3 Crucial Points To Remember For Optimum Paper Production

by Universal Engineering Corporation Suppliers Of Precision Testing Instruments in Saha

Be it any industry, small to significant, quality is that factor that remains common among all of them. Optimum quality at the lowest possible cost is the ultimate objective of the majority of manufacturers across the world. Paper manufacturers are among those. From preparing the stock to paper finishing, their central focus remains on making high-quality products at the minimum possible cost. And if they come across a poor quality in any of the stages in between, they follow a set of measures, mentioned below.

3 Crucial Points To Remember For Optimum Paper Production

Determining the Cause of Poor Quality

Analysis of paper structure and characteristics like fiber formation, orientation, curl, smoothness, gloss, etc. are tested in lab conditions to know the root cause of poor quality paper.

Improvements In Stock Preparation

Stock preparation is significant for both improved stock quality, energy savings, and high production efficiency. Using a high-capacity pulp refiner, the manufacturers can refine the pulp stock in the initial stage only, so that the desired strength can be achieved at controlled costs. Better printability, uniformity, bonding ability, etc. are also the result of proper selection and refining of pulp stock.

Surface Coating & Finishing

When it comes to improving the brightness, softness, gloss, opacity, etc. of the paper, then paper sizing, coating, calendering, and finishing are taken into consideration. UEC’s wire bar coater, for instance, is an instrument that is used to provide a uniform coating to the paper. Fluff testers, lab calendaring machines, printability testers, etc. are also surface coating and finishing testing machines that manufacturers use with the goal of improving paper quality.

Bottom Line

An improvement in the paper quality is never a choice but an essential decision of the manufacturer. Invest in paper and packaging testing machines by UEC to take a hike in your paper-making business. Contact us today.
