Pulmac Inc’s Zero-Span Tester can
effectively define pulp strength. With
systematic sampling and testing, fibre
quality numbers generated by the Zero-
Span Tester will alert mill monitors to
creeping process changes before pulp
quality deteriorates beyond acceptable
limits. Automated zero-span testing will
tell you what you need to know, when
you need to know it in order to keep your
production running smoothly and your
customers happy. Direct improvements
to your productivity can include reducing
downgraded pulp, penalty payments,
and warehousing costs, all the while
improving communication links.
Once loaded the Zero-Span Tester will
perform 24 wet/dry zero and/or short
span tests and automatically compile the
results in a local database. Also available
in a manually-operated version.
The system can be configured to
automatically update a network database.
Pulmac fibre quality numbers are sensitive
to changes in fibre strength, length, and
bonding potential and, for machinemade
paper, fibre alignment.
