin to ensure the pump runs at the right speed. Pumps that run at the optimum speed will give you years of trouble free operation.

Many people have a question whether these areas need to be addressed. When your system is engineered correctly and you have a preventative maintenance system in place, you will have the benefit of a trouble Free LPG environment, minimal downtime and continued operation.

Doing it right the first time with the correct parts and equipment will provide long term savings that far outweigh the initial installation cost.

If there is a moral to designing LPG systems, think smarter, not cheaper. Think of the future, risk and cost to the service department who will continually have to repair your system. Similarly there is a major inconvenience to the customer. Your customer's perception of you and your reputation can be built on a professional installation, using the right parts and having a preventative maintenance program in place.
