Our conviction in S-Press pays dividends

A recent S-PRESS installation at the company IBO Ondulati in Italy has proved a great success.


IBO run a modern 2800mm wide MHI Corrugator. However, they could not run their heavy-weight double-wall grades at the speeds they required. With the board grade K275/S135/T130/S135/K275 the maximum speed achievable was 190 m/min.

Upon investigation, it was discovered the problem lay with the poor performance of the existing Double Facer Heat Transfer system. We were confident enough to offer a guarantee that S-PRESS would run in excess of 235 m/minin and therefore an order was placed.

Almost immediately following the installation of the S-PRESS, the customer was able to increase the maximum speed for this board grade from 190 m/min to 265 m/min and at the same time reduce the Double Facer power consumption by 20% confirming S-PRESS as the best performing and efficient system in the World today.

Another S-Press success in Italy

We recently installed a S-PRESS retrofit at the company S.I.F.A., situated in central Italy and owned by the Trasarti brothers.


S.I.F.A. made the decision to decommission their existing shoe-type heat transfer system and replace it with S-PRESS. This important decision was made with the expectation of eliminating constant down-warp problems when running E-flute at speeds of 250 m/min.

Following the first two weeks after the installation, the customer was particularly pleased not only because the down-warp problem was resolved, but the S-PRESS had also given even more benefits, including:

  -  Flatter, drier board

  -  Reduced glue consumption, i.e. 1 gsm/m2 reduction

  -  Reduced main drive power consumption of between 30kW - 40kW

  -  Increase in double-wall speeds to 250 m/min

  -  Increase in E-flute speeds up to 300 m/min

  -  Elimination of edge-bond problems on all 7 paper widths.
