Abstract:
The Paper mills in which various GSM paper are manufactured. The manufactured paper is being used for newsprint and printout sheets. These papers are manufactured from the various pulp materials such as softwood pulp, hardwood pulp and imported pulp. The major production of the paper comes from softwood pulp. This softwood pulp is transferred for softwood storage tank which is located near the pulp mill to the paper machine. Due to improper maintenance and poor pump design the performance and productivity of the paper machine is seen to be affected. This project deals with the increase of productivity and performance of the paper machine by modifying the pump design and parameters such as the impeller diameter, vane angles, pressure head, vane width and pipeline layout. Thus the efficiency and flow rate of the pump get increased as the result productivity rate and economic benefits for the company is obtained.
