A-Sizer - a new technology for surface application case study at a paper mill

To overcome the limitations of the conventional size press, Allimand has developed the technology so that it can use a higher consistency starch dispersion. The result is the A-Sizer which can apply all types of coating colours at a wide range of running speeds. The A-Sizer can perform on both high and low speed PMs. It enables the latter to extend the product range and develop niche products, while on high speed PMs, it eliminates bottlenecks at the size press.
