Bolton Emerson Americas, LLC is a private corporation selling its products and service worldwide to the pulp and paper, biofuels, biomass, recycling, converting and cabinet/furniture industries.Over 100 years ago Bolton Emerson Americas began business as the Eagle Knife and Bar Company providing quality wear items for the pulp and paper industry, manufactured with the best materials available with consistently precise processes. Over the years, Bolton Emerson's pulp and paper division has divested itself of many ancillary product lines and is now concentrating on maintaining quality processes that made it famous by promoting equipment to improve the paper and other emerging industry's efficiency and bottom line.One of the keys to our success is the introduction of our patented TORNADO pulping size reduction systems in some cases followed by our CLAFLIN refiner. No other pulper can do what the TORNADO can do for treatment of difficult recovery of wet strength broke either under the machine or off machine. In addition the TORNADO operates either on a batch or continuous basis, as the mill requires, for the efficient processing of non-woods such as cotton, hemp, flax and synthetic fibrous materials.The Pulp and Paper Division also manufactures the Emerson Jordan, Magnitrap, Frazier screens as well as wear items such as Jordan and CLAFLIN fillings, TORNADO rotors and stators and spare parts for all Bolton Emerson Americas, LLC machinery.In addition our Converting Machinery Division manufactures the well-known BEA/Park Hot Melt Coater available for application of hot melt thermal reactive coating and Coater/Laminators for pressure sensitive applications. We have also entered into the cabinet machinery business with the TL-1060 Laminator for thermal lamination of pre-coated papers for single or double sided flat line lamination of hot melt coated paper to various boards.We believe our future lies in our determination to continue the standard of quality set by our founders many years ago and our commitment to help the new emerging industries, pulp and paper industry and the converting industry increase productivity through new applications of improved equipment. We also believe our continuing research plays an important role in assisting the industry toward new milestones of alternative fiber sources through recycling and more efficient pulping processes.Bolton Emerson Americas, LLC is the originator of the patented TORNADO pulping system and the CLAFLIN refiner. New TORNADO pulping units and CLAFLIN refiners are manufactured here at our factory in Salem, NH. Hundreds of new TORNADO pulpers and CLAFLIN refiners have been supplied to the industry since their introduction years ago. Many are in operation worldwide. Our rebuilding program was established years ago for this equipment. If you are considering the rebuilding and upgrading of your equipment the procedure is simple and as follows:Upon notification, send us your CLAFLIN refiner or TORNADO pulper freight prepaid. For a nominal fee we will disassemble the machine, inspect all parts, determine their condition and send you a proposal for an “as new” rebuild with a new machine warranty. If the proposal meets with your approval your order will be entered into our system and you will be advised as to a deliver schedule.If for some reason you do not wish to proceed, upon payment of our nominal fee the machine will be returned to you at your expense.The same general conditions apply for rebuilding of our 4D Disc refiners and Emerson Jordans. An additional benefit for Jordan owners is our plug filling service. Many mills are experiencing the loss of talent for filling a loose bar Jordan plug filling. Upon notification the mill can ship the Jordan plug to our facility where we will remove the old woods and knives and replace them with new ones. We will then ship that plug along with a new shell filling back to the mill for installation saving them the time of filling it in house.
