improvements, EcoCal Plus technology enables papermakers to reduce their fibre consumption. This saving greatly improves the cost efficiency of the plant: an annual production of 500,000 tonnes with a one per cent saving in raw materials use translates into savings of around €250,000 per month. In practice, the savings potential is much higher: EcoCal Plus calenders have achieved bulk savings of up to 3.5 per cent, offering break-even after half a year, depending on the machine size. Alternatively, with the EcoCal Plus, lower-cost raw materials can be used to achieve the same board quality, which also drastically lowers production costs.


wire side helps to keep the wire edge as clean as possible and makes for a precise web edge. This both makes the threading


into the press section easier at a later stage, and minimises contamination and machine downtime.


In addition, the edge width can be independently varied from zero to 120mm on both sides and set while production is running.


Cooperation agreement between Andritz and PulpEye


Andritz and PulpEye have entered into a cooperation agreement to promote, market, and sell PulpEye analyzer technology exclusively in Andritz Pulp & Paper packages. The cooperation will enable


customers to benefit from improved online chip and fibre datalytics to optimise the correct process parameters in fibre lines and pulping processes,


for example by improving yield and optimising chemical consumption.


Andritz and PulpEye will also be able to provide customers with a remote online platform for operations support through IoT systems. PulpEye is an measurement


technology company focusing globally on online pulp quality analysis applications for the pulp


and paper industry. The PulpEye equipment is used to control the quality of any kind of pulp – sulfate and sulfite pulps, both short and long fiber, bleached and unbleached, TMP, CTMP and BCTMP as well as NSSC, OCC, and de-inked pulps. Recent product launches include modules measuring vessel cells and fiber wall thickness, as well as a fast consistency calibration module.
