Product quality is critical in paper roll production. Until recently, it could only be assessed through samples taken after the process — too late to intervene effectively in case of deviations.
Available sensor data from the machines is used to build a virtual sensor that predicts key quality parameters during production — with a <5% error margin.
The AI’s enhanced prediction capabilities allow for parameters to be changed more promptly and throughout production. This enables resource-efficient production which precisely matches the required quality.
