Optimize your tissue process!
Complementary products from BTG’s Duroblade® and Instruments portfolios can help tissue makers set new benchmarks for performance and cost control while further raising productivity.
To help customers streamline their process and maximize their profitability, BTG announces Total Tissue Capability – a comprehensive new approach comprising equipment, specialist know-how and consumables, all geared to optimizing your tissue operation.
Drawing on our engineers’ in-depth process knowledge, BTG Total Tissue Capability takes a holistic approach to tissue making, focusing on solutions that respond to customers’ real-life needs.
Total Tissue Capability addresses the fact that many localized problems have deeper, more complex origins. Issues which surface during creping, for example, often stem from undetected problems earlier in the process. Treated correctly, these can be remedied and even eliminated, so that the entire process runs smoothly and efficiently.
BTG’s Total Tissue Capability package leverages unrivalled process knowledge to deliver fast, effective solutions to your tissue problems.
Tissue issues?
Common problems reported by tissue manufacturers include unstable coating and release properties, leading to unstable sheet quality; blade life reduction through unstable wet end conditions; and the need to use increasingly large dosages of chemicals to achieve desired tissue properties, which is cutting into profitability. At the same time, tonnes of fibers are wasted daily through inefficient fiber recovery, when they could have been turned into revenue-generating products.
Many of these issues can be traced back to the unstable quality of raw material, process upsets in stock preparation and uncontrolled dosages of process and functional additives. As the industry’s leading technology partner for pulp & paper process equipment, BTG offers a broad portfolio of ultra-reliable products designed to deliver substantial production improvements and ensure the tightest control – for rapid return on investment.
BTG’s Duroblade creping blades and CBC creping blade holder boost productivity and quality by combining exceptional wear-resistance with improved performance.
BTG is also the global market leader in instruments for process control, including consistency measurement, chemical, mechanical and recycled pulping, stock preparation, and advanced wet end technologies.
To improve the creping process itself, we recommend our original high-performance Duroblade® doctor blades. Featuring a range of specialized ceramic blade tips, Duroblade maintains constant quality over time, protecting tissue structure easily degraded by the rapid wear-and-tear on conventional steel blades. Advantages include:
- Up to 2% increase in productivity
- Fewer blade changes – slow wear
- Finer crepe structure and better softness
- Better runnability in converting
- Reduced Yankee re-grinding frequency
- Substantial dust reduction.
Complementing Duroblade’s long-life performance, BTG’s unique, patented CBC™ blade holder delivers unrivalled creping productivity and quality. Featuring independent precision control of linear load and creping pocket angle, a self-adjusting blade and easy adjustment of blade height, CBC can help manufacturers reduce broke at paper grade changes by up to 75%.
With a string of ground-breaking technical patents, BTG is the undisputed leader in papermaking technology and process engineering.
Total Capability = Total Improvements
Combining Duroblade and CBC delivers an instant productivity boost by enhancing the quality and quantity of tissue output. But a holistic solution based on both BTG Instruments and Duroblade products can take production to a whole new level, thanks to proven consumables, state-of-the-art technology and unrivalled process expertise.
BTG’s sophisticated process sensors and analyzers are based on the latest advances in process analysis. Consistency and brightness transmitters, charge and retention analyzers and highly accurate lab instruments can help eliminate common process issues before they impact production efficiency and product quality.
BTG also offers a wide range of support services, including:
- Spare Parts: A comprehensive range of turnkey Spare Part Kits for BTG instruments, for simplified ordering and simplified renovation.
- Service: BTG service contracts offer guaranteed runnability and access to expertise when and where you need it.
