Efficient Networking towards Novel Products and Processes
Work Package 7: Management of web uniformity based on imaging measurements
EffNet is a Forestcluster-funded project targeting on the applications related to paper industry.
Introduction
EffNet program is direct continuation of "Intelligent and resource efficient production technologies" (EffTech) program started in June 2008. The program provides new research based solutions to improve resource efficiency and to accelerate development of new fiber based products and process concepts. The goal of the program is to improve the competitiveness on the whole forest cluster by developing radically new energy and resource efficient production technologies and by finding means to reduce the capital intensiveness. The target is to improve the entire cluster's efficiency, flexibility and sustainability. The EffNet research program consists of 10 Work Packages (WP).
Work Package 7 focuses on image-based measurement methods for quality in papermaking. This project develops methods such that the functional properties of fiber-based products can be developed, and also managed in production, at a radically improved degree of specificity and scope. The methods are a necessity in the development and production of new high added-value products. The project develops both entirely new measurements characterizing structures and quality, and a procedure for transferring image-based research and off-line methods to on-line measurements and for quality management.
Goals
The purpose of EffNet WP7 is to
- characterise the web uniformity in micro and macro scale for control applications and to predict printing characteristics
- provide means for the management of functional web properties with control chemicals
