Precision engineered solutions created and designed for the paper supply chain

Fpz: side channel blowers

FPZ designs and manufactures side channel blowers for the compression and suction treatment of air and technical gases, supporting the paper and tissue industries in the processes of paper transformation. For over 20 years FPZ has been collaborating with a company specialized in the production of high pressure wet systems, offering blower models in aluminum alloy equipped with efficiency class IE3 electric motor for the suction of incandescent dust during the paper cutting. The sparks are sucked by the blower and turned into inert by a water filter. The work environment is at explosive risk and FPZ machines are ideal for supporting the process by having ATEX certification.

Harmony, power and simplicity in fluid handling

For another important customer FPZ supplies blowers to suck chip, dust and scraps deriving from processing in paper mills, allowing to keep the rolls of the machinery clean.
Thanks to FPZ’s customized solutions, customers can reduce the amount of waste and produce high quality products. Despite working in harsh conditions, a 3-year warranty is offered for the side channel blowers. For an important international customer FPZ has specifically studied and manufactured a blower capable of operating in particularly severe environmental and operating conditions. The application involves the suction of residues from the manufacturing process of the paper sector, of fabrics (with a high presence of high-strength fibers) that are deposited on large rolls whose surface is kept at very high temperature and washed with jets of pressurized water.

Doseuro: metering pumps

Doseuro is the business unit specialized in pumps and systems for dosing chemical, acid or basic products. In paper mills the pumps are used to remove pollutants, colloids, fibers, chlorides and sulphates from the water while the agitators are used in the treatment of cellulose inside the tanks containing water to keep the crumbled wood floating.

The JustSwitchOn panel is a new pre-engineered system designed to provide a complete dosing solution, ensure a good quality of the final product and good cost savings thanks to the maximum dosage accuracy. JSO systems include rugged PP frames for single or dual metering pumps and inlet and outlet discharge piping. The JSO panel is an excellent pre-configured solution, easy to install and ready to use.

Another product that guarantees considerable economic savings over time is the new RAPIDA 2.0 pump which, through the customizable 6-button digital control panel, allows to measure the real consumption of chemical products and change the pump settings immediately. Alternatively, it can be controlled by a proportional remote signal. “Quickly and Easily” is RAPIDA’s motto! The pump consists of a three-phase asynchronous electric motor together with an inverter board and it is designed to allow the motor speed to be changed according to requirements. It also features a timing working mode that allows to delay the start and define a specific working period, a customized management of the acceleration and deceleration ramp, a partial counter of the working hours.

Our methodology is a sample of our endless endeavour towards the improvement of products and processes

Arivent – industrial fans

Arivent produces centrifugal fans, generally used for the transport of clean, dusty, corrosive and abrasive air & gas and axial fans for both civil and industrial applications. Thanks to them it is possible to recover the volatile organic substances and the emissions generated by the printing and lamination processes.

The air flow generated by the centrifugal fans carries the solvents and the “VOCs” to the catalytic blast chillers where the former are treated to be reused as ink in printing processes and the latter eliminated. Finally, the fans can be used in suction to remove chips and dust from the work environment.  According to the customer’s request, fans with ATEX certification can be supplied.

RW centrifugal fans with 75kw motors are ideal for transporting paper and cardboard trimmings from processing cutters through a series of pipelines. The impellers are made of RAEX wear-resistant steel, equipped with replaceable knives in W1.2379 steel capable of shredding the paper and cardboard trimmings that arrive as production waste. This waste is then compacted and will be reconverted and put back into the production cycle.
