“Valmet Paper Lab provides
papermakers with tools to manage quality and optimise the papermaking process impact,” says Jukka Nokelainen, business manager of Valmet Paper Analyzers. “In addition
to laboratories, today paper testing is increasingly carried out by operators, right next to the production line. By receiving rapid, reliable test results, operators are able to quickly make necessary
adjustments and get back to running paper production on- spec. This is directly linked to optimal raw material and energy utilization as well as minimized environmental. “An increasing number of papermakers have been convinced of the ability of the Valmet Paper Lab to match their needs and requirements in today’s paper making. Our solution gives papermakers freedom to move – from the lab right out next to the line – to give them the instant interactivity and real-time communications they need for faster results.” To present the system in action and enable paper and board makers test its performance in their own mills, Valmet has a trial lab unit available for test use.
Paper that protects odd-shaped parts from corrosion
A newly-launched corrosion inhibiting protective paper could offer benefits for maintenance engineers in paper making plants.
CorShield VpCI-146 Reinforced
Paper from Cortec offers protection for ferrous and non- ferrous metal components that are pointed, oddly shaped, or have sharp edges that would normally puncture non-reinforced papers. The paper creates a protective layer that does not need to
be removed prior to further surface finishing or coating application, eliminates package contamination by using natural grade paper, provides a barrier to water, oil, and grease, and is non-toxic, containing no nitrites, phosphates, silicones, chromates, or other heavy metals. The CorShield VpCI-146 paper
is available in widths up to 2.5 metres. More information from www.
