Tail cutting solutions for board and paper machines 

Our tail cutting and widening solutions for forming, press and dryer 
sections provide better controllability and uniform tail quality for the tail 
threading process. Tail cutting is performed with water jets or by a mechanical cutter such as TailCutter, a reliable solution for heavy paper, board and pulp grades.

Temperature monitoring solution for board and paper machines 

Valmet Sheet Temperature Detector is a non-contacting temperature monitoring system. It measures either sheet or dryer surface temperature depending on case-specific circumstances and the operating status of the dryer section. It will improved tail threading and runnability.
