single facer paper corrugation machine
Econo Facer
Improved performance and higher speed
The Econo Facer now fits well into a 1300 ft / min corrugator. It achieves production speeds of up to 1400 ft / min, thus outperforming the Advance Facer by 260 ft /min. It is designed in a working width of 110″ and therefore ideally equipped for all current and future requirements. Its highly efficient, water-cooled torque motor generates an increase of traction on the corrugating roll by 60%. Especially for the processing of heavy papers, the web tension is a decisive criterion for success. The improvement of traction enables significantly faster production speeds – even for heavy board grades.
Compact machine design
Irrespective of whether you upgrade your existing corrugator with a new Econo Facer or integrate it into a new line: Thanks to its compact dimensions, the Econo Facer requires little space and ensures easy installation on a level and flat foundation – even if the corrugator layout has already been specified.
Not only does our new Single Facer convince by its technical features – also from its outer appearance, the facelift becomes apparent. The Econo Facer appears in our new design and is therefore also a visual upgrade for your corrugator. Likewise, the visualization on the control panel of the Econo Facer was adjusted to our latest Style Guide, thus providing increased ease of use with greater clarity.
Highest safety standards
The new machine design with a housing for the heating elements and a new safety concept ensure highest safety standards.
To increase operational reliability even further, our FaceAligner – known from our Modul Facer® – is also available for the Econo Facer as an option. The FaceAligner offers perfect alignment of medium and liner paper to each other and to corrugator centerline, and the glue dams always follow the narrowest paper with the result: clean machines and no glue on the corrugating rolls – no sporadic medium fluff-out, and consequential stops in the corrugator!
Significant increase of heating capacity not requiring a larger installation space
The new heating cylinder PH 900 with associated hot plate has provided a boost in heating capacity of 70%.
Mature technology
The Econo Facer is based on decades of a long-established mature technology that has already proven successful worldwide with the Advance Facer. The corrugating roll cassettes of the Advance Facer and Econo Facer are therefore identical and can be interchanged – an advantage not to be underestimated especially for customers with large machinery. Likewise, the elaborate and well-known corrugating roll cassette magazine is available on drive side for up to three sets for the Econo Facer as well – this ensures short corrugating roll change times.
