Application
Various chemicals are used in paper manufacturing to achieve the desired properties in the end product. The media are supplied directly to the production areas in IBC containers and added to the paper suspension via metering pumps. Level measurement ensures the supply for the ongoing processes. The stocks are continuously monitored, which allows a dwindling level to automatically trigger an order for replenishment from the chemicals distributor.
