ANDRITZ to Showcase Digital Innovations and Sustainable Solutions at LIGNA 2025

(IN BRIEF) ANDRITZ will present its latest innovations at LIGNA 2025, focusing on the ANDRITZ Smart Die, a tool designed to optimize pellet mill efficiency through real-time data analysis. The company will also showcase its extensive product portfolio, including solutions for biomass processing, waste-to-value recycling, and wood fiber substrates, as well as its high-performance PM30-6 pellet mill and Metris digital platform.

(PRESS RELEASE) GRAZ, 21-May-2025 — /EuropaWire/ — ANDRITZ, an international technology group, will showcase a wide range of solutions at LIGNA 2025 in Hanover, Germany, from May 26-30, with a particular focus on its latest digital innovation: the ANDRITZ Smart Die, a stand-alone tool compatible with any pellet mill.

In feed and biofuel production, maximizing efficiency is crucial, as even minor production losses can significantly impact profitability. The ANDRITZ Smart Die addresses this challenge by integrating advanced sensors into the pellet press. These sensors continuously collect real-time operational data, which is transmitted to the Metris digital platform for visualization and analysis, enabling producers to make data-driven decisions.

The Smart Die offers several key benefits, including:

• Lower cost per ton of production
• Elimination of die shortages
• Consistent pellet quality
• Real-time tracking of die wear, energy consumption, and throughput

In addition to the Smart Die, ANDRITZ will highlight a range of made-to-order solutions designed to help customers reduce costs and minimize environmental impact. The comprehensive portfolio featured at LIGNA 2025 includes waste-to-value recycling solutions, wood processing equipment, cutting-edge panelboard services, biomass processing equipment, and innovative technologies for producing wood fiber substrates.

A key exhibit will be the PM30-6, a high-performance pellet mill tailored for biomass production. The PM30-6 enhances throughput while minimizing maintenance needs, making it an ideal choice for operators seeking higher efficiency. Visitors will also have the opportunity to explore Metris, ANDRITZ’s all-in-one digital platform that combines advanced technology with the company’s deep industry expertise to drive digital transformation in the sector.

ANDRITZ will be located in Hall 26, Booth D27 at LIGNA 2025 in Hanover, Germany, from May 26-30.
