For its new site in Pagirai, Lithuania, thin-board specialist Homanit Group has ordered a complete low-emissions THDF plant from Dieffenbacher GmbH Maschinen- und Anlagenbau.
Dieffenbacher will supply all components, from debarking to stacking. The plant will deploy the latest environmental technology solutions in combination with the fiber dryer and a 50 MW energy plant, ensuring that emissions are minimized.
“Dieffenbacher has supported us with full commitment in our efforts to operate our new plant with the lowest possible emissions,” says Homanit Managing Director Ernst Keider.
The core of the plant features a state-of-the-art thin board forming and press line based on a CPS+ continuous press and a Dieffenbacher PROjet gluing system. Dieffenbacher is responsible for the automation of the new line.
The THDF plant is designed to keep emissions to a minimum while producing 1.5 mm to 22 mm thick wood fiberboards of the highest quality. A production volume of 310,000 m3 per year is planned, corresponding roughly to a daily capacity of 950 m3. Assembly is scheduled to start in the fall of 2021, with plant start-up to take place in the summer of 2022.
The Homanit Group is a European specialist in the production of thin, high-value-added wood fiberboards.
