Fluoron’s Radiant Cleaning System

In the vibrant world of the pulp and paper industry, maintaining machinery is at the heart of optimal production. For paper factories, especially in North America, the dryer section is a pivotal component. As maintenance managers, plant managers, and key decision-makers know, the health of the dryer cylinder often equates to the efficiency of the entire operation.

However, what if there was a method to further enhance that efficiency? A way to ensure that the dryer cylinder not only operates seamlessly but also contributes to a significant uptick in overall production quality? Enter Fluoron’s Radiant Cleaning System.

Frequently Asked Questions

How does the Radiant Cleaning System help with fewer sheet breaks?

Average production down time due to paper breaks caused by dirty dryer cans can average 160 minutes per day. With clean cans, 60 minutes per day. This is a saving of 100 minutes per day, 533 hours per year, or 22 days of production (additional income).

How does dryer can cleaning reduce steam and energy costs?

A clean dryer should consume about 1.1# steam for each pound of H2O  removed. Dirty dryer cans will increase steam consumption to 2+ pound/pound of H2O removed. This almost doubles the steam usage at a cost of $10-$25/ton of production (savings).

How am I able to increase productivity with Fluoron’s Radiant Cleaning System?

With clean dryer cans, the machine speed will increase. One mill claims that a 1% increase in speed on newsprint paper, increase income by $1500/day and on directory paper by $3500/day. This means on a 320-day year almost $500,000.00 for newsprint and $1.1 million for directory paper.

How long does the Radiant Cleaning System take?

Fluoron’s Radiant Cleaning System is remarkably fast, living up to its claim as the world’s fastest dryer cleaning system. The service typically cleans 4-12 dryer cylinders simultaneously in a 10-12 hour outage. This high-speed cleaning can often be completed in a single shift during a regular monthly maintenance outage.In some cases, Fluoron can clean up to 12 cans in 12 hours with their expert technicians and cutting-edge process
