Systems like OnCare and OnEfficiency are solutions that stem from the new Papermaking 4.0 concept. OnCare facilitates the maintenance man-agement of paper machines, from planning, servicing and documentation through cost control to spare parts management. Thanks to permanent monitoring of the entire paper machine, optimization potential can be iden-tified and preventive maintenance measures can be planned and imple-mented. Due to preventive maintenance unscheduled downtimes can be reduced and the availability of paper machines will increase. Unlike con-ventional software solutions, OnCare represents a complete maintenance concept, a distinctive feature of which is that data are already embedded in the software system. Likewise, it is possible to integrate OnCare in existing systems.
In addition, Voith also developed OnEfficiency to maximize the paper ma-chine’s potential. OnEfficiency Forming gets right to the process at the heart of papermaking: sheet formation. This is measured and analyzed with a package of sensors so that dewatering, retention and flocculation can be stabilized and at the same time coordinated. As a result of the stable process, raw materials and chemicals can be saved and energy usage reduced. As a general expert on the entire paper manufacturing process, Voith ensures that its customers benefit from a dependable documentation of practical experience in papermaking process management.
The increase in machine efficiency and improvement of paper quality are also at the core of the NipcoFlex T. At various paper mills, the innovative shoe press from Voith has already demonstrated that it can increase productivity and reduce costs. NipcoFlex T offers the benefits of up to 5% higher dry content, representing up to 20% thermal energy savings or up to 20% higher production, while maintaining the same or better paper quality. The production parameters of the press can be monitored online and re-adjusted if necessary.
Alfredo Sarli, Sales Manager at Voith Paper Air Systems, will be providing further insights into the latest work on tissue papers in his presentation “Energy Optimization of the Yankee Dryer Hood” to be held at 9:10 am on March 16, 2016 at the conference running alongside Tissue World.
