Tissue Converting Line Solutions
•Safety –
Improve overall line safety by providing visibility to inaccessible machine areas.
•Efficiency –
Improve overall line efficiency by solving the root causes of process interruptions via synchronized visibility of the web across all camera views.
•Quality –
Improve product quality by providing tools to identify quality problems and to reject poor quality product.
•Service –
Improve service capabilities with remote service offerings that include picture-by-picture visibility of stored events at up to 400 images per second.
Unwind
• Intelligent product allocation
and machine operation based
on knowledge of incoming
product quality (assumes web
inspection on base paper
machine), or
•Incoming product inspection
with optional poor quality log
ejection
• Determine if process
interruptions occur at the
unwind
Printer
•Online monitoring
of print quality
•Determine if
process
interruptions
occur at the
printer
•Possible
measurement of
print-toperforation
distance
(feasibility study
required)
Laminator /
Embosser
•Offline & possible
online monitoring of
embossing quality
•Online monitoring of
glue presence on
applicator roll (if
visible)
Rewinder
•Determine if
process
interruptions
occur at the
rewinder
Log Saw
•Monitor log saw
blade to determine
maintenance
requirements
•Measure log
diameter at +/1mm accuracy
•Determine if process
interruptions occur at
the
laminator/embosser
