Allgreen Timber Products from Malaysia ordered a particleboard plant, while the second order came once again from the Metro-Ply Group.
The board producer, based in Thailand, ordered a THDF plant, including the new CPS+ press. This takes the total number of complete plants sold by Dieffenbacher so far this year to seven plants, with three of these including the new continuous press CPS+.
Advanced Fiber, part of the Metro-Ply Group, is establishing a THDF plant at its Kanchanaburi site with a capacity of 928m2/day.
The scope of supply ranges from dryers to sanding lines. The core element of the THDF plant is the new Dieffenbacher CPS+ 265 – 28.5 press. It is designed to work at speeds of 2100 mm/s and presses THDF boards with a density of 1.5 to 25 mm.
The particleboard plant for Allgreen will replace an existing Bison plant with an old 2 daylight multi-opening press from Dieffenbacher at its Segamat site in southern Malaysia. The plant, with a CPS 265 – 26.5 press is designed for a daily output of 800m2 of particleboard.
