The Automated Chip Storage and Reclaiming Systemis a crucial component in the production processes of modern pulping, papermaking, and wood-based panel industries. It enables efficient and automated management of chip storage and supply.
Core System Advantages
Enhanced Production Efficiency and Stability: The automated system ensures continuous and stable chip supply, reducing production interruptions. For example, the GentleStore system can improve the flow to the digester, leading to greater stability in subsequent process stages.
Improved Chip and Pulp Quality:FIFO (First-In-First-Out) and uniform reclaim prevent chip spoilage from prolonged storage. Gentle handling (e.g., the GentleStore system allows chips to flow smoothly across the entire cross-section) reduces chip breakage. Stable level control (e.g., ensuring chip residence time in the bin is ≥25 minutes) is crucial for subsequent chip steaming and washing effectiveness.
Optimized Operational Costs: Automated operation reduces the need for numerous loaders and manual labor associated with traditional methods, lowering labor costs and maintenance expenses.
Increased Safety and Environmental Friendliness: Automation reduces direct vehicle and human intervention, enhancing safety performance. Furthermore, lower dust and noise levels improve the working environment.
Application and Selection Considerations
These systems are widely used in pulp mills, paper mills, and wood-based panel production lines** that require large-scale chip processing.
When selecting and designing a system, several key points require special attention:
Discharge Blind Zones: Early fixed-track screw reclaimers might have discharge blind zones (e.g., mentioned inability to discharge chips near the centerline), which modern system designs need to optimize and resolve.
Equipment Reliability: The potential for fatigue fractures in the screw reclaimer’s shaft is an issue that needs attention, as it affects the system’s continuous and stable operation.
System Integration and Energy Consumption: The chip storage and reclaiming system must be planned as part of the entire wood or pulp handling line. Simultaneously, replacing outdated equipment like high-energy consumption pneumatic conveying systems with efficient, low-energy automated systems helps reduce long-term operating costs.
