On March 11, PAPEL TANGARÁ’S Yankee Cylinder was shipped.

It is a Smart Yankee Dryer cylinder, made of Steel.



Some data


Diameter: 4,880 mm (16’)

Face: 3,120 mm

Made of Steel

Welded heads

Grooved internal surface

With 6 condensate collectors

Operating pressure: 10 bar



The Cylinder was assembled in PAPEL TANGARÁ’S new MP2, which is in the installation phase.

The machine, which is being totally supplied by HERGEN, is the EVO 16 model and was designed to run at up to 1,600 m/min and produce 60 t/d.

HERGEN thanks PAPEL TANGARÁ for its trust and wishes the company success
in the final phase of this major MP2 installation project.







High performance with energy saving


Paper production consumes a lot of energy. In a Tissue paper machine, the drying process is responsible for about 70% of the machine's energy consumption. This means that a more efficient drying system results directly in significant energy savings.

Hergen Smart Yankee Dryer is made of Steel. Due to the mechanical properties of this material, its thickness can be significantly less than the ones made of Cast Iron, increasing the heat transfer by up to 35%, resulting in lower energy consumption for the same production.


Hergen quality

NO rupture risk due construction in carbon steel

Increase production: HIGHER HEAT TRANSFER UP TO 35% AS COMPARED WITH CAST IRON CYLINDERS resulting in higher paper evaporation ratio

Innovative condensate extraction system

Higher reliability with no risk inherent to the casting process, such as porosities or discontinuities

Two construction options for Head Covers: mounted with capscrew or welded to the cylinder shell

Metal surface with high hardness resulting in better creping quality

Excellent temperature profile

Steel plate material allows cylinders construction with any required diameter

Easy transportation: journals may be transported disassembled thus reducing the maximum load height
