Parsytec introduces Dirt Count Technology
New solution for pulp producers
Dirt Count calculations compliant with TAPPI and ISO standard
Aachen/Germany – 25 August 2006. Parsytec AG – the world’s leading supplier
of surface and web inspection systems for strip products – announces its
latest product: an automatic Dirt Count solution for pulp lines. Parsytec’s
Dirt Count calculates the dirt spot numbers during the
production in real-time according to defined measurement standards, thus
ensuring highest quality of the produced pulp.
Parsytec developed a technology that will supersede standard laboratory
methods of calculating dirt count numbers: an automatic online Dirt Count.
A sensor with two illumination beams and one camera beam (all beams in
stainless steel) inspects the pulp surface during the production. The
software module then classifies the dirt spots and calculates the TAPPI and
ISO numbers for the manufactured pulp. These numbers are the crucial
criteria for the evaluation of the pulp quality.
The pilot project at Mondi Business Paper Richards Bay, South Africa, has
passed its practical test with great success as the responsible Mill
Manager, Donovan Barton-Hobbs, confirms: “Parsytec exceeded our
expectations: their dirt count technology did not only match laboratory
standards, but even surpassed them. The quality of our pulp has been
enhanced considerably – much to our customer’s satisfaction.”
Parsytec anticipates a relevant market capability for the application of
their new technology. Initially, Parsytec will approach 200 production
lines worldwide and subsequently access the complete pulp market with its
automatic online Dirt Count. Christoph Rau, Parsytec’s CEO, states: “Once
again Parsytec is precursor in the development and launch of new products
in surface inspection. The high creation of value, which is achievable for
our customers, will accelerate the market penetration.”
Parsytec AG is the world’s largest vendor of surface inspection systems:
today, all of the top 10 steel producers and 15 of the top 20 paper
producers apply Parsytec products. With more than 400 installations
worldwide, espresso by Parsytec is the most advanced surface inspection
system providing Parsytec customers with reliable and comprehensive
information about the relevant surface defects at all production steps. The
innovative software platform parsytec 5i enables customers to easily create
individual surface quality yield management applications and integrates
surface quality data with process data. Parsytec is headquartered in
Aachen, Germany, and maintains subsidiaries in North America, Korea and
China.
