Case Study: MM Neuss achieves significantly fewer web breaks with Valmet Machine Diagnostics

MM Neuss reduces calender web breaks with Valmet

The customer, MM Neuss, was experiencing web breaks when closing the calender on its board machine. Valmet's Machine Diagnostics tool alerted them to an issue of uneven calender closing, which prompted a request for on-demand expert support to address this challenge.

Valmet remotely investigated the problem from its Performance Center, identifying the source of the issue. The Valmet team then optimized the DS loading cylinder, nip closing controller parameters, and web draw set values. As a result, calender operation was stabilized and web breaks at the calender were significantly reduced.
