In 1997, Pasaban designed and manufactured a KDD 2200 paper and board sheeting machine for Domtar Paper Company (USA). After more than 20 years, an update on the equipment was necessary in order to ensure its functionality for a further 10 years.  

For this, a two-phase machine was done. During the first phase, Pasaban replaced the most critical systems such as the main actuators and press control, the transversal cutter and the fast band and the slow band. Leaving open the possibility of a second phase for the renovation of the electric brakes actuators and controls.   

This project concluded with the placement of a new PC and a PLC with updated software, including the specific maintenance software "Pasaban drives software". The latter was used to verify the new digital regulators as well as an online service via the TeamViewer remote control application.  

 “Thanks to Pasaban our machine is running smoother, cooler and with higher quality since the upgrade”. 

“We have eliminated several “black boxes” and have made it much easier to get technical help from Pasaban” - Maintenance Manager at Domtar

All of these improvements guarantee the best possible operating conditions for the machine, minimizing downtime caused by operational reasons, and ensuring the provision of spare parts for several years.
