Ghelfi Ondulati: HE smart boiler for corrugated cardboard
Ghelfi Ondulati enhanced the efficiency of its corrugated cardboard production with an HE Smart SG 1000 boiler, delivering 10 t/h of steam at 20 barg. Equipped with advanced heat recovery, predictive control, and remote monitoring, the boiler ensures consistent performance, energy savings, and flexible operation for lean, zero-waste production.
Ghelfi Ondulati: the client
Ghelfi Ondulati produces and prints corrugated cardboard that is used to create high-quality packaging, displays, and containers for the Italian and broader European markets.
The challenge
The new thermal power plant reflects the lean philosophy embraced by the company: efficient production and zero waste.
The solution
The HE Smart fire tube steam generator provided operates at the highest level of constant efficiency in all conditions, including water feeding at a temperature of 160°C. Our proprietary heat recovery system makes maximum use of heat produced by combustion, thus keeping a constant low flue gas temperature (max 85°C) in the chimney.
The boiler is equipped with control and management systems that ensure:
- Efficient and flexible steam production in line with process requirements
- Constant operation of the boiler at its optimum point
- Constant remote access to the boiler to check its performance and quickly identify any anomalies
- Predictive boiler management
