Integrated EcoMill / Urban Mill

Economical, environmentally friendly, regionally adapted: The Integrated EcoMill

Die IEM setzt auf vollständige Prozessintegration

 
 

The Integrated EcoMill (IEM) from Voith scores twice: fewer resources are consumed and at the same time investment and operating costs are lowered. This is facilitated by highly integrated sub-processes – both inside and outside the paper mill. The consumption of raw materials, energy and water is thus optimized, which yields tangible economic advantages.

“We can clearly reduce consumption of resources in paper production and support our customers in operating sustainably, while at the same time lowering their manufacturing costs,” explains Markus Oechsle, responsible for Order Processing at Voith Paper. Oechsle continues: “A big advantage of the IEM is how it can comprehensively take into account the various location factors and framework conditions to which we need to individually coordinate the mill concept.” more...
