Demand for compressed air in paper industry

Paper Industry Compressed Air Demand and Granklin Air Compressor Solution

1. Core process requirements
the demand for compressed air in the paper industry runs through the whole production process, mainly including:

• pulp conveying and stirring: Pneumatic pump or stirring device is driven by compressed air to ensure uniform dispersion of pulp and avoid precipitation.
• Paper Forming and Drying compressed air is used to control the vacuum water absorption in the wire part of the paper machine, dewatering in the press part and purging in the drying part, which directly affects the uniformity of paper thickness and surface quality.
• Pneumatic control of equipment pneumatic components such as cylinders and valves are driven by compressed air, and stable air source is required to ensure the accuracy of equipment action.

2. Cleanliness and stability requirements

• no risk of oil contamination during the papermaking process, if the compressed air contains oil, it may adhere to the surface of the paper to form oil spots, or block the mesh filter, resulting in a decline in paper quality. Granklin air compressor through water lubrication single screw technology, to achieve zero oil output, completely avoid the risk of oil pollution.
• Continuous and stable gas supply: The paper machine runs at a high speed (up to 2000 m/min), and the interruption of compressed air may cause paper breakage and equipment downtime. Granklin air compressor adopts closed-loop cooling system and efficient heat dissipation design to ensure long-term stable operation and meet the continuous production needs of papermaking.

3. Special scene adaptation

• high temperature and high humidity environment: The humidity in the papermaking workshop is often above 70%, and the traditional air compressor is prone to rust or lubrication failure due to condensed water. Granklin water lubrication technology naturally discharges condensed water through the water circulation system, without additional dehumidification equipment, and adapts to high humidity environment.
• Dust and fiber shavings prevention and control: Pulp debris may enter the air compressor and affect the heat dissipation efficiency. Granklin air compressor adopts closed structure and high efficiency filtration device to reduce dust intrusion and prolong equipment life.

4. Energy saving and environmental protection advantages

• low energy design grankering air compressor reduces mechanical friction and improves energy efficiency ratio through the precise matching of single screw and star wheel, which meets the energy saving and consumption reduction requirements of paper industry.
• No waste oil treatment traditional oil-bearing air compressors need to treat waste oil regularly, increasing environmental protection costs. Granklin oil-free technology eliminates oil pollution from the source and helps paper companies to achieve green production.

Summary
the demand for compressed air in the paper industry focuses on cleanliness, stability and environmental protection. Granklin air compressors provide reliable and efficient compressed air solutions for paper companies with oil-free water lubrication technology, helping to improve paper quality, reduce maintenance costs, and meet green production requirements.
