MDF Plant Construction

Since December 2008, Techinservice has been directly involved into the project for construction of  a MDF/HDF Manufacturing Plant – the first and unique manufacturing facility of such type in Ukraine.

The Plant is designed for manufacturing 900 m³ MDF per day which corresponds to the production output of 300,000 m³ per year.

For this project Techinservice manufactured and installed equipment for the following stages in manufacturing products that comply with the most rigorous Europeans Standards (EN) and German Standards (DIN), namely:

– debarking, chip production

– chip washing

– wood-fibre preparation and production

– fiber drying

– adhesive preparation and batching

– mechanical and pneumatic conveyors

– pneumatic means of transportation

– power generating plant

Due to the Company’s comprehensive work experience, technological potential and availability of highly qualified professionals, Techinservice also won a tender to manufacture and erect all steel engineering structures of the Plant with the total weight of 2000 tons, including:

– supporting (bearing) steel structures

– handrails, ladders and platforms for the press

– cable racks

In addition, Techinservice is a prime contractor for erection of all technological equipment and steel structures at this facility.

In particular, the following equipment was mounted:

– barking drum with diameter of 6 m, length of 20 m, weight of 120 tons and with rotation speed of 96 rpm;  

– forming and pressing line (a hot press – a so-called “the heart of the plant” with length of 100 m and weight of up to 1 000 tons);

– MDF cooler;

– grinding line;

– laminating line etc.

Reference: MDF is a material that is gradually replacing wood chipboard (DSP) and wood panel boards (DVP) in the furniture and building industries all over the world.     
MDF is a medium-density fiberboard manufactured by pressing wood fiber. This material is produced in the form of panels made of dried wood fibers treated with special binders and further pressed in the hot press to the density of up to 700-870 kg/m3. MDF has good hydrophobic properties (water repellency), high environmental criteria and complies with the European Standard EN 622-5. Medium-density fiberboards can be used as a base for lamination, pasting, veneering and dyeing.

HDF is a high-density fiberboard made of the same material and by the same method as MDF  but with application of the higher pressing pressure, which results in the increased strength and hardness of material. HDF is used as a base for laminated flooring.
