HERGEN has just shipped another new generation iNOVAFLOW Headbox. This time to VALPASA Indústria de Papel, a packaging paper manufacturer located in the city of Tangará, SC.

The investment has two main targets: to increase production and improve the quality of the produced paper. In addition to the new Headbox, the project also includes the expansion of the existing Fourdrinier.

Work in the field is well underway, with machine shutdown scheduled to August 14th -16th.

Know more about the new generation of iNOVAFLOW



Modern and stiff concept

This new generation stands out for its mechanical stiffness and much more refined geometric precision. Manufactured in 100% stainless steel, it has a constructive design that is more resistant and less prone to deformations under pressure.

The entire project was conceived based on advanced and highly efficient mechanical concepts designed and certified using the best engineering calculation systems, resulting in a product of excellence and high performance. During the tests, iNOVAFlow's robustness impressed the team, leading them to affectionately nickname it "MuscleHeadBox", in reference to the iconic robust and powerful American cars.

The ergonomic aspects of the new equipment comply with the highest safety regulations, prioritizing safety, and operability.


Flexibility and precision

To meet the specific requirements of each paper manufacturer, another highlight of the iNOVAFLOW is the flexibility to choose the most suitable system for basis weight profile fine tuning.

This new generation can be configured to offer profile adjustment via the dilution system, via transverse deformation control of the upper diaphragm or mixed, where both systems act simultaneously delivering results with very low 2-sigma values across the entire basis weight range.
