One of the novelties is Metso DNA Pulp Reporting, which features an easy-to-implement, web-based, mill-wide reporting application. It collects key data from all pulp mill departments and transforms it into pre-defined reports, along with drawing up a comprehensive mill overview. The hierarchical structure, consistent layout and simple navigation make the solution easy to use. The package is to be customized according to each mill’s application-specific needs. Another novelty is the introduction of advanced delay calculation applications in pulping processes. Until now, mills have had to calculate process delays and follow, for example, grade changes manually, which is very time consuming. Very often, these delays make it difficult to find causes behind quality defects and to track real production costs, according to Metso.
