ABB successfully delivers comprehensive automation and power to new tissue mill in Maine

Westerville, Ohio, August 3, 2016 - ABB recently commissioned the electrical and automation systems and equipment for the two new tissue production machines at St. Croix Tissue’s newly constructed mill in Baileyville, Maine. The first machine started production earlier this year.
ABB’s delivery for both machines at the new mill includes quality control systems, tissue machine drive systems, 800xA control systems, collaborative production management, as well as motors, drives, and electrification equipment and infrastructure, and a resident service contract. The integrated systems will provide a single window into all production activities to ensure the highest levels of process efficiency, product quality, power stability, and equipment reliability. 



“Our longstanding relationship with this customer, deep pulp and paper industry knowledge and ability to deliver the comprehensive scope of supply needed are important to the continued success of this project,” said Roger Bailey, Managing Director of ABB’s Process Industries business. “We are committed to providing our customers with the technology, products, services and support they need to make their operations efficient from the very first day of production. We are excited to be part of these new machine start-ups in the state of Maine.”

At the new mill, St. Croix Tissue will produce a full range of products for the growing national and international tissue markets, including paper napkins, paper towels, bathroom tissue and facial tissue. Two automated tissue paper manufacturing machines are expected to produce over 120,000 tons of tissue a year. Tissue paper production on one machine began in Q1 2016, and the second machine is scheduled to be up and running in Q3 2016.

The site is located next to its parent company, Woodland Pulp LLC , which will provide pulp for the new production mill.
