compared to dry crepe – and less energy consumption in comparison to TAD.
Q: In your experience is IIoT and the use of Big Data via Metris technologies making a difference to production efficiencies? Will Metris applications be important for tissue producers in the future?
The Innovation and Application Center (PrimeLineTIAC) features a tissue pilot plant for the production of dry-crepe, structured, and textured tissue
A: Metris technologies are our answer to support the digital transformation. Metris OPP for example has been successfully used in many pulp productions plants since over a decade now. The implementation of Metris OPP provides remarkable results in
terms of savings and operational improvements. We expect the same excellent results for paper and tissue machines in the very near future. A strong service and customer support is of utmost importance. The Metris Performance Center
features various applications for a perfect global customer service and support by providing remote solutions, real-time communication and data analytics. This means Andritz is able to expand the service activities for papermakers around the world by putting an expert virtually in the mill’s control room whenever needed.
The latest innovation from ANDRITZ is the PrimeLineTEX tissue machine for the production of textured tissue, and was extensively tested at the pilot plant
Q: What does the future hold for tissue producers when it comes to the very best in technology from Andritz? A: Besides optimising and increasing the efficiency of dry crepe installations and on the new technology of the textured tissue, Andritz will still focus strongly on premium technology. In order to make this technology feasible for a broader market area, our focus will be to reduce the energy input significantly. The ideas and innovations are already in place, and our pilot plant offers the great possibility to test them extensively.
