Valmet to deliver a chipper feeding line upgrade to Unilin Panels in Belgium
23/12/2024 Valmet Automation Ltd
Valmet will deliver a chipper feeding line upgrade to the woodyard of Unilin Panels in Vielsalm, Belgium.
The order is included in Valmet’s orders received of the fourth quarter 2024. The value of the order will not be disclosed. The delivery will take place during the mill’s annual shutdown in the third quarter of 2025.
The mill’s current chipper feeding line is approaching the end of its lifecycle, leading to chip quality variation and limited production capacity. Mechanical wearing of inlet parts increases the risk of discharged metal parts in the chipper.
“The chipper feeding line upgrade with the new infeed chute, open top spout and durable chipper hood will extend the lifetime of our woodyard area and secure safe operation environment for our employees for the next years. We are looking forward to the upgrade and improvements in the chip consistency,” says Antoine Deparpe, Improvement Engineering Manager at Unilin Panels.
“We are thankful for this opportunity to deliver this customized solution to Unilin Panels, as it shows our expertise also in woodyard upgrades. We are looking forward to our skilled field service team taking care of the installation and helping the customer to take their performance to the next level,” says Nils Anspach, Product Sales Manager at Valmet.
