Valmet IQ Fiber Measurement - reducing industry's environmental footprint
Fiber weight and moisture measurement with infrared technology.
Simultaneously measuring fiber weight and moisture, Valmet IQ Fiber has replaced the traditional nuclear basis weight sensors. Close to 200 machines using virgin pulp to 100% recycled furnish committed to a single sensor for weight and moisture measurement and control, the need for nuclear safety training and licenses as well as the specialized service and safety requirements have been eliminated.
- A single non-nuclear sensor for both weight and moisture
- Ultra fast infrared measurement, measures fiber weight
- No radiation safety licenses or procedures
- Savings in fire protection procedures and training
- Also OD measurement is available at 1 kHz speed and 5 mm spot size which no nuclear sensor can match
Even up to 75% lower total cost of ownership
