CREPING SYSTEM REPLACEMENT WORLD PULP&PAPER 40 The safety risks for the operator have been significantly reduced with the new blade extraction device to satisfactorily test both the quality and a new range of products with a maximum machine speed of 1750m/ min. The new, flexible doctoring solution guaranteed a more efficient control of the creping process; in addition, this solution has helped improve the service life of ceramic blades, which themselves proved more durable. Finally, it should be noted that the safety risks for the operator have been significantly reduced with the new blade extraction device; operators are now able to carry out this task in a far safer environment than before. Based upon mutual trust combined with clearly measurable benefits, the Oradoc & Essity partnership continues! Figure 5. Essity Maintenance Leader setting pressure regulation on Oradoc control panel.
