Digital solutions for increased energy-efficiency in papermaking

German-based testing device manufacturer emtec Electronic will exhibit an innovative product portfolio designed to improve processes and product quality, reduce waste and save energy at the Paper & Biorefinery trade conference from May 24-25 in Graz, Austria.

Organized by the Academic Paper Engineering Association of the Graz University of Technology (APV Graz), the annual trade fair brings together major names and newcomers from the pulp, paper and board industries for two days of idea exchange and networking. This year’s focus is on sustainable energy solutions, and the lineup includes presentations on disruptive materials, biomass, pulping and biorefinery methods, and more.

Equipment manufacturer emtec Electronic GmbH will participate in the conference as an exhibitor, presenting a range of solutions to common problems in the industry, such as poor coating ability, printability, or adhesiveness, resource waste in the wet end, and objective determination of haptic quality. emtec Electronic addresses each of these issues with the respective product solutions EST Surface & Sizing Tester, CAS touch! Charge Analyzing System and FPA touch! Fiber Potential Analyzer, and the TSA Tissue Softness Analyzer. Incidentally, the TSA has established itself as an industrial standard and has been featured in the TAPPI TIP (Technical Information Paper) 0808-07 (2021). In addition, emtec will present the FPO Fiber Potential Analyzer Online, a way to digitally integrate and automate the regulation of particle and fiber charge. The use of the FPO results in significant material, time and energy savings.

Conference attendees are encouraged to stop by the emtec Electronic exhibit to speak with Sales Area Manager Stefan Ruebesam for more information, to ask for a demonstration, and exchange ideas.
