With key components such as the new InduraClean heavy-duty cleaning system, the line is specially designed to handle high levels of contamination, a necessary requirement for Adami due to the nature of the raw material. The flexibility of Voith’s OCC systems in dealing with varying degrees of contamination was a decisive factor in Adami’s choice of Voith.

In addition to the OCC system, the order also includes 4.0 technology solutions for the autonomous operation of the stock preparation system. With the products OnView.MassBalance, OnControl.SmartProtect and the OnView.RejectCamera, the Santa Catarina mill is the first in Latin America to use these cutting-edge technologies. This move reflects Adami’s commitment to remain at the forefront of the industry and to develop innovative processes and technology.
