Dual Extraction System for Blue Star Ltd

Industry: Print & Packaging

Dust/Fume Type: Paper & Packaging Waste Recycling

Viking Ltd recently designed, supplied, and installed a dual cyclone extraction system for Blue Star, a leading name in the print and packaging industry. This solution was tailored to enable recycling of paper and packaging product generated by a range of high-performance equipment—efficiently, reliably, and with minimal noise. 

System Overview:

System 1 – Clean Paper Collection
This system services multiple machines including folders, stitchers, a guillotine, and a digital binder.
  • Airflow Capacity: 13,340 m³/hr
  • Key Components: A refurbished Viking cyclone, 30kW fan, and a large rotary valve 
  • Integration: Combined new and existing equipment to maximise cost-efficiency and performance.
System 2 – Packaging Extraction
Engineered to support a HÖCKER shredder and two air conveyors connected to a high-speed packaging line.
  • Airflow Capacity: 20,800 m³/hr
  • Key Components: A new Viking cyclone, 37kW fan, and a large rotary valve

Noise Reduction:
Noise control was a key priority for Blue Star. Both systems were equipped with:
  • Inline silencers
  • Insulated cyclone housings
  • Acoustic fan enclosures
These enhancements ensured effective waste management without disrupting the working environment.
