Intro
蜜桃社区 Michigan University's Paper Pilot Plant is home to a 24 in (610 mm) wide Fourdrinier paper machine and together with its complete stock preparation and recycling plant can make paper from your fiber source of choice. The professional staff has years of papermaking experience who have successfully explored non-woven wet-laid products made of a variety of non-cellulosic fibers.
The pilot paper machine is not only an excellent product development tool, it also has value as a production machine for new products building a new market, and for products with low-volume markets and high-value sales.
