HEATING SOLUTIONS FOR AUTOMATIC 3/5 PLY BOX PLANTS
Boilerless Heating Solutions Designed for Indian Corrugators
The transition to automatic 3/5 ply corrugation plants brings significant advantages in terms of productivity, speed and automation. However, for many Indian box manufacturers, the conventional boiler-based heating system has been a significant barrier to adopting automatic plants.
At Electro Heat Engineers, we have spent years developing heating solutions specifically with the practical realities of operating in India in mind. Our heating systems have been developed, installed and proven across more than 100 automatic box plants.
Importantly, these solutions are not adaptations or copies of Chinese systems. They have been engineered around the infrastructure, operating conditions and practical requirements of Indian corrugators, helping customers adopt automatic technology more easily and economically.
MOVING BEYOND THE BOILER
For many years, boilers have been an integral part of automatic corrugation plants. However, they can also create significant practical challenges for box manufacturers, particularly smaller and mid-sized manufacturers.
These include:
- High initial investment
- Requirement for substantial infrastructure
- Licensing and regulatory requirements
- Additional manpower
- Significant space requirements
- Environmental considerations
- Maintenance requirements
- Operational complexity
For the large number of Indian box manufacturers whose production requirements are below 600 tonnes per month, a conventional boiler-based heating system may therefore involve infrastructure and investment that is disproportionate to their actual production requirements.
Electro Heat has developed boilerless heating solutions specifically to address this gap.
BOILERLESS HEATING OPTIONS FOR AUTOMATIC PLANTS
We offer multiple heating configurations for automatic 3/5 ply plants, covering machine speeds of up to 50 metres per minute.
| Heating System | Suitable Speed |
|---|---|
| Direct Electrical Heating | Up to 30 MPM |
| Direct Gas Heating | Up to 30 MPM |
| Electric Thermic Oil Heating System (ETOHS) | Up to 50 MPM |
| Gas Thermic Oil Heating System (GTOHS) | Up to 50 MPM |
| Electrical / Gas Steam Heating | Up to 50 MPM |
This range allows manufacturers to select a heating solution based on their machine speed, infrastructure, energy source and production requirements.
WHY CHOOSE BOILERLESS HEATING?
Our boilerless heating solutions have been developed to make automatic corrugation technology more accessible and practical for Indian box manufacturers.
USER-FRIENDLY
Designed for straightforward operation without the complexity associated with conventional boiler systems.
COMPACT
The systems can be installed in a relatively small area, making them suitable for plants where space is at a premium.
NO LICENSING REQUIREMENT
The solutions eliminate the licensing requirements associated with conventional boiler installations, subject to applicable local regulations.
EASY TO MAINTAIN
Designed for simpler maintenance and reasonable operating costs.
LOWER MAINTENANCE
Fewer infrastructure and operational complexities translate into reduced maintenance requirements.
FAST INSTALLATION
The systems can be installed quickly, helping manufacturers minimise disruption and start production sooner.
ENVIRONMENTALLY COMPLIANT
Designed with environmental considerations in mind.
QUICK HEAT-UP
The heating systems heat up quickly, helping reduce waiting time before production.
MAKING AUTOMATION MORE ACCESSIBLE
For many Indian corrugators, adopting an automatic 3/5 ply plant is not simply a question of machine speed. The heating infrastructure required to operate the machine efficiently is equally important.
Electro Heat's boilerless heating solutions address this challenge by offering compact, practical and easy-to-maintain alternatives to conventional boiler-based heating.The result is a more accessible route to automation — particularly for manufacturers whose production requirements do not justify the cost, infrastructure and complexity of a conventional boiler system.
