Technical Service Support

As believed and understood by every papermaker that refining is the heart for good paper making. PARASON’s focus is always on the optimization of available refining resources.  We seek, collect, and process data and bar design implications resulting in the implementation of long-term improvements in the refining area.

Optimized Solution….Through Refining Audit

Reduce Refining Energy Consumption with Low Effort Solutions

Improving refining energy efficiency should be a priority in every mill. It’s a win from every angle. With energy efficiency comes lower energy consumption, lower operating cost, and increased operational flexibility.

Scissor Action

Refiner plates work on the principle of scissors. The multiple resolution and number of bar crossings create millions of scissors edges. Refining takes place at the bar edges, hence it is essential to have a right angle bar edge during refining.

It makes a lot of sense that a refiner disc should have uniform wear properties. Normally the variation in the wear of the refiner plates may be wavy, serrated, or flat type.

The wavy & serrated wear causes maximum fiber damage and multiple disadvantages of high power consumption, increased cost per tonne, load variations, etc. PARASON has innovated the concept of `ERP’ that is Edge Retention Property. During strenuous refining conditions, the ‘ERP’ plate has flat wear.

Casting is done by using the latest technology to provide the best condition for the alloys in temperature, time, melting technique to determine the best suitable alloy. Due consideration to properties of erosion, corrosion, wear resistance of refiner plates is taken care of.

Improved Energy Efficiency

PARASON DISC with `ERP’ has shown improvement in the energy consumption with power-saving from 6 KW / hr. to 22 KW / hr in various applications grossly. The power saved annually adds to the profitability of the mills.

Parason ERP Refiner Disc Change

Parason Segmental Refiner Disc 34“, 40“, 42“ & 48“DDR

Overhung plate designs with higher outer diameter, increase the capacity of the refiner & cutting edge length of the plate. Resulting in increased plate life and improved pulp quality with enhanced capacity.

Metallurgy of Refiner disc

There are three basic metallurgical properties required in any Refiner Discs

  • Corrosion resistance
  • Wear resistance
  • Breakage resistance

There must be a correct balance of these three properties. It is necessary to improve the toughness without sacrificing the wear resistance which is a great challenge. Parason has developed a wide range of metallurgy to suit the refining of various applications.

Newly proposed bar designs go through intensive R & D focused on field requirements like throughput, plate life & energy savings with a commitment to customer satisfaction..
