Details: The combination of an 18ft PrimeDry Steel Yankee with the steam-heated hood enables highly efficient drying with substantial energy savings compared to conventional dryer sections with cast Yankee dryers and gas-heated hoods. The steel Yankee will be manufactured at Andritz China’s Yankee business center in Foshan, which offers customers state-of-the-art manufacturing, local field service, and quality management.
