1 TRACK A: YANKEE DRYER OPTIMISATION Steel Yankee Dryer TT SYD: Take Care of It! Riccardo Pierini Customer Care - Yankee Dryer Service Engineer, Toscotec SpA Italy Both during his years of university studies as well as after completion, Riccardo has worked for several chemical industries and paper manufacturing companies. After joining Toscotec he has been involved in the Tissue division from the beginning of his activity, in particular in the Service Department as Customer Care Yankee Dryer Service Engineer. Currently he carries out the Services on the Toscotec Steel Yankee Dryers worldwide. He is in charge of the field checks on the Yankee Dryer and during his job carries out internal inspection, structural checks and NDE, metallization inspection, chemical analysis especially regarding the steam and condensate plant, etc., but doesn t neglect to carry out technical surveys in all the Dry-end section. During his experience in these years has encountered the most common problems occurring in the Dry-end area (e.g. chatter-marks, organic coating problem, soda straws plugging, presses, hoods and doctoring problems, etc.) as well as was involved in the troubleshooting. In parallel with his Customer Care job, supports the Sales Department from the technical side and sometimes is involved in speeches and conferences focused on Yankee Dryer.

6 REGULAR MAINTENANCE Guidelines and TIPs Follow Guidelines and TIPs from the Supplier Manual Maintain Optimal Performance of the Yankee Avoid Damage of the Equipment Increase Life of the Yankee 5 Toscotec Steel Yankee Dryer Take Care of It!

7 REGULAR MAINTENANCE Best Practices Why Follow the Warm Up Procedure? ü Guarantees uniform heating of the Yankee Dryer; ü Guarantees uniform thermal expansion of the YD; ü Minimizes thermal stress when starting from ambient temperature. Why is the Water / Steam Quality important? ü Creates a thin and uniform layer of black oxide (magnetite) inside the YD; ü Avoids problem of plugging of the soda straw pipes. 6 Toscotec Steel Yankee Dryer Take Care of It!

8 REGULAR MAINTENANCE Best Practices Why is prohibited to pour cold water directly on the Yankee Dryer surface? ü Avoids local thermal shock Why is it necessary to work with proper doctor blade setting? ü Avoids problem on the YD surface Why is it necessary to respect the loads considered in the project of the YD (e.g. presses loads, Internal pressure, etc.)? ü Avoids over stresses of the YD 7 Toscotec Steel Yankee Dryer Take Care of It!
