Indonesia’s largest MDF manufacturer, Sumatera Prima Fibreboard (SPF), headquartered in Jakarta, has entered the particleboard business by purchasing a complete CEBRO particleboard and Super Particleboard (Super PB) plant from Dieffenbacher for its site in Indralaya.
SPF’s order includes glue preparation and dosing, gluing, forming station and forming line, a CPS+ continuous press system and a raw board handling system. The order also includes the latest MAIER flaking and milling equipment: three new MAIER Knife Ring Flakers type MRZ 1500 PLUS with FlowOptimizer, the fully automatic MAIER Knife Ring Maintenance Center and two MAIER Impact Mills.
“After this year’s Ligna trade fair, I visited Dieffenbacher’s headquarters in Eppingen to get a first-hand look at the new MAIER Knife Ring Flaker and the MAIER Knife Ring Maintenance Center,” said Michael Pribadi, operational director at SPF.
“The Knife Ring Flaker is an impressive machine whose high performance is immediately apparent. Together with the Knife Ring Maintenance Center, we’ve invested in cutting-edge technology that will put us at the forefront of technological advances in flake processing and help us achieve operational excellence.”
The new MAIER Knife Ring Flaker type MRZ 1500 PLUS has a compact footprint and high performance, thanks to 3D material distribution via the FlowOptimizer and an extra-wide knife ring. The automated Heavy Particle Separator is designed to have easy and precise adjustment of separation efficiency, enabling improved material cleaning.
The new complete plant order continues SPF’s relationship with Dieffenbacher. In 2017, SPF replaced the old sifters in its first MDF line with a Z-Sifter from Dieffenbacher.
The new complete CEBRO particleboard and Super PB plant will have a total annual production capacity of 478,500m³. Assembly in Indralaya has begun, with commissioning planned for the end of 2026.
